1、Designation:E173415Standard Practice forRadioscopic Examination of Castings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1734;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses i
2、ndicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers a uniform procedure for radio-scopic examination of castings.Radioscopic examination ofweldments can be found in E1416.1.2 This practice appl
3、ies only to radioscopic examination inwhich an image is finally presented on a display screen(monitor)for evaluation.Test part acceptance may be based ona static or dynamic image.The examination results may berecorded for later review.This practice does not apply to fullyautomated systems in which e
4、valuation is performed automati-cally by a computer.1.3 Due to the many complex geometries and part configu-rations inherent with castings,it is necessary to recognize thepotential limitations associated with obtaining complete radio-scopic coverage.Consideration shall be given to areas wheregeometr
5、y or part configuration does not allow for completeradioscopic coverage.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard.The SI units given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with
6、 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:2E94 Guide for Radiographic ExaminationE543 Specification for Agencies
