Joint Efficiency

Joint efficiencies as used in Section VIII (Rules for Construction of Pressure Vessel), Division I, Subsection B, Part UW-12 apply to joints completed by an arc or gas welding process. Except as required by Part UW-11 (Radiographic and Ultrasonic Examination), a joint efficiency depends only on the type of joint and on the degree of examination of any other joint. Requirements for degree of radiographic examination are described in Part UW-51 (Radiographic and Radioscopic Examination of welded joints), and Part UW-52 (Spot examination of Welded Joints).
