ASME Code Section V – NDE Procedures and Personnel

Starting with a brief general introduction into the ASME Code the participants will learn the basics about the NDE Methods and the required content of NDE procedures according to ASME Code Section V. A complete NDE procedure will be developed. For various NDE methods (RT, UT, MT, PT, VT, LT) the special contents and the required reports will be addressed. An Authorized Inspector Supervisor experienced in this field will explain the particular responsibilities, the acceptance criteria and the personnel qualification requirements.

Some of the key points are:

discussing the specific NDE technique(s) (e.g. RT, UT, MT, PT, VT, LT) used
description of the examination process
description of the interpretation and evaluation of indications depending on the ASME Construction Code applied (ASME Section VIII-Div. 1 & 2, Section I, Section IV, etc.)
final documentation required for the performed nondestructive examination NDE
determining the specific needs of the employer regarding the NDE personnel qualification levels depending on the NDE methods (e.g. RT, UT, MT, PT, VT, LT) applied at the manufacturing facilities
description of the NDE Levels of qualification
Required education, experience and training
description of the written and practical examinations to be passed by the NDE personnel
certification requirements
recertification process and technical performance evaluation
administration and retention of the required documentation to maintain the NDE personnel qualification

Who should attend:

All users and future users of the ASME Code with basic or advanced knowledge in NDE. The course is recommended for Engineers, Technicians and Management of Sales, Purchasing, Projects, Design, Engineering, Fabrication, Assembly, Repair, Quality Control and Quality Assurance of Boilers, Pressure Vessels, Piping Systems, Fittings and Materials.

ASME Code Section IX – Qualification of Welding Procedures and Welders

In the international plant engineering business ASME Code Section IX is the most often used standard for the qualification of welding procedures, welders and welding operators as well as brazing procedures and brazers.

This workshops exclusively covers the topic of welding and familiarizes the participants with qualification of welding procedures and welders as required by the ASME Code Section IX. By means of practical exercises the basic requirements of ASME Code Section IX will be demonstrated. During the workshop the participants gain the necessary knowledge to independently prepare and/or review Procedure Qualification Records (PQR), Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS) and Welder/Welding Operator/Performance Qualifications (WPQ/WOPQ)).

The participants are invited to take an active part in this workshop.

Key Points of the Workshop:

structure and application of ASME Code Section IX
basic requirements regarding the qualification of welding procedures and welders
documentation: Procedure Qualification Record (PQR), Welding Procedure Specification (WPS), Welder Performance Qualifications (WPQ) and Welding Operator Performance Qualification (WOPQ)
scope and variables of different welding procedures
“essential variables” and “nonessential variables”
impact test requirements and “supplemental essential variables”
qualification of welders and welding operators
manual and semiautomatic welding
machine and automatic welding
scope and variables for welders
exercises:
reviewing of Procedure Qualification Record (PQR)
reviewing of Welding Procedure Specification (WPS)
reviewing of Welder Performance Qualifications (WPQ) and Welding Operator Performance Qualification (WOPQ)
preparing of Procedure Qualification Record (PQR)
preparing of Welding Procedure Specification (WPS)
