Re: [MW:4846] Query for incomplete welding

Dear azmi, 

To answer your question, no 1 is more accurate.

The name full penetration calls for the penetration on the root side. Normally if the welding design thickness weld calls for 10mm, it is not wrong for the welder to fill up the groove up to the 12 mm of the plate thickness. This gives a good blend between the weld face and the groove edge of the face (toe area). If welding is not a possible solution, then the remaining groove edge has to be grind  blend such as to eliminate sharp notches which weakens the weld.

Dear All,
 
Please clarify below points.
 
 
The designed thickness for a plate to plate welding is 10 mm and actual thickness used in the production is 12 mm. welding requires Single side full penetration weld.
 
1) considering the above case is it acceptable  if  welding groove is filled  upto 10 mm thickness only considering complete penetration on root side.
 
2) Is it acceptable if complete 12 mm thk groove is filled and we have incomplete penetrartion of 2 mm on root side.
 
Please give Code reference(if any).
 
 
Thanks & Regards

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
