About the course

Learning Outcomes
Attendees who successfully complete this course will be able to:
  1. Review a material test report (MTR) for compliance to the purchase order and the referenced ASTM steel specifications.
  2. Apply the ordering requirements and any supplementary requirements from the referenced ASTM steel specification and apply any additional purchaser requirements.
  3. Analyze the material test report (MTR) to confirm that steelmaking practices, heat treatment, and testing required by the ASTM steel specification is correctly reported in the material test report (MTR).
  4. Interpret the manufacturer versus purchaser requirements when ordering steel products to a referenced ASTM steel specification.
  5. Analyze and interpret product marking, dual-marking, and multiple marking when reviewing the material test report (MTR) for steel products ordered to ASTM steel specifications and ASME Codes.
Who Should Attend

QA and QC personnel, engineers, inspectors, maintenance personnel, NDE technicians, experienced tradespeople, who work for owner-user companies, EPCs, inspection companies, fabricators, maintenance service and repair companies, and inspection companies from refineries, upgrader plants, oil sands plants, SAGD plants, petrochemical plants, power plants, gas/oil pipeline companies, pulp mills, repair and maintenance shops, equipment manufacturers, third party inspection and NDE companies, and all supporting industries.
