of ultrasonic testing. The training program should contain the following classroom hours to adequate:
'y present the information suggested in the ASNT publication, SNT-TC-1A, Recommended Practice,
«June 1980 edition.
Level 1 training will include lectures on all 14 lessons with an average of approximately 2.9
hours per lesson. Emphasis by the instructor should be given to lessons 1-8 which cover the
basic principles and applications of the ultrasonic method.
{the training program is aimed at meeting the guidelines for Level, the instructor can follow the lec:
ture guide closely with very itl elaboration or explanation. advanced training is tobe given, the in
structor should require additional outside reading with class discussions and should present personal
Information to elaborate on the lecture guide outline. Each program can be easily expanded and is
limited only by the instructor's experience and expertise.
‘The materials in this course are designed for use ina typical classroom traning situation with an ideal
class size of 5.25 students. The instructor will lecture on all essons withthe aid of the lecture guide
transparencies provided.

‘SUGGESTED USE OF EXAM AND KEYS
1. Its suggested that the exam packet be removed before the student is issued his/her package of
training materials.
2. Exams can be given at the end of the lecture or at the beginning of the next lecture period. The
umber of exams given at one time will depend on the number of lessons covered, Exams can be
corrected in class and should be discussed briefly with the students, Don't permit lengthy argu:
‘ments about interpretation of questions, etc.
‘3. The exam questions in this package are not intended for use in the certification of NDT personnel
They are simply teaching tools to aid the instructor in presenting the material. H examinations for
ccettiication are needed, itis suggested that the instructor obtain a copy of SNT-TC-14 and follow
this recommended practice (Paragraph 8, SNT-TC-1A)
4, If the instructor so chooses, the exam results could be used to arrive at @ percentile score that
could be recorded on the students’ certificate of completion along with the number of course
hours. Blank certificates are available trom ASNT.vi.

DEMONSTRATIONS ANDIOA LAB EXERCISES
1, tis highly recommendes that the insiructor make every effort to provide the student with some
>ractical experience sn ultrasonic testing. The depth of practical exercises will depend on the
lume, equipment, and facilities that are available,
2. AS 8 minimum, the instructor should bring an ultrasonic instrument and search unit into the
‘classroom tor demonstration purposes.
3. Theine*-uctor should use whatever resources are available to collect sample parts that will repre-
sent svvety of applications.
4, If time, equipment, and facilities are available, each student should be given as much hands-on
experience as possible. Where practical. a variety of lab stations should be set up. each with a aif.
ferent ultrasonic application, The student should then be rotated through each station with as
any resource people as possible available to help answer specific questions. Ultrasonic equip.

BASIC APPLICATIONS OF ULTRASONICS
ULTRASONICS IS A VERSATILE INSPECTION TECHNIQUE, IT IS USED TO TEST A
VARIETY OF BOTH METALLIC AND NONMETALLIC PRODUCTS SUCH AS WELDS,
FORGINGS, CASTINGS, SHEET, TUBING, PLASTICS AND CERAMICS.
ULTRASONICS HAS AN ADVANTAGE OF DETECTING SUBSURFACE DISCONTI-
NUITIES WITH ACCESS TO ONLY ONE SIDE OF THE SPECIMEN.
THE OBJECTIVE OF ULTRASONIC TESTING IS TO ENSURE PRODUCT RELIABIL-
ITY BY MEANS OF:
4. OBTAINING INFORMATION RELATED TO DISCONTINUITIES.
2. DISCLOSING THE NATURE OF THE DISCONTINUITY WITHOUT IMPAIRING
THE USEFULNESS OF THE PART.
3. SEPARATING ACCEPTABLE AND UNACCEPTABLE MATERIALS IN AC-
CORDANCE WITH PREDETERMINED STANDARDS.
TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE TECHNICIAN AND SUPERVISOR BE QUALIFIED IN
THE ULTRASONIC METHOD BEFORE THE TECHNIQUE IS USED AND TEST RE-
SULTS EVALUATED.
THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR NONDESTRUCTIVE TESTING RECOMMENDS THE
USE OF THEIR DOCUMENT “RECOMMENDED PRACTICE NO. SNT-TC-1A.”
THIS DOCUMENT PROVIDES THE EMPLOYER WITH THE NECESSARY GUIDE-
LINES TO PROPERLY QUALIFY AND CERTIFY THE NDT TECHNICIAN IN ALL
METHODS.
TO COMPLY WITH THIS DOCUMENT THE EMPLOYER MUST ESTABLISH A “WRIT-
TEN PRACTICE” WHICH DESCRIBES IN DETAIL HOW THE TECHNICIAN WILL BE
TRAINED, EXAMINED AND CERTIFIED.
THE STUDENT IS ADVISED TO STUDY THE CURRENT EDITION OF SNT-TC-1A TO
DETERMINE THE RECOMMENDED INITIAL NUMBER OF HOURS OF CLASSROOM
INSTRUCTION AND MONTHS OF EXPERIENCE NECESSARY TO BE CERTIFIED AS
AN ULTRASONIC TESTING TECHNICIAN.UT Lecture Guide

ASNT PROVIDES A SERVICE TO THE INDUSTRY BY PROVIDING LEVEL III EXAMI-

ULTRASONIC PRINCIPLES
IN ULTRASONIC TESTING WE USE SOMETHING CALLED “ULTRASONIC VIBRA-
TIONS.” WE MUST KNOW TWO FACTS ABOUT A VIBRATION:
1. A VIBRATION IS A BACK AND FORTH MOVEMENT.
2. A VIBRATION IS ENERGY IN MOTION.
A DEPRESSION OF A SURFACE FROM ITS NORMAL POSITION IS CALLED A
DISPLACEMENT.
RUBBER BALL
VIBRATIONS PASS THROUGH A SOLID MATERIAL AS A SUCCESSION OF PARTI-
CLE DISPLACEMENTS. THIS CAN BE VISUALIZED AS SHOWN BELOW:
ALISR
THE STRUCTURE OF A MATERIAL IS ACTUALLY MANY SMALL PARTICLES OR
GROUPS OF ATOMS.
THESE PARTICLES HAVE NORMAL OR REST POSITIONS, AND CAN BE DIS-
PLACED FROM THESE POSITIONS BY SOME FORCE. WHEN THE FORCE IS
REMOVED, THE PARTICLES WILL TEND TO RETURN TO THEIR ORIGINAL POSI-
TIONS.UT Lecture Guide
Lesson 2
ENERGY IS TRANSMITTED THROUGH A SOLID MATERIAL BY A SERIES OF
‘SMALL MATERIAL DISPLACEMENTS WITHIN THE MATERIAL.
THE TRANSMISSION OF ULTRASONIC VIBRATIONS THROUGH A MATERIAL IS
RELATED TO THE ELASTIC PROPERTIES OF THE MATERIAL.
IF YOU TAP A METAL SURFACE, THE SURFACE MOVES INWARD, CAUSING A
DISPLACEMENT.
