ANDTBF - 06 NDT Training Syllabus

This document provides guidelines for setting up training syllabuses for radiography (RT) technicians in accordance with EN 4179. Section 1 covers the general topics for RT training, including the history, principles, theory, and physics of radiography. Trainees would learn about electromagnetic radiation, x-ray generation, image formation, exposure techniques, radiographic films, screens, and quality indicators. The guidelines include learning objectives on single and double wall radiography, multiple film loading, geometric exposure principles, and the use of penetrameters and image quality indicators.
