Ultrasonic Thickness Gauging
TRAINING OBJECTIVES: This one day course is intended to provide the basic theory of ultrasonic technology to a
degree that the participants will have an understanding of ultrasonic thickness gauging. Participants in this hands-on
workshop will be able to better understand the pitfalls of ultrasonic thickness gauging with respect to material
velocities, surface roughness and geometrical configurations.
