UK NANDTB Documents

UK National Aerospace NDT Board 

Please note the change of address for the British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing, Midsummer House, Riverside Way, Bedford Road, Northampton NN1 5NX, United Kingdom. All documents will be amended as and when they are reviewed.

Document Control
The NANDTB Secretariat, which is provided by The British Institute of NDT, publishes and controls the documentation approved by the Board for publication. The following are the stages of the process:
  1. The Secretary drafts documents at the request of the Board, or receives drafts from members' nominees;
  2. Drafts are progressed through committee to final approval by the Board (no logo or issue date indicates draft in progress);
  3. Documents are published and distributed, recording status in this document;
  4. Documents are reviewed and revised after a defined period (document life), then
  5. Documents are resubmitted for approval by the Board (or the same body as originally approved the document).
Some documents have supporting powerpoint presentations and these can be found below the document in blue text.
