These defects are the most serious defects in welds of steel constructions from the safety point of view. For identification, an ultrasonic phased array technique and a conventional X-ray using digital imaging were used. The theoretical part of the article describes the current state of the given issue and provides basic theoretical knowledge about ultrasonic and X-ray welding tests. In the experimental part, the procedure and results of testing butt weld joint are described by both non-destructive methods. The butt weld joint was made from steel S420MC. Each indication obtained by the ultrasonic and x-ray technique is supplemented by the macrostructure of the weld taken from the indication position. The results of the experimental work mentioned in the article point to the possibility and reliability of the identification of melting defects by selected nondestructive methods in terms of their character and orientation.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Identification of Lack of Fusion and Incomplete Penetration in Butt Weld Joint by Ultrasonic Phased Array Method and X-Ray Method}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/113031/PDF/AMM-2019-3-50-Konar.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2019.129503}, keywords={internal defects, butt weld joint, Nondestructive testing, lack of fusion, incomplete penetration}, }
