You can not UT a fillet weld. RT could serve you but, you would need an experienced film reader who could recognize the difference between a crack and the root it self. You could use the DC mode with MT unit that is effective to about 1/4 inch in depth. Forget PT that is only applicable for surface defects. My question would be is there a reason why you think there might be cracking. Did you have failure of the welds? If you established you weld procedure in accordance with AWS D1.1 there in not a need to investigate the root of a fillet weld unless, there are indication of cracking in the weld. If that is the case you have to establish why is it cracking. To investigate roots of fillets on fear is not pratical nor reasonable or required unless established by supplication specification.
