The purpose of the research are determine acceptance criteria the specimen based on ASME standard. The research used mild steel materials with hardness 220 HVN with sized 30 cm x 20 cm x 1.2 cm then  SMAW welding process position of 3G buttjoint with rooting electrode LB 52U diameter 2.6 mm used current 70 Amper and voltage 380 volt, for Filler used LB 5218 electrode 3.2 mm with current of 80 Amper and voltage of 380 volts. The welding process influenced by many factor which cause failure. The method for inspect result of weld used Non Destructive Test Penetrant Testing (NDT PT) and used ASME standard for acceptance criteria. The test results showed the discontinuity of porosity on the surface of the welded product in specimen 1 is the largest rounded 5 mm at 233 mm distance so that based on the acceptance criteria of AWS standard, the welding result is accepted and the specimen 2 there is discontinuity at 233 mm with the size of 8 mm so that Otherwise rejected. This rejected result can be improved by gouging the discontinuity and then welded.

The compressive strength test is one of the technical properties or compressive strength tests that are commonly used in rock mechanics to determine the collapse point or the elasticity of rock against maximum pressure. The rock collapse point is a measure of the strength of the rock itself when the rock is no longer able to maintain its elastic properties. The purpose of this test is to find out how long the rock maintains its strength or elasticity properties when pressure is applied, and to find out the difference between the strength of compact rock and rock that has fractures when pressure is applied. Rocks that have fractures will break more easily or quickly when pressure is applied compared to compact rocks. This analysis is carried out by comparing the rock strength of each sample, both those that have fractures and compact rocks. To find out these differences, laboratory testing was carried out. The test results show the value (compressive strength test 57.76 MPa), (elastic modulus 5250.000MPa), (Poisson ratio 0.05) and the average value of rock mechanical properties test (axial 0.91), (lateral-0.279), and (volumetric 0.252) . Based on the test results above, it shows that rocks that have fractures will break more easily when pressure is applied, compared to compact rocks that have a long time in the uniaxial compressive strength test.

Abstract Aggregates are necessary materials for the construction industry. Owing to their favourable properties, andesites are frequently used rock materials; hence, the investigation of their mechanical and aggregate properties has great significance. This paper introduces the analyses of 13 Hungarian andesite lithotypes. The samples were collected from six andesite quarries in Hungary. Cylindrical specimens and aggregate samples with 10.0/14.0-mm-sized grains were made from rock blocks. The specimens were tested in dry, water-saturated and freeze–thaw subjected conditions. Bulk density, uniaxial compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, indirect tensile strength and water absorption were measured. The abrasion resistance was tested by micro-Deval tests. The flakiness indexes of the samples were also measured. The data set of the laboratory test results provided input for further, one- and two-variable statistical analyses. According to the test results, there is no significant difference between the strength parameters measured in water-saturated and in freeze–thaw subjected conditions. The correlation and regression analyses revealed relationships between some rock mechanical parameters, as well as between micro-Deval coefficient and uniaxial compressive strength.
