Dear Friends   As per ASME 3.31.3 gap is given at the time of fit-up and offcurse after weding that gap will be less than 1.5 mm because of  shrinkage due to welding heat. the meaning of RT is nothing but radiography test and i think your client might have asked you to perfom Rt to check whether 1.5mm gap has been provided or not not rejected.

Of course, gap will be less than 1.5 after welding, but it is not rejected. What's the meaning after RT?, it is strange to perform RT on the fillet weld.
