Learn about the non-destructive testing of composites

The British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing is hosting a workshop at St Mary’s Stadium, Southampton on 27 February 2018 to update the industry on all the latest news concerning marine composites.

While a significant amount of non-destructive testing (NDT) is already performed on marine composites, the sector needs further support in a number of areas, including the development of NDT acceptance criteria at the design stage for manufacturing and in-service defects, guidance on appropriate NDT method and inspection process selection and new techniques for utilising NDT results for structural integrity assessment.

This workshop brings together marine sector regulators, insurers, designers, manufacturers, constructors and operators to discuss the opportunities for, and benefits from, improved and enhanced NDT of marine composites. The aim is to generate a document that captures these NDT requirements and ‘what success looks like’ for future NDT and its link to structural integrity and risk management.
