A study has been made of the butt welds which join together the sections of longitudinal stiffeners in longitudinal framed ships. From a review of Coast Guard casualty reports and a survey of major shipbuilders, it was determined that there is very little evidence of structural failure in service and, therefore, no need at this time to expand nondestructive inspection to include this type of weld joint.
