A faulted condition determination method is designed to detect a chromium content and a nickel content in a predetermined boundary region proximate to a boundary between a high-strength ferrite steel and a weld material in a welded joint in which the high-strength ferrite steel and another steel are welded together using the weld material containing nickel and to thereby determine the faulted condition of the predetermined boundary region based on the chromium content and the nickel content. Accordingly, it is possible to appropriately determine the faulted condition of welding of a replacement part in which a high-strength ferrite steel and another steel are welded together using a nickel-based weld material.
