The macrography of a longitudinal section of the shell plate (sample removed from the boiler), at the position of the fillet weld (sealing weld) with a tube, where surface welding repairs created conditions for cracking the base material in a transgranular morphology. Several cracks were identify starting from the steam drum internal surface.
