    Hi,

    Please guide me i our project for power plant we have did RT and the film density was not good but Hydrotest all went on well. Now due to some issue the Films was reviewed and found the density not good. Now they plan to do PAUT . Almost joints shows defect in PAUT .

    If we redo the RT thouse defect shown in PAUT will be eliminated

    don’t understand the question.

    Is it about differences between PAUT vs RT detection? if so then those are just two different methods to detect discontinuities in the volume material which can detect the same discontinuities OR one method can detect some discontinuities while the other cannot.

    The code stablishes different acceptance criteria for each of these two testing techniques.
