Hi,

I have found this:

you determine both your a/l and your a/t for a given thickness. This will likely require linear interpolation(s). You then compare your a/t% to your a/l for that thickness. If your a/t% falls below the allowable a/t% for that thickness, the flaw is allowable.

General formula…

Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) is a crucial aspect of the manufacturing process, as it helps to ensure that parts and structures meet required standards. In many industries, third-party NDT inspection is mandatory to guarantee impartial and objective evaluation of the parts and structures. However, some companies attempt to circumvent…

Amine cracking can occur in carbon steel pipelines, which are commonly used in the oil and gas industry. The degradation of amine-based chemicals can lead to corrosion in the pipelines, causing the steel to degrade and potentially leading to leaks and other operational issues. This is why proper selection and use of amine-based chemicals, as…

Hi! I am in need of some expert advice.

I have a section of piping that has been inadvertently submerged in water for several years. The pipe was discovered recently with lots of general corrosion on its surface in the form of loose scale and rust.

The remaining pipe thickness must be found. The fear is that if we try to clean a section of…

I am seeking info regarding the indications shown in the image.

This is a training test piece for MT; however, I have also observed similar indications when testing aircraft bolts and other components (strut fittings, etc). They are straight, linear with no visible indication under a microscope.

I am looking to see what is causing…
