Abstract

This paper describes the organization, procedures, and methodology used by one railroad tank car fleet owner to implement nondestructive testing into the total product cycle for railroad tank cars. The interplay between regulators, design engineering, quality assurance, and field service personnel is discussed as it relates to establishing objectives, responsibilites and mechanisms for the successful implementation of NDT in the life cycle of the tank car nondestructive testing keywords: total product cycle, M-1002.
