Hello. I am wonder what the weld geometry of a Cat. D butt weld would be? Would this be considered a inserted plate for a forged nozzle (oval or square with rounded corners)or a beveled circular opening for a full penetration nozzle weld that would have a bevel on one side and the nozzle neck...
I have been to several conference were phased array was the headlining topic. From what the speakers were stating phased array is the furture of NDT - no more gaps in production (fabrication) due to RT/Xray, plus better records of the completed inspection.
I have a friend with his Level II...
