[MW:9890] WPQ

Hi all,

  We have one welder qualified in GTAW process 1/2 inch diameter 2mm thick (cover diameter greater  than half inch and until 4 mm thick), the same welder qualified GTAW/SMAW 3" thick 5.49 with 3 mm welded GTAW, means qualified for diameters greater than 2.1/2 inch and thick until 11 mm.

We have to weld pipe 1/2 inch thickness 7.47 mm, my request is, may this welder do the job for this weld?
ASME sec IX authorise to combine the range qualification of welder if is qualified two times ? Please give me the paragraph


Kind regards
