Conventional ultrasound testing uses pulse echo principles where a single or double probe scans materials and interprets echoes to detect defects based on amplitude and sharpness. However, this method is operator dependent, effectiveness depends on defect orientation, and it provides limited defect characterization without a test record. The document also provides illustrations of probe placement for inspecting various weld configurations.
