RE: [MW:15088] Acceptance criteria for Tungsten Inclusion in RT

I found the acceptance criteria for tungsten inclusion which is a rounded indication in Mandatory appendix 4 of ASME Sec. VIII Div.1. I think Jatin didn't read my question properly as i had clearly mentioned that Construction code was Sec VIII Div.1   Regards   Prem Nautiyal   --- On Mon, 8/13/12, Jean Staton <Jean.Staton@metco-ndt.com> wrote: From: Jean Staton <Jean.Staton@metco-ndt.com> Subject: RE: [MW:15084] Acceptance criteria for Tungsten Inclusion in RT To: "materials-welding@googlegroups.com" <materials-welding@googlegroups.com> Date: Monday, August 13, 2012, 6:06 PM Curious, first code reference was ASME VIII, DIV. 1 why did you reference ASME B 31.3?  I am unable to see any reference in ASME VIII that tells me to reference B31.3.  WHY would we go to a piping code when we are on a vessel code in the first place?   From: materials-welding@googlegroups.com [mailto:materials-welding@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jatin Dave Sent: Saturday, August 11, 2012 7:48 AM To: materials-welding@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [MW:15064] Acceptance criteria for Tungsten Inclusion in RT     Dear Prem,   IN ASME B 31.3 Table No. 341.3.2 criteria are  given   F    Slag inclusion, tungsten inclusion, or elongated indication                                              Individual length ≤ T w /3                                              Individual width ≤ 2.5 mm (3⁄32 in.) and ≤ T w /3                                              Cumulative length ≤ T w in any 12T w weld length G           Slag inclusion, tungsten inclusion, or elongated indication                                               Individual length ≤ 2T w                                                Individual width ≤ 3 mm (1⁄8 in.) and ≤ T w /2                                                 Cumulative length ≤ 4T w in any 150 mm (6 in.) weld length Please see Table    Regards Jatin Dave 9099026886   From: joydev dalai <joykolkata07@gmail.com> To: materials-welding@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, 10 August 2012 10:51 AM Subject: Re: [MW:15053] Acceptance criteria for Tungsten Inclusion in RT   Dear Prem,   There is nothing cleared about tungsten inclusion, for better information please see in ASME sec.VIII Div.1 ,UW-51 paragraph  On Thu, Aug 9, 2012 at 9:24 PM, prem nautiyal <prem_nautiyal26@yahoo.com> wrote: Dear Friends   After reviewing a RT film of a Circ.seam joint (16mm thk), which has been welded with TIG + SMAW, i have observed a tungsten inclusion @2-3mm in dia. The construction code of the vessel is ASME Sec VIII Div.1   No doubt this tungsten inclusion is a defect, but i would like to know whether there is any acceptance criteria related to diameter for the same in ASME Sec VIII Div.1. Please give Code reference.   Regards   Prem Nautiyal Cell: 9769316004   -- To post to this group, send email to materials-welding@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to materials-welding+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group's bolg at http://materials-welding.blogspot.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/groups/MaterialsWelding-122787?home=&gid=122787&trk=anet_ug_hm   The views expressed/exchnaged in this group are members personel views and meant for educational purposes only, Users must take their own decisions w.r.t. applicable code/standard/contract documents.     -- To post to this group, send email to materials-welding@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to materials-welding+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group's bolg at http://materials-welding.blogspot.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/groups/MaterialsWelding-122787?home=&gid=122787&trk=anet_ug_hm   The views expressed/exchnaged in this group are members personel views and meant for educational purposes only, Users must take their own decisions w.r.t. applicable code/standard/contract documents.       -- To post to this group, send email to materials-welding@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to materials-welding+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group's bolg at http://materials-welding.blogspot.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/groups/MaterialsWelding-122787?home=&gid=122787&trk=anet_ug_hm   The views expressed/exchnaged in this group are members personel views and meant for educational purposes only, Users must take their own decisions w.r.t. applicable code/standard/contract documents.     DISCLAIMER: The information contained in this e-mail may be confidential and is intended solely for the use of the named addressee.
