yes, most of the practical orthographies (i.e. ones
that can be written without need for special fonts)
for Australian languages use either rt or rd, likewise
rn for the nasal, rl for the lateral, etc. It's
annoying if your language also has r+d or r+rd
clusters and when combined with all the other digraphs
tends to make the words look even longer than they are
already, but it's pretty standard now.

It's more in the line of an expedient, but I believe
Australian
specialists use rt, etc.
