GENERAL KNOWLEDGE & OVERVIEW OF CODES & STANDARDS
•General knowledge of specifications and procedures•Objectives of standardizations
GENERAL KNOWLEDGE & OVERVIEW OF CODES & STANDARDS
QualityQuality of an industrial product is defined as fitness of the product to do the job required of it by its user. Quality ControlQuality control can be defined as the controls applied at each manufacturing stage to consistently produce a quality product.
GENERAL KNOWLEDGE & OVERVIEW OF CODES & STANDARDS
Codes
Codes are type of standards that use the verbs shall or will to indicate the mandatory use of certain materials or actions or both. The use of codes is mandated with the force of law by governmental jurisdiction.Specifications
Specifications are also a type of standards but they differ from code in that their use is not mandatory except when they are referred by a code or contractual documents.
GENERAL KNOWLEDGE & OVERVIEW OF CODES & STANDARDS
StandardA technical Specification or other document available to the
public is called a standard if it is:Drawn up with the cooperation and consensus or general approval of all interested.Based on the consolidated results of science, technology and experience.Aimed at the promotion of optimum community benefits.Approved by a body recognized on the national, regional or international level.
GENERAL KNOWLEDGE & OVERVIEW OF CODES & STANDARDS
Objectives of standardizations
• Clear Communication• Economy of Effort• Minimum Performance• Historical Record• Collective Wisdom• Improvement in Quality
International Organizations Producing Standards On Visual Testing
• Aerospace Industries Association (AIA)• American Bureau of Shipping (ABS)• American National Standards Institute (ANSI)• American Society for Non-destructive Testing (ASNT)• American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)• American Society for Mechanical Engineers (ASME)• American Welding Society (AWS)• Department of Defense (DOD)• Ship Structure Committee (SSC)• Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE)• American Petroleum Institute (API)
International Organizations Producing Standards On Visual Testing
• French Association of Standardization (AFNOR)• British Standards Institute (BSI)• The European Committee for Standardization (CEN)• German Institute for Standardization (DIN)• International Organization for Standardization (ISO)• Japanese Industrial Standards Committee (JISC)
ASME (B & PV) Code
NDT / VT related:
• Section III, rules for the Construction of Nuclear facility components
• Section VIII, Rules for construction pressure vessel• Section V, Non-destructive Examination (Article-9)• Section XI, Rules for In-service Inspection of Nuclear
Power Plant components
ASME (B & PV) Code
Section XI, Rules for In-service Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant components (IWA-2200)
• VT-1 For general service inspection, conducted to detect discontinuities and imperfections on the wear, corrosion and erosion.
• VT-2 detect evidence of leakage from pressure retaining components.
• VT-3 is conducted to detect discontinuities and imperfections such as loss of integrity at bolted or welded connections, loose or missing parts, debris, corrosion, wear or erosion.
ASME (B & PV) Code
Section XI, Rules for In-service Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant components (IWA-2300)
Lists the requirements for:
• near vision test charts• remote visual testing • illumination level requirements.
As in Section V, Article-9
American Petroleum Institute (API) Standard for Welding Pipelines and Related Facilities
• API 1104 (Standard for Welding Pipelines and Related Facilities) explicitly addresses radiographic
and visual testing.• Section 6 (A/R)
American Welding Society (AWS) Structural Welding Code
Buildings with structural steels have been designed and built according to the requirements of AWS D 1.1 (Structural Welding Code - Steel).
• AWS D1.1 uses the term “inspection” • Where the ASME document would use “examination” • ASNT document would use “testing”.
American Society for Non-destructive Testing(ASNT)
• ASNT Recommended Practice No. SNT-TC-1A • Set of guidelines or recommendations for employers to establish and conduct a non-destructive testing personnel qualification and certification programme.

• ISO 9712 (2005) : Non-destructive testing- Qualification and Certification of Personnel
INTERPRETATION OF PROCEDURES AND COMPILATION OF TEST INSTRUCTIONS
• An individual certified to Level 3
• procedure writing • An individual certified to Level 2
•perform and direct non-destructive testing in accordance with established or recognized procedures.• Includes interpreting and evaluating results
• Person qualified to Level 1• Work according to the written Instructions by Level 2 or Level-3
PERFORMANCE OF TEST IN ACCORDANCE WITH WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS
RECORDS OF OPERATING CONDITIONS ON TEST FORMS• The instruction sheet is derived from the procedure• Result recorded on test form• Report Form• Name of lab• code• Identification • stage, extent• Location of defect• date & place• Report No, inspector, client
