Re: [MW:11208] Renewal of Welder Qualification

Dear Limesh,
 
Just see clause 452.3 in ASME Sec.IX, there are Diameter restrictions, you have qualified your welder in 1 1/2 " Pipe means he falls in 1"(25mm) to 2 7/8"(73mm) restriction, which says Welder can weld from 1" to unlimited, but now for his renewal you are supporting 8" pipe, So asthetically it is not possible, he may fall in over 2 7/8" ( ie 73mm to unlimited), So better to show RTs of 1 1/2" or less than 2 7/8" Pipe . So that he can regain his qualification subject to his contuity record.

Dear All,

Welder Qualification Code: ASME BPV SEC IX

I have a qualified welder with following diameter range.

1.1/2'' and above


Now his qualification is going to expire and I would like to renew it by showing supporting radiography reports.

Is it possible to renew the above qualification by showing the radiography report of an 8" diameter pipe?


Regards,

Limesh
