3、orrigenda/Editorials ABSGUIDE FOR NONDESTRUCTIVE INSPECTION OF HULL WELDS .2011 iii Foreword Foreword This Guide is the fourth edition of the Guide for Nondestructive Inspection of Hull Welds, which was originally published in 1975 and subsequently updated in 1986 and 2002 (the second and third edit

4、ions). This revision aims to introduce further details of inspection criteria and additional inspection techniques, which are considered as being widely recognized by the industry as a reliable means of inspection of structure members and their welds during the construction of surface vessels and ot

5、her related marine and offshore structures. It is intended that this Guide for test procedures and criteria is to be published as a Guide, rather than Rules, in order to collect more feedback from industry during its use and be able to reflect this feedback back into the Guide in a timely manner. Up

6、on completion of this further calibration period, the Guide is to be published as the Rules for Nondestructive Inspection of Hull Welds. This Guide becomes effective on the first day of the month of publication. Users are advised to check periodically on the ABS website www.eagle.org to verify that

7、this version of this Guide is the most current. We welcome your feedback.

37、.2011 1 Section 1: General SECTION 1 General 1 Preparation for Inspection (1 September 2011) 1.1 Weld Surface Appearance Welding in hull construction is to comply with the requirements of Section 2-4-1 “Hull Construction” of the ABS Rules for Materials and Welding (Part 2) and IACS Recommendation No

38、. 47 “Shipbuilding and Repair Quality Standard”. Methods used for preparing and cleaning welds and nondestructive test procedures are to be to the satisfaction of the Surveyor. Slag shall be removed from all completed welds. All welds and adjacent base metal shall be cleaned by wire brushing or by a

39、ny other suitable means prior to inspection. Surface conditions that prevent proper interpretation may be cause for rejection of the weld area of interest. 1.3 Visual Inspection of Welds Welds are to be visually inspected to the satisfaction of the Surveyor. Visual inspection acceptance criteria are

40、 contained in Section 8 of this Guide. Visual inspections of welds may begin immediately after the completed welds have cooled to ambient temperature. However, delayed cracking is a concern for extra high-strength steels, 415 N/mm2(42 kgf/mm2, 60,000 psi) yield strength or greater. When welding thes

41、e high-strength steels, the final visual inspection shall be performed not less than 48 hours after completion of the weld and removal of preheat. Refer to 1/1.5 below for requirements for delayed cracking inspection. 1.5 Inspection for Delayed (Hydrogen Induced) Cracking 1.5.1 Time of Inspection No

42、ndestructive testing of weldments in steels of 415 N/mm2(42 kgf/mm2, 60,000 psi) yield strength or greater is to be conducted at a suitable interval after welds have been completed and cooled to ambient temperature. The following guidance of interval is to be used, unless specially approved otherwis

43、e: Minimum 48 hours of interval time for steels of 415 MPa (42 kgf/mm2, 60,000 psi) yield strength or greater but less than 620 MPa (63 kgf/mm2, 90,000 psi) yield strength. Minimum 72 hours of interval time for steel greater than or equal to 620 MPa (63 kgf/mm2, 90,000 psi) yield strength. At the di

44、scretion of the Surveyor, a longer interval and/or additional random inspection at a later period may be required. The 72 hour interval may be reduced to 48 hours for radiography testing (RT) or ultrasonic testing (UT) inspection, provided a complete visual and random MT or PT inspection to the sati

45、sfaction of the Surveyor is conducted 72 hours after welds have been completed and cooled to ambient temperature. 1.5.2 Delayed Cracking Occurrences When delayed cracking is encountered in production, previously completed welds are to be re-inspected for delayed cracking to the satisfaction of the S

46、urveyor. At the discretion of the Surveyor, re-qualification of procedures or additional production control procedures may be required for being free of delayed cracking in that production welds. Section 1 General 2 ABSGUIDE FOR NONDESTRUCTIVE INSPECTION OF HULL WELDS .2011 3 Methods of Inspection (

47、1 February 2012) Inspection of welded joints is to be carried out by approved nondestructive test methods, such as visual inspection (VT), radiography (RT), ultrasonic (UT), magnetic particle (MT), liquid penetrant (PT), etc A plan for nondestructive testing is to be submitted. Radiographic or ultra

48、sonic inspection, or both, is to be used when the overall soundness of the weld cross section is to be evaluated. Magnetic-particle or liquid penetrant inspection or other approved method is to be used when investigating the outer surface of welds or may be used as a check of intermediate weld passe

49、s such as root passes and also to check back-gouged joints prior to depositing subsequent passes. Surface inspection of important tee or corner joints in critical locations, using an approved magnetic particle or liquid penetrant method, is to be conducted to the satisfaction of the Surveyor. Where a method (such as radiographic or ultrasonic) is selected as the primary nondestructive method of inspection, the acceptance standards of that method govern. However, if additional inspection by any method should indicate the presence of defects that could jeopardize the
