Radiographic Testing – Level II

SNT-TC-1A, ANSI/ASNT CP-189, and NAS-410

Course Description:

The Radiographic Testing – Level II course covers both X and Gamma Radiography with an approximately equal balance of theory and practical sessions and is designed for manufacturers, service organizations and overhaul agencies who require their technicians, inspectors or engineers to be trained in the application of radiographic techniques. As well as working through their own supervised practical exercises, students will receive full instruction on darkroom procedures and radiographic interpretation. The Level II course builds upon the Level I syllabus and emphasizes a greater depth of study, development of senitometric curves, exposure chart production and the development of procedures and techniques. The course satisfies the training hours needed for Level II certification in accordance with SNT-TC-1A, ANSI/ASNT CP-189, and NAS-410.
