Re: Fw: [MW:7855] ASME BPV SEC IX Material Range issue

John,

 

The query is written that, "actual PQR is P1 G1  to P1  G2, how can we extend WPS to different P no. ie  P2 G2 to P2 G2 (Disregard typo error).

 

I have overlook the query. and very well agree you and Karhik, if it is " P1G2 to P1G2" or "P1G1 to P1G1"

 

Regards

You are incorrect.

 

QW-403.5 addresses Group number restrictions for base metals when impact testing is required.

 

Please review QW-403.5, end of third paragraph:  "For ferrous materials . . . In addition, when base metals of two different P-Number  Group Number combinations are qualified using a single test coupon, that coupon qualifies the welding of those two P-Number Group Numbers to themselves as well as to each other using the variables qualified."

 

 

Please also note the following Code update notification (from HSB web site):

Addenda:	A06
Code Book:	IX
Subpart or Table:	Article IV
Code Paragraph:	QW-403.5
ASME Tracking Number:	BC03-1063
Part:

 

Subject: Clarify Qualification Requirements for Dissimilar Welds

Description: Revised QW-403.5 to clarify that different PQRs qualified for base metals within the same P-No., but having different Group numbers, may be used to support welding the different group numbers to each other in combination, provided all remaining essential and supplementary essential variables are the same.

 

So as  of the 2006 Addenda of Section IX – the proposal to write three WPS's {P1G1 –P1G1, P1G2-P1G2, and P1G1-P1G2} is valid and correct.

 

Obviously if impacts are not required, Group Number is superfluous, and all P1materials are qualified to weld to all P1 materials.

 

John.

Aneesh,

 

Regarding the Query No.2, the actual PQR is P1 G1  to P1  G2. So is it possible to weld P2 G2 to P2 G2 as per QW 403.5?

 

You cannot weld P2 G2 to P2 G2  with existing P1 G1  to P1  G2 qualification

Hi, Yes. Can write if impact test is not applicable.   Thanks & Regards   (Karthik)   Karthikeyan.S QA/QC Manager Getabec Energy Co.,Ltd. 379,Moo6,Soi8,Nikhomphatana, Rayong-21180, Thailand.

Is there any problem for welding P1 Group No.1 to P1 Group No.1  &  P1 Group No.2 to P1 Group No.2 based on above PQR? QW403.5 For ferrous materials in table QW/QB-422, a procedure qualification shall be made for each P-Number Group Number combination of base metals, even though procedure qualification tests have been made for each of the two base metals welded to itself. If, however, two or more qualification records have the same essential and supplementary essential variables, except that the base metals are assigned to different Group Numbers within the same P-Number, then the combination of base metals is also qualified. In addition, when base metals of two different P-Number Group Number combinations are qualified using a single test coupon, that coupon qualifies the welding of those two P-Number Group Numbers to themselves as well as to each other using the variables qualified. This variable does not apply when impact testing of the heat-affected zone is not required by other Sections. Quiery No.2 2.  Can I write separate WPS (with impact test) based on above PQR for, Material – P1 Group No. 1 to P1 Group No. 1 Material – P2 Group No. 2 to P2 Group No. 2 QW200.2 (f) Multiple WPSs With One PQR/Multiple PQRs With One WPS. Several WPSs may be prepared from the data on a single PQR (e.g., a 1G plate PQR may support WPSs for the F, V, H, and O positions on plate or pipe within all other essential variables). A single WPS may cover several essential variable changes as long as a supporting PQR exists for each essential and, when required, supplementary essential variable [e.g., a single WPS may cover a thickness range from 1⁄16 in. (1.5 mm) through 11⁄4 in. (32 mm) if PQRs exist for both the 1⁄16 in. (1.5 mm) through 14 3⁄16 in. (5 mm) and 3⁄16 in. (5 mm) through 11⁄4 in. (32 mm) thickness ranges].   Quiery No.3 Is there any problem for showing all material range in a single WPS based on above PQR? Ie, qualified range of materials- P1 Group No. 1 & P1 Group No. 2 in the same WPS. No problem.You can write all material range as much as possible within the P number specified in the WPS Thanks & Regards,   (Karthik) Karthikeyan.S QA/QC Manager Getabec Energy Co.,Ltd. 379,Moo6,Soi8,Nikhomphatana, Rayong-21180, Thailand.
