Plate Girder
Plate Girder
(OP)
We need to erect a crane beam. The required size isn't available on the local market so we plan to use a "built up beam" (I would normally refer to this as a plate girder). Anyone got any advice on NDT, the welds will be fillet welds so I think the best option is 100% MPI. Are any other tests required - the steel will be grade 43A i.e mild steel plate.

At one time it was essentially ANSI/OSHA now just a cursory look it looks like the MHIA, mainly CMAA has gotten involved.
