Dear Sir,

 

The Indian Indian Institute of Welding (IIW), Chennai Branch, is organising a two day COURSE ON METALLURGICAL ASPECTS RELATED TO WELDING (MARWEL-08) during 25 and 26 September, 2008, at Hotel Radha Park Inn, 171, Jawaharlal Nehru Salai, Chennai - 600106. This course is specifically designed for practicing welding engineers, technocrats and managers; designers; inspection and quality control engineers; fabrication engineers, research scholars, and academicians involved in teaching welding; but did not have any formal training in metallurgy. I am enclosing a brochure for your perusal.

 

Welding plays a key role in every manufacturing process in a wide range of industries Any welding engineer involved in design, fabrication or inspection of components for petrochemical, power, nuclear, and other industries would agree that a proper understanding of welding metallurgy is very important at all stages of fabrication for the successful execution of the job. Unfortunately, most of the welding or design engineers do not receive formal metallurgical education during their graduation. The knowledge gained from experience is often insufficient to make appropriate decision. It is not uncommon that wrong decisions taken without proper understanding of the welding metallurgy results in significant losses, delays or cost overrun both in execution of projects and during the operation of plant and equipments.

 

The subject content of MARWEL 2008 has been drawn up to address the above issues. Eminent speakers from the industries and research institutions will deliver lectures on 14 topics which include

 

v     Physical metallurgy principles relevant to welding

v     Welding metallurgy of different steels, cast iron, austenitic stainless steel, duplex stainless steel and Ni base alloys

v     Welding metallurgy of Al and Ti alloys

v     Metallurgical aspects of choosing welding consumables

v     Metallurgy of Dissimilar Material Joining and Surfacing

v     Metallurgy of weld cracking

v     Metallurgical considerations in specification, procurement, inspection

v     Metallurgy in codes and standards

v     The science and technology of heat treatment

v     Mechanical Testing of welded joints

v     Corrosion of welded joints

v     Fracture Mechanics and Fitness for purpose

v     Metallurgical considerations in Non-destructive testing evaluation

 

I am writing this letter to request you to nominate delegates from your organisation in large numbers to MARWEL 2008. I am sure the delegates would benefit immensely by attending NECOR 2008. I also invite you to advertise in the Proceedings of MARWEL 2008 and/or be a sponsor of the Workshop.

 

I also request you to give wide publicity to this Workshop amongst your contacts.

 

Thanking you and with warm regards

 

Yours sincerely

Chairman

The IIW, Chennai Branch

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

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...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
