You can generate Notice of Inspection (NOI) and Report of Inspection (ROI) reports for various NDTs in Non-Destructive Testing Before Stress Release (BSR) module and Non-Destructive Testing After Stress Release (ASR) module.

The following are the various types of NDTs for NDT (BSR) and NDT (ASR):

  • Ultrasonic Testing (UTE)

  • Hardness Testing (HDT)

  • Radiography Testing (RTE)

  • Positive Material Identification Testing (PMI)

  • Magnetic Particle Inspection Testing (MPI)

  • Ferrite Count Testing (FCO)

  • Dye Penetrant Inspection Testing (DPI)

  • Phase Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAU)

  • Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT)

  • Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD)

Steps to create NOIs and ROIs are similar for Non-Destructive Testing (ASR) module.

        For example, if a weld W01 is rejected during NDT and Repair segment is selected as the reason for repair, a new weld segment is created as W01_R1 (where 1 is the first repair segment or the weld is rejected for the first time). If the newly created weld segment W01_R1 is also rejected, then another repair segment is created as W01_R2 (Which means the weld is rejected for the send time). If the weld is rejected thrice, the weld is disabled, and a new weld segment is created with a new weld label W01_C1.

      • Re-weld: If you select the reason for repair as re-weld, then the original weld is disabled, and a new weld is created with a suffix Cx (where x is the numbers of times the weld is rejected and reweld).

        For example, if a weld W01 is rejected during NDT and Reweld is selected as the reason for repair, a new weld is created with a suffix C1 and labeled as W01_C1 (where C1 indicates the first reweld).

    • Reason
