[Calc_UT 1.03] was designed to assist with angle beam inspection calculations primarily in a lab type setting, although field use with a portable laptop computer is possible, it would not always be practical.

The program was written on a Windows 2000 workstation in Visual Basic 6.0 Professional, it also has been tested with Windows NT4.0 and Windows98.

Calc_UT performs all the needed calculations for Angle Beam Inspection to determine:

· Sound Travel Distance
· Surface Travel Distance
· Indication or Defect Depth

It also has built in the option for Inch or Millimeter display. The only required variable that needs to be known is the Material Thickness, with that known all other calculations can be performed.

[Calc_UT 1.03] was assembled primarily as a pastime project as I have enjoyed programming small Non Destructive Testing applications with my career in the NDE field. I have also compiled some other small NDT related applications, if interested please email me, questions and comments are welcome.

Calc UT is Shareware; you may use this program for evaluation and distribute it freely, but please register with the author by email.

Thank you,
