[MW:1971] Re: WELDER QUALIFICATION

Mr. Dale Jones
As you said to weld with F5 stainless steel filler material which is needed to weld with matching filler on P8 materials.I would like to add more...i.e. as per QW 423 Alternate Base Materials for welder qualification we can weld P1 materiel also with F5 SS Filler in order to qualify welder for any particular P8 WPS.
This is economical as well as within limit of code.
Please correct me if my interpretation is wrong
Regards

This is correct that the welder can weld on all of these materials but do not ignore the other variables. For example the welder will be restricted to the Fnumber filler material he qualified with. An example is a SMAW qualification. When a welder qualifies on P1 material with a matching F4 SMAW filler he will be qualified to the base material range stated below and with F1-F4 carbon steel filler material. This will not qualify him to weld with F5 stainless steel filler material which is needed to weld with matching filler on P8 materials. The same concept will apply to various other P numberd materials. To fully understand this concept and the other variables that will restrict a welders qualifications, read article 3 and QW-416 in ASME Section 9

Not only P11. Also P34 & P41 thru P49. The reason is, the skill of the welder required to weld any of these material is same. So he can proove it in any one P No. mentioned .

IF A WELDER IS QUALIFIED FOR P1 material and in code it is written
that he is qualified upto P11.

i wanna know what will be reason that a welder can do welding on all
material upto P11 instead he is only qualified in P1

How fun is this? IMing with Windows Live Messenger just got better.

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, ...
