Learn to identify, evaluate, and report weld defects using radiographic films as per ASME, AWS, and other industry stand
What you'll learn
Understand radiographic film quality and interpret common weld defects on industrial radiographs with accuracy.
Learn to identify and classify discontinuities such as porosity, cracks, slag, and undercut from X-ray or gamma-ray films.
Apply acceptance criteria from ASME, AWS, and other standards during film interpretation and reporting.
Improve decision-making through hands-on examples, report writing practice, and real-world radiograph evaluation techniques.
Requirements
No prior certification is required — this course is suitable for beginners and working professionals.
Basic understanding of Radiographic Testing (RT) is helpful but not mandatory.
Access to sample radiographs (digital or physical) is recommended for better practice.
A notepad and pen for taking notes and interpreting sample images effectively.
Description
This course offers complete and practical training in Radiographic Film Interpretation (RTFI) — an essential part of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). It is designed to help learners identify, evaluate, and report weld defects based on radiographic film results as per industry standards.You'll learn how to interpret various types of discontinuities such as porosity, slag inclusion, lack of fusion, lack of penetration, cracks, and undercut. Through practical film samples and case-based discussions, you’ll gain the ability to distinguish between acceptable and unacceptable indications.This course also covers film quality, density, sensitivity, penetrameter use, and image evaluation techniques. You will get exposure to ASME, AWS, and ISO acceptance criteria and learn how to apply them correctly in real scenarios.Designed for both beginners and experienced professionals, this course is ideal for RT Level I & II candidates, QA/QC inspectors, weld shop supervisors, and anyone working in fabrication or inspection environments.You'll also receive downloadable sample images, reporting templates, and checklists to assist your learning. Our goal is to make you confident in interpreting radiographic films independently and accurately.By the end of this course, you’ll have hands-on skills and theoretical understanding to contribute effectively in inspection roles. The structured content will also help in exam preparation for NDT certifications. Whether you’re upgrading your skills or starting your NDT journey, this course is a valuable step forward. Enroll now and build strong expertise in RTFI with real industry relevance.
