Log a film interval
This guide covers the core NDT flow: logging a film interval so the radiograph is mapped to the welds it captures.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”- You need the NDT technician role on the project.
- Have the film identifier and the ISO / weld numbers the film covers to hand.
- Open the ISO whose welds the film covers.
- Start a new film interval and enter its identifying details (film number and the section of the strip it represents).
- Map the interval to the welds it captures — one interval can cover one or more welds.
- Record the radiograph result and any required NDT details (method, technique, outcome).
- Save. The film interval and its result are now linked to each covered weld.
What happens next
Section titled “What happens next”- Each covered weld now shows its NDT coverage, so the radiograph is traceable to the weld.
- NDT results feed the weld’s acceptance and the quality record of its test package.
