Record 3 2011-06-08

English

Subject field(s)
  • Joining Processes (Metals)
DEF

An interruption of the typical structure of a weldment, such as a lack of homogeneity in the mechanical, metallurgical, or physical characteristics of the material or weldment. [Definition standardized by the AWS. ]

CONT

The radiation produced by X-ray tubes and by isotopes such as Iridium 192 and Cobalt 60 can look through welds to reveal discontinuities invisible to the human eye. The soundness of critical joints is laid bare on the radiographic film. The radiographer can then interpret the indications on the film and measure any discontinuity against the acceptance criteria of the applicable code. Repairs can be made as necessary. The radiographs are a permanent record of weld quality.

OBS

A discontinuity is not necessarily a defect.

OBS

discontinuity: term standardized by the American Welding Society (AWS)

  • Assemblage des métaux
DEF

Interruption de la structure type d'un matériau ou d'un ensemble soudé tel que manque d'homogénité des caractéristiques mécaniques, métallurgiques, physiques ou géométriques. [Définition normalisée par la CSA.]

Record 4 2011-05-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Welding and Soldering (Metals)
DEF

A crack formed in a weldment due to the segregation of low-melting constituents in the weld metal at grain boundaries.

OBS

This type of defect is caused by grain-boundary tearing under thermal contraction stresses. It may be prevented by the use of low-impurity welding materials and proper joint design.

OBS
