Acceptance Criteria : Power plant pressure part Radiography
Acceptance Criteria : Power plant pressure part Radiography
(OP)
Dear All,
I am working in a power plant construction project as QA/QC Engineer. To review the radiography films of various pressure parts should I refer ASME Section I or B 31.1 ?
Kindly help.

Please do not take this personally but if you are a QA/QC Engineer what are you doing asking on an internet forum what code you are working to ?
Part of your scope of work is to ensure the compliance with relevant codes - these codes should be detailed in contract documents, project specifications, line lists etc.
Metengr has given his usual sound advice but let me take it a bit further.
What is the construction code ? If it is built in accordance with Section 1 then that is your acceptance criteria and if it is built in accordance with B31.1 then again, that is your acceptance criteria.
Both Section 1 and B31.1 give detailed diagrams of which jurisdiction applies to what - strongly suggest you start familiarising yourself with both codes,
Regards,
