[MW:1553] Re: burn thrugh

Burn trough is a nonstandard term for melt through.
 
"melt-through.- Visible root reinforcement in a jointwelded from one side." - AWS 3.0
 
I'm not a structural eng but for tubular k,y,t conections where the inspection inside the pipe is difficult is preferrable guarantee full penetration and fusion, may be a structural could give us a better explanation.
