[MW:14151] Weld strength reduction factor(W) for seamless pipe


Dear experts,

As per 2010 edition of ASME 31.3 weld strength reduction factor (W) shall be applied to circumferential welds at elevated temperature. Hence under such case factor W  in accordance with table 302.3.5 shall be multiplied to SE for seamless pipes also in pipe thickness calculation.

Can anyone please confirm if my understanding is correct or not.

Regards,
Harsha
