Good Afternoon,
During a dye penetrant examination of Static package steam turbine blades, we found out several indications on blades foil.
Indications are rounded with several diameters 4 mm-16 mm and one is located on the weld toe (16 mm). I've being looking for a std to evaluate the severity...

Good morning everyone, perhaps someone may help to clarify a point
I´ve being inspecting some storage tanks welds, During our last inspection we found 2 mm undercut depth on the external surface of shell just besides the external fillet weld on the shell to bottom joint.
If you go on to API 650...
Good Morning,
Perhaps someone can be of assistance. I am qualifying a procedure to Butt weld steel which is under the specification API 5CT Grade K55. This is normally used in drilling and we use it in geothermal application for vapor under 300 psi and 180 C.
I´m trying to find an API RP or API...
Good Morning Everyone, Perhaps somebody can be of assistance with the following issues
We have a situation with a power boiler evaluation, design conditions on plate are 72 kg/cm2 and 483 C.
Furnace tubes are 3" OD.
We would like to calculate the minimum required thickness per ASME CODE SEC 1...
This might be unsual and I will appreciate any opinion
We were qualifying a mmanual GTAW WPS to weld stainless steel sheet metal 0.040" thick. We use about 40 A and a travel speed range between 2-4 in/min. Gas flow used was about 20 CFH and we use also backing gas. Electrode used was 0.035"...
Hi Everyone,
Perhaps somebody can be of assistance. I'm evaluating if a WPS can be used for a specific procedure. In our country we normally use AWS and ASME, I have no Equivalencies for S700MC to an ASTM or AISI, I found on a web site that it might be equivalent to A514 but it doesn't match in...
Hi Everyone,
I will appreciate a lot if someone can provide an idea about how shoul I proceed in this case.
I have a customer that request to perform the evaluation of some pressure vessel for vapor service.
Neither his organization nor me were able to find documentation about the vessel such...
Hi everyone, perhaps somebody may be of assistance, I was inspecting a Ti weld Ti 6 AL 4V, I´m concern due that after repair it was cracked within the weld, it was repair and after another inspection it continues to crack and so on..I´m aware that some codes or spec. does not allow to repair...
Hi everyone
I'd like to know your opinion for the following case:
I'm quite familiar with the elaboration of documents such as WPS or PQR and WPQR when using for example ASME code SEC IX or AWS D1.1 concerning pressure vessel or steel structure erection. I have a collegue that consult me what...
Good Afternoon Everyone,
I'm looking for a standard applicable to perform inservice inspection of Underground storage tanks for gasoline and Diesel, I have found something at API.org however I would like to know if there is something else essentially for the evaluation of remaining thickness or...
Hey there, Just on equestion, When performing pressure test on a water tube steam boiler, is there any recomendation about the rate pressure should be increased until reached the test pressure I mean how many Psi we must increase per minute untiel we reach the pressure requeired?
best regards!
Good afternoon,´We are trying to perform an etching on MAIN LANDING GEAR SLIDING TUBE of an Airbus A320 yo detect overheating, just for curiosity the material SPEC referes to an steel NCT-10-130-11, does anaybody KNows what kind of steel could be? is there any ASTM or SAE or AISI equivalency? I...
Hi! When performing infrared Testing of electrical panels, I have found that some components such as relay or timers have a temperature rise over a 40ºC of 20ºC and sometimes 30ºC even 54ºC. As I have been informed electric and electronic components are dseigned to perfectly operate if the...
Hi!I'm performing UT measurment on a steam boilers tubes. According to the drawing is a material that is specified as BRistish Standard 3059. If anyone of you May know the ASME equivelence (SA-XXX) or may Know the maximum allowable stress for a Temperature under 900 F, I will appreciate if he...
Greetings to evreyone of you.
We are doing a thickness measurement for controlling gas containers for domestic use (normally for cooking). We have a standard where it is stated that "All containers which external diameter exceed 152.4 mm (6 in.) shall have a minimum wall thickness not...
Hi to everyones, Could someone help me with this problem?
We purchased two furnaces for heat treatment. The timers of this furnaces have on their surface just the specification "50 Hz". In my country electrical power supply is 60 Hz. According to the manufacturer the furnaces function...
Hi To all of you, Does anybody Knows The allowable Strees of High Alloy steel plate 18%Cr9%Ni type 304 at 500 F, according to ASME Sec. II part D. I need this data to evaluate the severity of measures in a thickness measurement inspection on pressure vessel. I only have sec. V and Sec VIII div...
