Welding Inspection- PA UT
|
 |

Our partner company in Edmonton Canada, Metalogic,
has developed innovative patented, technology, training and procedures.
These methods have completely replaced radiography on new construction
and maintenance activities in fabrication shops and process facilities
while increasing the quality of the welds. Metalogic has
extensive phased array experience on the following industry sectors:
oil & Gas, power projects, pipeline, and Pulp & Paper.
Metalogic has worked with clients, contractors, and regulatory
agencies on both maintenance and new construction projects.
This has allowed Metalogic to develop unique services, technology,
and software to significantly reduce inspection cost
and risk for our clients on the following assets:
- Boiler Tubes (HELIX Solution)
- Water wall Tubes (HELIX Solution)
- Headers
- Steam Drums
- Mud Drums
- High Energy Piping
- Continuous Blow Down Tanks
- Turbines
- Structural
- Pressure Vessels up to 12" thick
- Piping diameters from .5" and up (HELIX Solution)
- Tanks
- Spheres
- Structural
- Digesters
- Dryer Cans
- Lime Kilns

Impact Echo (IE) & Spectral
Analysis of Surface Waves (SASW) |
|
The
Impact Echo (IE) method is used for rapid flaw detection and
thickness evaluation of concrete and masonry structural materials.
The method is normally applied to plate-like objects such as slabs
and walls, but is also used on columns, mat foundations, and beams.
The method requires access to only one side for testing, and can
measure not only flaw location, but also depth. This method is
used extensively for slab thickness profiling without the need
to drill, core or excavate.
Applicable On: Floors, Beams, Runways, Tunnels, Dams, Columns,
Walls, Pavements, Slabs up to 24" (60m) thick
Spectral Analysis of Surface Waves (SASW) method is applied to
structural elements to estimate surface-opening crack depths,
fire damage and freeze-thaw damage depths, and the measure relative
concrete quality. It can also be used for thickness profiling
of pavements, including asphalt and layer systems. The method
uses the dispersive characteristics of surface waves to determine
the variation of the shear wave velocity (stiffness) of layered
systems with depth.
Applications of SASW_S include, but are not limited to,
the following:
• Determination of pavement system profiles including
the surface layer, base and subgrade materials
• Determination of surface opening crack depths
• Freeze-Thaw damage depth measurement
• Fire damage depth measurement
• Determination of abutment depths of bridges
• Condition assessments of concrete liners in tunnels,
and other structural concrete conditions
