I think,this is not a backing,because this is to make sure for the welder confirmation. it is happen in normal practice that after welding of single v groove of plate and to be confirmed by visual to confirm the full penetration..and if the penetration is good...many(All) times the welder need to confirm by themself by grind to some depth after confirm by visual (1 or 2mm max..) to make it look good appearnce as well as to avoid any discrepancies in RT.(even it can accept in Rt without grinding) As far as my experience and Customer,AI witness.. it was accepted as without backing...
Thanks & Regards,

YES – it is welding with backing. See QW-402.4, non-essential variable for both SMAW and GMAW and an essential variable for welder performance qualification for both processes per QW-416. "QW-402.4 The deletion or the backing in single welded groove welds. Double welded groove welds are considered welding with backing."

Subject: [MW:10463] Backing As per ASME SEC IX ,we qualified PQR(SMAW/GMAW process) with 8mm/10 mm thickness plate full penetration welding( Root Land:1mm to 1.5 mm) as root ,hot and cap welding and then back/root side of plate was grounded(approx 2mm) to sound metal and one pass of cap welding was done in root side. My question is whether is method is considered as welding with backing or with out backing it is considered as backing. how? Regards, kvr --
