Cracks
Slag
Sharp edges
Tank testing
Pneumatic test: This test is carried out to check the boundary welds, block erection etc.
by means of air pressure difference. Defects are found out when soap solution is applied
around the boundaries of the compartment after the compartment is pressurized.

Hydro test: This test is similar to the pneumatic test. Here water is stored inside the
structures. Defects are found here from the compartment from that particular defects
and the same are repaired.
