RE: [MW:7446] ASME sec 9 (QW 452 & 351) doubt

An interpretation applies either to the Edition and Addenda in effect on the date of issuance of the interpretation or the Edition and Addenda stated in the interpretation. Subsequent revisions to the Code may supersede the interpretation.

 

For e.g. part 3 this interpretation refers to QW404.28, QW404.11, QW404.15, and QW404.16 , except QW404.15 remaining paras are not exist in the current edition.

Subject: [MW:7445] ASME sec 9 (QW 452 & 351) doubt

 

Dear all,
               I came across the interpretation of Sec 9 issued by ASME on year 1988. The question was

            A performance qualification groove weld test coupon has been successfully made by a welder on a  ¾ “ thick test coupon using transverse bend tests in accordance with QW-452. The test weld was made with one process, utilizing filler metals of two different F-numbers. Is the deposited weld metal thickness qualified, for each of the F-number filler metals used in qualification, “max . to be welded”. (Interpretation: IX-89-02  issued date OCT 6, 1988)

The answer given by the committee is YES .

Anybody agreeing with this answer?If yes please give the relevant statements in ASME sec 9 supporting that. 

Is this answer true if interpretation is as per ASME sec 9 2007 Ed ?
