How Ultrasonic Testing Ensures Quality of Steel Structures
In manufacturing, quality control is a top priority, especially when it comes to structural integrity. One common practice among manufacturers for maintaining high quality is the thorough inspection of complete joint penetration (CJP) welds. These welds, often found on thick plate materials such as base plates or flange plates, play a crucial role in the strength and durability of large structures like transmission poles and frameworks. A common quality inspection used on these structures is Ultrasonic Testing (UT). In this blog, we’ll dive into the types, benefits, and challenges of UT Testing.
