• The level II course considers the application of longitudinal, shear, surface and plate wave Ultrasonic Testing, comparing straight beam (Longitudinal Wave) and angle beam (Shear Wave) techniques. The application of shear wave testing for weld inspection is the major topic for this class, as well as consideration of heat-affected zone scans, surfaces and hydrogen embrittled cracking
• Also discussed are the advantages and limitations of Ultrasonic Testing as compared to Radiographic Testing of welds. The main focus is on the way shear wave examination parameters relate to each other and includes near field and beam spread, transducer design, incident, refraction and reflection angle variables amongst others. Level II Ultrasonic Testing certification procedures are also covered. And additional day is available to cover Nozzle Testing for those who require it.
