1 Modification to Clause 2 “Normative references”
Add the following references:
“EN ISO 5817, Welding — Fusion-welded joints in steel, nickel, titanium and their alloys (beam welding
excluded) — Quality levels for imperfections (ISO 5817)
EN ISO 10042, Welding — Arc-welded joints in aluminium and its alloys — Quality levels for imperfections
(ISO 10042)
EN ISO 10863, Non-destructive testing of welds — Ultrasonic testing — Use of time-of-flight diffraction
technique (TOFD) (ISO 10863)
EN ISO 13588, Non-destructive testing of welds — Ultrasonic testing — Use of automated phased array
technology (ISO 13588)
EN ISO 15626, Non-destructive testing of welds — Time-of-flight diffraction technique (TOFD) —
Acceptance levels (ISO 15626)
EN ISO 19285, Non-destructive testing of welds — Phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) — Acceptance
levels (ISO 19285)”.
2 Modification to 3.2.4
Replace the title of 3.2.4 with “Welding imperfection symbols (used in Table 3, Table 6 and Table 7)”.
3 Modification to 4.3 “Inspection for modification of a tank”
Add the following note at the end of 4.3:
“NOTE The certificate for modification meets the requirements of the certificate referred to in 6.8.2.3.4 of RID [1]
and ADR [2].”
4 Modifications to 5.3.6.1 “General”
Replace paragraph 7 of 5.3.6.1 with the following amended text:
“When the joint coefficient λ is less than 1 and when the presence of an unacceptable defect is noted in
the tested portion of a weld, NDT shall be extended to a portion of the weld with a length at least equal to
that which has just been tested on each side of the defect. If this additional NDT gives rise to the
observation of a new unacceptable defect, NDT shall be extended to all remaining welds made according
to the same procedure. Repaired welds shall be inspected according to the same method as the original
welds. Rectified welds shall be verified against the minimum thickness.”
