Welding, because of certain obvious advantages it offers, has been very rapidly replacing the conventional methods of fabrication used in the manufacture of vessels to stand pressures, low, medium and high. This change over to a newer fabricational technique since the Second World War calls for elaborate and extensive testing methods for defects to overcome the natural human resistance to adopt the non-conventional technique.
In this review paper, an attempt has been made to highlight the probable defects generally met with in welded vessels along with the inspection techniques.

Abstract


Welding, because of certain obvious advantages it offers, has been very rapidly replacing the conventional methods of fabrication used in the manufacture of vessels to stand pressures, low, medium and high. This change over to a newer fabricational technique since the Second World War calls for elaborate and extensive testing methods for defects to overcome the natural human resistance to adopt the non-conventional technique.
In this review paper, an attempt has been made to highlight the probable defects generally met with in welded vessels along with the inspection techniques.
