2、sion.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method2provides a uniform procedure forradiographic examination of metallic castings using radio-graphic film as the recor
3、ding medium.1.2 Due to the many complex geometries and part configu-rations inherent with cast products,it is necessary to recognizepotential limitations associated with obtaining complete radio-graphic coverage on castings.Radiography of areas wheregeometry or part configuration does not allow achi
4、evement ofcomplete coverage with practical radiographic methods shallbe subject to mutual agreements between purchaser andsupplier.The use of alternative nondestructive methods forareas that are not conducive to practical radiography shall alsobe specifically agreed upon between purchaser and suppli
5、er.1.3 The radiographic method is highly sensitive to volumet-ric discontinuities that displace a detectable volume of castmaterial.Discontinuities that do not displace an appreciablevolume of material,however,such as cracks or other planar-type indications,may not be detected with radiography unles
6、sthe radiation beam is coincidentally aligned with the planarorientation of the discontinuity.In view of this limitation,itmay be considered appropriate to use the radiographic methodin conjunction with additional nondestructive methods thatmaintain reliable detection capabilities for these types of
7、discontinuities.The use of additional methods shall be specifi-cally agreed upon between the purchaser and supplier.1.4 The radiographic techniques stated herein provide ad-equate assurance for defect detectability;however,it is recog-nized that,for special applications,specific techniques usingmore
8、 or less stringent requirements may be required than thosespecified.In these cases,the use of alternate radiographictechniques shall be as agreed upon between purchaser andsupplier(also see Section 5).1.5 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.1.6This standard does not p
9、urport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:3E94
