    Titel: An Interpretation of Astm E 155 For Different Discontinuities (Defects Types) and Levels

    Uploaded by

    Jason Wu
    This document outlines 8 levels of discontinuities (defects) in aluminum alloys for radiographic testing at thicknesses of 1/4 inch and 3/4 inch according to ASTM E 155 standards. The defects include gas holes, shrinkage cavities, foreign material of varying densities, and gas porosity that is round or elongated in shape. Each level provides the size range in mm2 and diameter for the defect. Multiple smaller defects are noted to be difficult to quantify for levels 5-8.
