DEFECTS OBSERVED IN RADIOGRAPHIC TESTING What is Radiographic Testing * It is the non-destructive testing to observe the various defects in the weld joints. * It is most common in Piping fabrication workshops. * 100% weld joints in High pressure vessels/pipes are radio-graphed. How radiograph testing is done in case of piping spools. * The welded joint is placed before the undeveloped film. * The source emits x-rays or gamma rays which penetrates through the welded part. * The bead formed by weld pool is having different density as compared to the parent material and hence it allows less or more rays to pass through it.Finally we get imprints on the film. For a perfect joint , Joint efficiency factor should be more then 1. We are assigning particular film for certain marked welded joint to re-weld in case of defect.
