HDPE pipe inspection

[QC1971]

Can anyone help with the inspection criteria for welds in HDPE piping manufactured to ASME B31.1? I did have a chart for this but it has been several years since I have been involved with HDPE and I can not find it. Any help will be appreciated.

QC1971 Here is a link for a TWI paper which whilst not specifically intended for B31.3. covers NDT of HDPE quite well.
