Is it mandatory to demonstrate NDT procedure qualification before applying in the actual job? If so, please give the code/standard reference.

"YES" It is mandatory to demonstrate the Procedure qualification before applying on the actual job, else how will we ensure that what is performed gives you correct results by the method it is being done.
Regarding the code/standards, reference depends upon the requirement of the specific project/client acceptance.

Good Morning ,

Basically  NDT procedures are drafted in line with specific codes for example ASME Sec V which is universally adopted. If client insist or raise any doubt than only we have to demonstrate

On my opinion and when ASME BPVC is applicable a new demostration is necessary when an essential parameter is affected

If you refer ASME V  clause  T522.1,T721.2 & T621.2 for UT,MT & PT respectively then you will find that when procedure qualification is specified by the referncing code section(i.e construction code...ASME VIII, 31.3 etc) , change of requirment in relevant table ( ASME V )identifed as an essential variable shall require requlification of written procedure by demonstration.

Where as per ASME V clause T 221.2 for RT - Only demonstration of density & image quality requirements as per written procedure  on production or technique radiograph shall be considered satisfactory evidence of compliance of that procedure.

Suppose if you are qualifying welder by radiography then even written procedure is also not required as per QW 190 Only demonstration of density & image quality requirements on production or technique radiograph shall be considered satisfactory evidence of compliance with article 2 of section V.

I think its more clear now. If you come across with some clients specification then you may have to demonstrate the NDT procedures beside abovsaid code requiremnts.

To make it simple . ASME had introduced mandatory Procedures
Qualifications for NDE in 2007 . These will have Essential variables
akin to WPS in Welding

Although Industry still did not get into this groove



you may find the same in clauses referred by Pradip
