1 Scope
This part of GB/T 3323 specifies techniques of radiographic examination of fusion welded joints of metallic materials.
This part is applicable to the radiographic examination of welded joints of plates and pipes or other welded joints.
This part does not specify acceptance levels for radiographic examination of welded joints of metallic materials.
If contracting parties apply lower test criteria, it is possible that the quality of tested image is declined significantly.
Note: This part meets the requirements of GB/T 19943, and the detector used is film.
