Dear experts,

As per ASME 3.1.& 31.3 socket weld gap requirement is 1/16" before welding. Whether it is required for after welding, if its require kindly provide the code details.In our project we're done RT for socket welds. But after welding did not find the 1/16" gap, its less than 0.5mm. Our client decision is to cut and reweld the all joints.

 

 

Thanks & Regards,

Naresh
