- W2808040423 abstract "Abstract Introduction Safely transporting dangerous products such as fuels and other chemicals depends mostly on the integrity of the tanks and vessels in which they are stored. Regular vehicular inspection using non-destructive testing is an important coadjutant to assure the quality and reliability of transportation vessels: for instance, thickness measurement using ultrasound equipment. Typically, vehicular inspections are done by accredited inspection bodies. One way to attest to the conformity of accredited inspection bodies is a proficiency test. This paper discloses a proficiency test in which accredited inspection bodies took part in performing ultrasound thickness measurement in tanker trucks and vessels used to transport dangerous products. Method A total of 59 participants participated in the proficiency test. An artefact was developed for the proficiency test, consisting of metal-walled hollow cubes whose thickness ranged from 2 to 12 mm. To be approved, the participants were required to yield measurement results statistically equivalent to the reference value for all 6 walls of the cube assigned to it, partially approved for an equivalent measurement for 2 to 5 walls and disapproved with one or no equivalent results. The statistics used involved the Z-score (p = 0.95). Results Five participants failed to provide a result during the proficiency test (9%), 16 were approved (27%), 35 were partially approved (59%) and only 3 were disapproved (5%). Conclusions The proficiency test disclosed that measurement system calibration plays an important role among the successful accredited inspection bodies. Technical training on metrological issues, leading to professional and technical certification, would also improve the general performance for thickness measurement using ultrasound. Practical applications Safety in transporting dangerous products depends on the capability to perform a good technical evaluation of the integrity of vessels and tanks, which can be evaluated with the aid of a metrological tool, called a proficiency test." @default.
