WELD 134 - Radiography-Level II


Credit Hours: 2
Billable Contact Hours: 3
Prerequisites: WELD 133 
Session Cycle: WI

This is the continuation of the Level I course. However, the same aspects are studied at higher level of difficulty and responsibility. Students will study volumetric discontinuities using radiographic tests; understand penetrating radiation, its properties and limitations; and safety precautions. Additional focus will be on the how and why of defect formation. The principle of image formation, sensitivity and quality of radiographic process, codes and standards will be studied. Development of film, reading the films for discontinuities, film interpretations, procedures and codes for acceptance and rejection criteria for flaws will be learned in practical sessions. The emphasis of this course will be on the interpretation and analysis of defects.
