Dear Experts,

Refer to subject line and attachment , An RF pad is coming closely  with the circumferential weld of a lateral Tee.

Please advice how to resolve it. Code is ASME B 31.1.

Dear Sir, 

Take RT/UT of that area (consider the weld area of fillet weld for RF pad also)

After getting it cleared in RT/UT; flush grind the area and do the fitup of the RF pad.

Some specification insists to do DPT after flush grinding (Even after acceptance of RT/UT); before fitup of RF pad.
