3. NDT
Nondestructive testing techniques such as Ultrasonic
Thickness, Measurement Phassed Array Ultrasonic Test
(PAUT), magnetic particle (MT), Long Range Ultrasonic Test
(LRUT) are very instrumental in detecting surface and
internal anomalies in a component. Pitting corrosion as
General corrosion, Cracks, hot tears, cold shuts, shrinkage
porosity, voids, lack of fusion, delamination, inclusions and
numerous other defects can be detected using these
techniques without impairing the parts usefulness. Type of
material and the geometry will dictate the best method to
use.
LRUT speciall inspection for collecting data how pipe
condition, quality of pipe and general corrosion to help
calculating remaining life and data of the pipe.
Infrared can be used in this method. If material on heat
progress, crack may made from heat unspecified.
5.MECHANICAL PROPERTIES
Material properties such as, strength, hardness,
Hardness Test
The other most common test, especially if the
component is too small and not suitable for tensile
testing, is the hardness test. These results may also
be used to estimate approximate tensile strengths.
Typical methods include: Brinell, Rockwell (e.g. HRC,
HRB, HRF), superficial Rockwell (e.g. HR30T,
HR15N). These techniques employ various test load
and indenter combinations. For hard materials the
most common scale is the Rockwell C scale using a
diamond tip and a 150 kg load. Softer materials may
be tested using the Rockwell B scale (using a 1/16
diameter ball and 100 kg load). Brinell may be used
for both hard and soft materials with either a
3,000kg or a 500kg load with a 10 mm carbide ball.
The large indenter utilized in Brinell testing allows
sort of an average hardness to be determined. For
extremely thin sections or case hardened parts
Microhardness (e.g. Knoop, Vickers using diamond
tips and typically loads around 500 grams) are
utilized.

6.Microscopic Examination
Metallographic
7.Fractography
High magnification examination of the fracture surfaces
Brittle fractures
Can occur in two distinct modes, transgranular
cleavage and intergranular separation. Cleavage
fracture progresses along crystallographic planes of a
material and leaves ledges or steps behind. Some
also include river patterns. Intergranular fracture,
also known as "rock candy" in materials with coarse
grain size (i.e. castings) is another form of low energy
failure that usually indicates a service environment
or processing problem. Typical causes are quench
cracking,
temper
embrittlement,
hydrogen
embrittlement,
liquid
metal
embrittlement,
precipitation or transformation of detrimental phases
due to high temperature exposures or stress
corrosion cracking.
8.STRESS-STRAIN ANALYSIS
Structural analysis using the Finite Element
Method modeling with reference to the imposition
of the required / actual. Results of dimensional
inspection, review of design drawings and the
result of gathering information about the material,
the burden of the load (mass / conductor
dimensions and wind speed), the condition of the
foundation and the final completeness of the
bracing that has been done before material is
used as input data for simulation by finite element
method. Material objects are modeled with
software Finite Element Method (FEM) or can be
modeled with other simulation software. From the
results of these simulations will obtain information
about the location of the member / element under
tension / biggest load where it will be used to
determine the cause of failure.
