NASA-STD-5009A, NASA TECHNICAL STANDARD: NONDESTRUCTIVE EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS FOR FRACTURE CRITICAL METALLIC COMPONENTS (19-JUN-2018)

NASA-STD-5009A, NASA TECHNICAL STANDARD: NONDESTRUCTIVE EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS FOR FRACTURE CRITICAL METALLIC COMPONENTS (19-JUN-2018)., The purpose of this NASA Technical Standard is to establish the nondestructive evaluation (NDE) requirements for any NASA system or component, flight or ground, where fracture control is a requirement. This NASA Technical Standard defines the primary requirements for NDE in support of NASA-STD-5019A, Fracture Control Requirements for Spaceflight Hardware. NDE applied in-process for purposes of process control and NDE of damage tolerant composites are not addressed in this document.
