Step 2: Define Asset (Floor)

Step 2: Define Asset (Shell)

Step 2: Define Asset (Roof)

Step 3: Define Components

Step 4: Define Inspection General Information

Enter the

General Information

of the specific inspection: 1. Inspection Start and End Date 2. Report Preparation Date 3. Tank Number 4. Inspection Type 5. Specification used 6. Office conducting the test 7. Client Information 8. Override if needed the report name © 2012 MISTRAS GROUP, INC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. DISSEMINATION, UNAUTHORIZED USE AND/OR DUPLICATION NOT PERMITTED.

Step 5: Define the General Tank Data

Enter the

Tank Data

Most of the information are automatically imported by Asset information.

Modify any secondary information here (like Coating, Manufacturer, etc.). The secondary info will be used in the report.

Step 6: Define the Shell Courses Information

Define the

Shell Courses Information

The Geometric information are from the Asset information.

Select Joint Efficiency and Course Material (or alternative define the Allowable Stress and Hydrostatic Allowable Stress).

This is critical for the calculations.

Step 7: Define Inspection Equipment

Define the

Equipment

used in the inspection • Select from the list of

Available Equipment

in the database (right list) and press the symbol to add it to the

Inspection Equipment

used (left list).

• Use filters (Equipment Type and Lab) or sort by any column in the list to easily identify the right equipment.

• Use the Up / Down arrows ( and ) next to the list to change the order of the

Inspection Equipment

. This affects only the report.

Step 8: Define Inspection Personnel

Define the

Inspection Personnel

• Select from the list of

Available Personnel

in the database (right list) and press the symbol to add him to the

Inspection Personnel

(left list) • Use filters (Lab) or sort by any column in the list to easily identify the right person.

• Use the Up / Down arrows ( and ) next to the list to change the order of the

Inspection Personnel

. This affects only the report.

Step 9: Define Job Information

Define the

Job Information

• Enter the PO, Work Order Number and Report Number.

• This is essential for the report.

Step 10: Check the General Data

• For the Forms in the Steps 5-10, there is a button “Report”. • Click it to Check the report produced for each form.

• The output is identical with the respective sections of the final report.

Step 11: Enter Inspection Data

Start filling the actual data.

Use the command:

Inspection

→

• Then the user could edit or enter more.

Step 16: Collect the Recommendations (2) If a specific template is used for the current client, a different form will be used

Step 17 : Inspection UT Data Input

•Access the Inspection Data Input form (use Data Entry button (see step 11)) • Here the user can insert information pertaining to the Plate UT data of the Tank Shell • Each button on the

right

, brings up a form for •UT Data for the Tank Parts •Floor MFL Scan data •Each button on the

left

, brings up a form for • Tank Components (Nozzles, Manholes etc.) • UT Data for the Tank Components • Shell and Edge Settlement Data • Tank Shell Verticality Readings © 2012 MISTRAS GROUP, INC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. DISSEMINATION, UNAUTHORIZED USE AND/OR DUPLICATION NOT PERMITTED.

Step 18 : Tank Shell Plate UT Data
