You should check that you do indeed have the current code. There have been quite a few changes to Articles 4 and 5. If you inspecting welds you have to go by the requirements of Article 4, Article 5 is for materials (ie; castings, forgings, bolts....). ----------- Start Original Message ----------- : Hi, : In ASME Section V, 2007 edition, Art. 4 titles "UT examination for welds", while Art. 5 titles "UT examination for materials". : Nonethless, Index at pages 630-631 (2007 edition) reports different titles for Art. 4 and 5; : moreover, in Art. 5 index, pag. 631, it is stated "Basic calibration block (Welds), Art. 5, T-542.2.1".
