KENT CRANE <br /> INSPECTION AND ENGINEERING <br /> APPENDIX <br /> Table 8.1 <br /> Visual Inspection Acceptance Criteria(see-4.9) <br /> Statically Loaded Cyclically Loaded <br /> Nontubulaz i Nontubular <br /> Discontinuity Category and Inspection Criteria Connections Connections <br /> (1)Crack Prohibition X X <br /> Any crack shall be unacceptable,regardless of size or location. <br /> (2)Weld/Base Metal Fusion <br /> Complete fusion shall exist between adjacent layers of weld metal and between weld X X <br /> metal and base metal. <br /> (3)Crater Cross Section <br /> All craters shall be filled to provide the specified weld size,except for the ends of X X <br /> intermittent fillet welds outside of their effective length. <br /> (4)Weld Profiles X X <br /> Weld profiles shall be in conformance with 2.23. <br /> (5)Time of Inspection <br /> Visual inspection of welds in all steels may begin immediately after the completed welds <br /> have cooled to ambient temperature.Acceptance criteria for ASTM A514,A517,and X X <br /> A709 Grade HPS 100W[HPS 690W]steels shall be based on visual inspection <br /> performed not less than 48 hours after completion of the weld. <br /> (6)Undersized Welds <br /> The size of a fillet weld in any continuous weld may be less than the specified nominal <br /> size(L)without correction by the following amounts(U): <br /> L, U, <br /> specified nominal weld size,in[mm] allowable decrease from L,in[mm] <br /> <_3/16[51 51/16[21 X X <br /> 1/4[6] <_3/32[2.5] <br /> >_5/16[8] <_1/8[31 <br /> In all cases,the undersize portion of the weld shall not exceed 10%of the weld length. <br /> On web-to-flange welds on girders,undemm shall be prohibited at the ends for a length <br /> equal to twice the width of the flange. <br /> (7)Undercut <br /> (A)For material less than 1 in(25 mm]thick,undercut shall not exceed 1/32 in[1 mm], <br /> with the following exception:undercut shall not exceed 1/16 in[2 mm]for any accumulated X <br /> length up to 2 in[50 mm]in any 12 in[300 mm].For material equal to or greater than 1 in <br /> [25 mm]thick,undercut shall not exceed 1/16 in[2 mm)for any length of weld. <br /> (B)In primary members,undercut shall be no more than 0.01 in[0.25 mm]deep when <br /> the weld is transverse to tensile stress under any design loading condition.Undercut shall X <br /> be no more than 1/32 in[1 mm]deep for all other cases. <br /> (8)Porosity <br /> (A)CJP groove welds in butt joints transverse to the direction of computed tensile stress <br /> shall have no visible piping porosity.For all other groove welds and for fillet welds,the X <br /> sum of the visible piping porosity 1/32 in[1 mm]or greater in diameter shall not exceed <br /> 3/8 in[10 mm]in any linear inch of weld and shall not exceed 3/4 in[20 mm]in any 12 <br /> inn-360 mm�len o weld- <br /> (B)The frequency of piping porosity in fillet welds shall not exceed one in each 4 in[100 <br /> mm]of weld length and the maximum diameter shall not exceed 3/32 in[2.5 mm]. <br /> Exception:for fillet welds connecting stiffeners to web,the sum of the diameters of X <br /> piping porosity shall not exceed 3/8 in[10 mm]in any linear inch of weld and shall not <br /> exceed 3/4 in[20 rrun]in any 12 in[300 nun]length of weld. <br /> (C)CJP groove welds in butt joints transverse to the direction of computed tensile stress <br /> sha11 have no piping porosity.For all other groove welds,the frequency of piping porosity X <br /> shall not exceed one in 4 in[100 mm]of length and the maximum diameter shall not <br /> exceed 3/32 in[2.5 nun]. <br /> Note:An"X"indicates applicability for the connection type;a shaded area indicates non-applicability. <br /> 4/26/2024 <br /> KCIE_BURTON CONSTRUCTION_EVERETT MARINA_BUILDING CANOPIES_WELD INSPECTION REPORT_2024.04.19 <br /> Page 5 of 5 <br />
