During the course, I was first trained in how to mathematically lay out piping systems and sheet metal ventilation systems, then I was given exercises and a written and practical test of my knowledge.

Editor's Note: The Good Old Days

X-ray Adds Value
by Bahman Zoofan
The capability of X-ray computed tomography (CT) to extract multiple slices from an object and then develop a 3-D-reconstructed volumetric image has proven to be a powerful tool in quality control. The technique can be used in different branches of industry where conventional radiography fails to reveal all the hidden flaws because of the inherent complications of X-ray beam alignment.
