Angle
Plot the amplitude of both the top and bottom notch indications as a function of actual skip
distance and explain how a DACC could be implemented.
Search for Indications
Using the calibrated system, locate and characterize indications found in the welded plate. Be
sure to chose three reference surfaces on the welded plate to uniquely locate and size any
indications.
Write an Engineering Report
The report should include the following sections:
Title
title, name of class, you name, date, names of class members in your group
Abstract
a summary of the purpose, procedure, results and conclusions
Introduction
purpose of lab, description of the test method from an engineering viewpoint (physics of the
test method, not the test procedure), test method advantages and limitations
Equipment, Materials, Specimens
describe equipment, materials and specimens
Procedures
general procedure
detailed procedure
Results and Discussion
results of UT, text and pictures
results of test method, text and pictures
discussion of measurements, results, indications (or the lack of), types of discontinuities
producing the indications
document UT instrument settings
Conclusions
draw conclusions that can be substantiated by the data collected
