Is it for me?

This course is suitable for all personnel including testers, inspectors, engineers and surveyors who require a thorough and comprehensive introduction to ultrasonic testing of welded joints.

This course is also suitable for personnel working in the aerospace industry and can be found under the Aerospace section.

If time is an issue, please consider our blended learning option - study theory and concepts when and where you choose, then join the classroom sessions for hands-on practical.

What will I learn?

Classroom content

Basic principles of sound; generation and detection of sound; behaviour of sound in a material; the flaw detector; use of angled beam probes for weld scanning; welding processes and weld defects; practical exercises on test specimens containing simulated flaws; examination of parent plate, butt welds; instruction writing.

 

What will I leave with?

By the end of the course, you should be able to:

  • Explain the theoretical background of the techniques
  • Calibrate ultrasonic equipment
  • Measure the thickness of steel plates and determine levels of attenuation
  • Locate and evaluate laminations
  • Select the correct type of probe to examine welded butt joints in steel plate and aerospace components/structures
