RE: [MW:13267] Identification of thickness on Radiography films.

I don't know of any Code that mandates putting thickness on the actual radiograph, although since there are many codes, there may be. The A.I.'s /third parties I've always dealt with know to look at the prints/ISO's, etc. There is usually a report that indicates the thickness. It is up the third party, A.I. to read the report to find information regarding the radiograph and from there to ascertain whether correct IQI has been used. If we have room on the I.D. we will put the thickness on the report but if not, all information is on the report.

Subject: [MW:13257] Identification of thickness on Radiography films.

Dear Experts,

During Interpreting Radiography films at one of my vendor's works, I observed that, there is no identification /indicate thickness of job on film so I rejected the film. As far as generally everyone related field experience persons are know unless identification of thickness on film it is very difficult to know which penetrameter to be used but my vendor is arguing for the same. According to him one of "Level III" person insisit them there is no need to mentioned thickness in Radiography films and it sufficient if it indicate in Radiography interpretion report.
Suppose in piping number of joints/piping spools are comming with verious thickness in same report in such case it is possible to identify required penetrameter ? My anser is no, each Radiography films must be indicat thickness of joint/job. Requested to suggest/advise.

Sincerely yours,
RK Vichare
