[MW:766] Re: Joint Factor

By Materials & Welding

To know and understand what is joint efficiency and why it is needed, have a look into ASME B31.3/ B31.1.
If you are procuring the pipes, I hope the thickness of the pipe has been mentioned. If so I hope
the calculation has been  done  and the JE has been taken care, if not it will become another plant
accident news to come.

With regards,
Kannan

Actually term is Joint Efficiency
For Full Radiography(100%)-Joint Efficiency is 1%
For spot radiography(85%)-Joint Efficiency is 0.85%

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

By Materials & Welding
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...
