NDT Inspection and Repair of FRP Structures20 January 2011, Chesterfield Aim of the WorkshopFibre reinforced polymer (FRP) materials are designed to get the best performance for a particular situation, and their ability to be inspected, maintained, replaced or repaired to a verifiable standard is of prime importance. When damage occurs due to material breakdown from wear, fatigue, external impact or misuse, then the decision to repair or replace is taken. Many replacement parts are very expensive, and so repair must be an option to make a product viable in a service situation.The more primary a structure is, and the closer it operates to its design limits, the more difficult the repair. However, even heavily-loaded primary structural FRPs have been successfully repaired for many years. Heavily loaded, oriented fibre, advanced FRP structures require careful engineering design of major repairs; it is not simply a matter of applying a patch.NDT inspection techniques have been developed to assess damage and repair requirements, and to quantify the structure after repair.This workshop will look at current best practice, new developments in inspection and repair methodology and examine the importance of preparation, repair assessment and the skill requirements of the operative involved. Inspection and qualification of the repair will also be addressed. Any gaps in technology or knowledge will be identified and ways to address these discussed.Programme10:00 Registration10:30 NDT Inspection and Repair of FRP StructuresRichard Lee, ESR Technology11:00 Repair Methodology for Naval Composite StructuresFrancoise Artiga-Dubois, Center of Expertise for Naval Structures and Materials, France11:30 Break12:00 Commercial Repair Non Destructive Testing Experiences in Composite Structures and ProductsPatrick Eaton, NDT Services12:30 Thermographic Non Destructive Evaluation for Composite MaterialsGui Yun Tian, University of Newcastle13:00 Lunch14:00 Active Thermography of Aerospace CompositesShayz Ikram, LOT Oriel Ltd14:30 Ultrasonic NDTTom Marshall, Sonatest15:00 Discussion15:15 Close15:15 Tour of NetComposites (Optional)15:45 End of TourRegistrationEach delegate place at this event costs £135 (ex VAT).
