provided they comply with the requirements o f
Article 2. Wire IQIs shall be placed in accordance with
the requirements of Article 2.

The figures in this Appendix demonstrate typical IQI

(hole type) placement for welds. These sketches are tutorial to demonstrate suggested locations of IQIs and are not

Legend:
P = IQI placement
TN = nominal wall thickness
P1 = alternate IQI placement
TS = total thickness including backing strip and/or reinforcement
SH = shim
when not removed
T = weld thickness upon which the IQI is based

GENERAL NOTES:
(a) P and P1 are suggested placements of IQIs and are not intended to cover all geometric configurations or applications of production
radiography.
(b) IQI is based on the single wall thickness plus reinforcement.
