UT vs Radiograph

UT vs Radiograph

UT vs Radiograph

(OP)
I have vessel with internals crossing the girth seam. My customer is ok with performing the UT. I have been told that I have to watch out because there is a code case that is involved but they could not direct me to it or what it says. My vessel is carbon steel (SA-516-70) and is 1/2" in thickness. For my NDE company, this is standard and they have a procedure covering it. Is there something special that I need to know about?

Thanks
JM

RE: UT vs Radiograph

Jman69,
Code case is 2235.
I have Code case 2235-2 which states it must be on 1/2" or greater thickness and must be automated UT, not manual.
However I thing there are later versions of that code case, maybe someone else can assist.
Regards,
Kiwi

RE: UT vs Radiograph

Actually this Code Case has been incorporated into the 2010 Edition of ASME Section I.

Thanks Kiwi. Metengr, you say it was incorporated into Sec. I of 2010, is it also in Sec. VIII?
