Root edge condition shows the penetration <strong>of</strong> weld metal into the backing<br />

ring or into the clearance between backing ring or strip and the base metal. It<br />

appears in radiographs as a sharply defined film density transition.<br />

Root undercut appears as an intermittent or continuous groove in the<br />

internal surface <strong>of</strong> the base metal, backing ring or strip along the edge <strong>of</strong> the<br />

weld root.<br />
