3.1u Theory

This app has been created by the NDT Academy by an experienced and current underwater inspector and is for anyone taking the CSWIP 3.1u and 3.2u underwater inspectors course.

This app will not replace the need to do the inspectors courses but is designed to be used alongside them.

No one can know exactly what questions are going to be asked in your theory exam. We have studied the 3.1u and 3.2u manuals extensively and have written these questions section by section to aid in your understanding of the subject matter.

You will not get these exact questions in any exams you do ( if you did we would all be getting 100% in all our exams!) But they are a good analogue of what to expect.


Also if you are consistently getting a high score in each category while using this app it shows that you have gained a good understanding of the subject.

With a database of over 200 questions and answers (and an instant feedback feature meaning you can keep track of how you are doing), you can use this tool to assist you with learning the vast volume of theoretical material required to successfully pass your course.

Use this app ahead of undertaking the course and you will be a step ahead, meaning you have more time and headspace to concentrate on the practical elements of the course.

The app will test your knowledge of underwater inspection and help you to learn.

There are 15 categories of questions covering the following:

Offshore structures
Loading on structures
Deterioration
Concrete deterioration
Marine growth
Corrosion
Corrosion protection
Corrosion monitoring
Welding defects
Photography
Using video
Ultrasonics
Methods of inspection
IRM, QA/QC, Recording
Cleaning
