    Hi Bulldog
    it would be extremely foolish to do so
    often planar discontinuities (such as lack of fusion) are not detected by RT, but are by UT
    the likes of AS3992 allows you to cut around defects detected in PQR test plates
    as it sees the purpose of the test plate as providing evidence of suitable mechanical properties
    I would have to check D1.1 for a similar clause, our resident guru BB might provide some insight
