[MW:14477] How many times can a weld be repaired without impairing its quality?

Gents,
A very sensitive issue for most of us, I am sure from time to time, particularly when we are working at site with limited inventories at a given time: How many times can a weld be repaired without impairing its quality? We are facing a cut out of plate butt weld (9% Ni) with no additional plates if required to replace the welded ones if they are condemned.
There was an article some time ago addressing this issue (

http://www.twi.co.uk/services/technical-information/faqs/material-faqs/faq-how-many-times-can-a-weld-be-re-weldwed), but unfortunately it seems to have been taken off from TWI site.

Please advise.

Best regards,

Shashank Vagal
