Thank you very much for this resource. It is very helpful.I notice what TWI describes as "lack of root fusion" and what ASME B31.3 describes as "incomplete penetration" are in fact one and the same.In normal service, a girth butt weld designed under ASME B31.3, a weld is allowed 38 mm of "incomplete penetration" for every 150 mm of weld. BUT zero "lack of fusion". Many RT interpreters under ASME B31.3 confuse the 2 indications, leading to unnecessary rework and an artificially high repair rate. Can any of our experts speak to this?Warm regards,Darcy Morin

Slag looks wider than undercut and undercut would follow the weld, not be straight – my opinion
