other approved non- destructive tests.
1. Ultrasonic testing shall be performed by a specially trained, qualified
technician, who shall operate the equipment, examine welds and
maintain a record of welds examined, defects found and disposition of
each defect. Cost of repairing and retesting of defective welds shall be
born by the Contractor.
2. Initially, welds requiring ultrasonic testing shall be tested at the rate of
100% in order to establish qualifications of each individual welder. If
rejectable defects occur in less than 5% of the welds tested, the
frequency of testing may be reduced to 25%. If the rate of rejectable
defects increases to 5% or more, 100% testing shall be reestablished
until the rate is reduce to less than 5%. Percentage shall be calculated
for each welder independently.

interpreted as either a weld defect or the backing strip, the backing
strip shall be removed at the expense of the Contractor, and if no root
defect is visible, weld shall be re-tested. If no defect is indicated on
this retest and no significant amount of the base and weld metal have
been removed, the joint need no further repair or welding. If a defect
is indicated, it shall be repaired at no expense to the Owner.

4. Questionable root indications that prove not to be defects shall not
count against the welder to increase test rate.
5. Ultrasonic results shall be evaluated by the independent laboratory to
clarify the quality of the welds in accordance with AWS D1.1.,
Appendix L Part C.
6. Other methods of inspection, for example, x-ray, gamma ray,

laminations in accordance with ASTM designation A578.
2. Material in designated location shall be tested for laminations by
ultrasonic means prior to fabrication, with written reports submitted to
Architect and Structural Engineer.
3. Detection of Laminations : Rejectable defects discovered by ultrasonic
means are defined as follows : Using suitable calibrated ultrasonic
equipment, any recordable discontinuity causing complete loss of back
reflection and which cannot be encompassed within a 7.5 cm diameter
circle is unacceptable (Level II Standard of Acceptance).
J. Retesting of Welds and Laminations in Field : Approximately 25 percent of

girder to column moment connections shall be retested in the field. These
connections shall be retested after the welds area approximately 30 days
old. Similarly, recheck column material for laminar tearing.
