Re: [MW:14361] Time between root pass and hot pass

DEARS,

Dear all,
We are doing 20" pipe line project with API 5L Gr.B material as per B31.4, Welding process SMAW (E6010 for root and rest with E 7018, both are up-hill) our welder welded one joint root pass and he kept this joint for long time. But our Qc instructed to cut and re-weld the joint. But the time between root pass and hot pass not mentioned in approved WPS and client specification also.
It necessary to cut and re-weld?
