This method consists of radiographic film being placed under
a sample. The sample is then exposed to radiation, the radiation
passes through the sample, and exposes the film. Discontinuities
in the sample affect the exposure of the film. Most materials
can be tested by radiographic inspection, e.g. welds, castings,
composites etc. Radiographic testing provides a permanent record
and provides a high sensitivity of testing.
There are two types of course available under
radiography, Radiographic Testing and Radiographic Interpretation.
The radiographic testing course
is for NDT personnel wishing to carry out radiographic testing,
this course incorporates interpretation of the radiograph in
addition to the techniques used to create the radiograph.
To carry out radiographic testing, a basic
radiation safety certificate must be obtained. We can provide
training for PCN/EN473/ISO 9712 levels 1, 2, and 3, ASNT Level
3. Alternatively we can provide training suitable for candidates
working to a written practice based on SNT-TC-1A. Radiographic
Testing is separated into two specific product sectors for
certification at levels 1 and 2; Welds, and Castings.

As radiation is hazardous to health,
a radiation safety course must be completed before radiographic
testing begins. The two radiation safety courses we offer are Basic
Radiation Safety (BRS) and Radiation Protection to Supervisor Standard
(RPS). To gain RPS, BRS must have been held for at least 9 months. |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
BRS8 - 1 Day Basic Radiation Safety
BRS16 - 2 Days Basic Radiation Safety
RPS24 - 3 Days Radiation Protection to Supervisor Standard |

The radiographic interpretation course only
covers the interpretation of the radiograph, therefore is suitable
for personnel wishing to only interpret radiographs as opposed
to creating radiographs via radiographic testing.
Radiographic Interpretation is only available at level 2. Find below the pricing
for radiographic interpretation courses:
