RE: [MW:8256] how to select a PQR test coupon

Dear Mr. Padmanabhan,

As per Asme Sec-IX, If we are going for 12mm Thickness material then the lower limit will start from 5mm since the thickness limit of Impact Test is not applicable for PQR undergoing Normalizing.

See para. QW.403.6

 

Thanking you,

Best regards,

Dear Ajay Singh,

Please find my reply given below

1.Select the test coupon thickness of 11.8 mm to 12mm Thickness.Since you are carrying out heat treament above upper transformation temperature the  max base metal thickness limit is 1.1 x T.

 

2. Also due to impact test,it covers  lower T/2 limit also.i.e 6mm

 

I hope that you understand above explanation.
