The purpose of this procedure is to establish a standard method for evaluating the effectiveness of Prestressed Concrete Producer (Plant) Quality Control (QC) processes for minimizing the incidence of major defects in prestressed concrete Products. This evaluation process requires monitoring the rate of major production defects that occur in Products; using these major defects rates as a basis for evaluating the effectiveness of the Plant’s QC efforts; and taking action that will improve the Plant’s QC efforts when they are below the satisfactory level.

This guideline outlines application details for Computed Radiology (CR) examination using a process in which photostimulable luminescence is emitted by the penetrating radiation detector to a Storage Phosphor Imaging Plate (SPIP). Because the technique is complex and the applications for CR examination are diverse, this guideline is not intended to be limiting or restrictive, but rather to address the general applications of the technology and thereby facilitate its use. The general principles discussed in this guideline apply broadly to penetrating radiation CR systems. However, this guideline is written specifically for use with X-ray and gamma-ray systems.
