Nondestructive Testing Standards

ASTM's nondestructive testing standards provide guides for the appropriate methods and techniques used to detect and evaluate flaws in materials and objects without destroying the specimen at hand. Such tests include radiographic, ultrasonic, electromagnetic (eddy-current), X-ray, acoustic, and tomographic techniques. Detected flaws are evaluated for possible rejection due to nonconformance to set acceptance criteria. These nondestructive testing standards are instrumental to laboratories and a wide variety of industrial plants for examining a material's quality and, consequently, suitability for intended use.
