Re: [MW:11764] PQR testing with RT & UT

This is recommended to assure having a defect-free specimen.
Mechanical test specimens shall be removed from the areas without defects so that results are reliable.
That's all...!!!

You can do that with any kind of NDT you prefre

EN has made this a mandatory clause for PQR but not ASME

I prefer to do that for cases other than common because it saves me the trouble...!!!
