Radiographic testing can be used to evaluate welded joints, areas of material loss, and internal defects using a nuclear source to penetrate materials. Defects are evaluated on film in a dark room and provide a visual representation of the found defects. Caution must be taken to ensure proper time, distance, and shielding are accounted for by surrounding workers and operating technicians.
- CGSB RT Level 1, 2, and 3.
Radiographic Testing Results:
- Effective, repeatable, quality control tool.
- Hard copy documentation of defects.
- Compliance with CWB 178.1
