Partial Penetration Weldments could be tested using Ultrasound Testing method. It should not be used to evaluate the intergrity of the weld but could be used to detect the root penetration and the depth.

What is difference between full strength butt weld and full penetration butt weld?

a weld that does exactly what it sounds like, the molten metal that is created when welding is created all the way through the materials being welded. for example, if it is a 1/16th inch steel plate, a full penetration weld would create a molten bead from the front to the back of the plate. A full pin weld is when u have a bevel on one side that u weld first flip it over arc air gouge the other side and weld that side up

Is a flare groove weld considered a partial penetration weld?

Without knowing exactly which Code or industry this applies to, I'll give it a shot using AWS D1.1 standards. The standard flare-groove detail is P10 indicating that it is a PJP (partial joint penetration) weld. If a weld size is not indicated, it is assumed it is a full thickness weld and I believe this is where the confusion comes in. It's a partial penetration with full thickness and that's where the argument starts. This weld could be used as a full penetration weld (and held to that testing criteria) but the detailer must be specific about the intentions, particularly if it is used in a critical joint.
