NOTES:
1/ VT inspection shall be made on each test assembly per 5-4.1. For titanium and titanium alloy welds, see 5-4.1.1. NDT shall be per 5-4.1. 2/ UT inspection in accordance with NAVSEA T9074-AS-GIB-010/271 may be substituted for RT inspection for plate welds. Acceptance criteria shall be per MIL-STD-2035, class I. 3/ See 5-2.5. 4/ RT of pipe shall be 360 degrees. RT of plates shall be performed along the entire length, except that 1 inch on each end of the weld will not be evaluated. Acceptance criteria shall be per MIL-STD-2035, class I. 5/ Use of the gas metal arc-short arc process for groove weld qualification of any material shall require UT inspection of the test assembly in addition to all other tests and inspections. Where thickness is below that allowed by NAVSEA T9074-AS-GIB-010/271 for normal UT inspection and for S-8 materials, six transverse macro-etch specimens shall be substituted for UT inspection. 6/ When the qualification test consists of root layer only or root plus one layer, four macro-etch specimens shall be evaluated to the requirements of 4-5.2.6 in lieu of RT or bend tests. When the joint is welded without addition of filler metal or without internal purge, root bends as described in footnote 7 are also required. 7/ When the qualification is for joints welded from one side without backing rings or preplaced inserts, root bends with the root surface in the as-welded condition (no machining, grinding, etc.) are required when the root is welded without the addition of filler metal or without internal inert gas purge. 8/ See 5-3.6. 9/ For welds in S-51, S-52, S-53, and S-53A materials: (a) Bend tests shall be used in lieu of RT, except that both bend tests and RT are required for test no. 5 and 6 for joints welded from one side with no backing or consumable insert. (b) Two macro-etch specimens separated by 90 degrees for pipe or 2 inches for plate are required for all joint types. 10/ For aluminum butt weld qualification, RT shall be employed, except for personnel exclusively welding non- critical sheet metal items (e.g., NAVSEA S9074-AR-GIB-010/278, class M-2C) where bend tests are acceptable. 11/ For cladding, where composition testing is required by 5-3.4, perform composition testing per figure 7-17, note 4.
