Re: [MW:16037] SA187 GR11 CL2 Preheat And PWHT of 12 mm PLATE

Selection of 12mm is ok for your project work & want to study the effect of PWHT on this material. For this purpose you need not pre heat this material thickness.

More no of passes will improve the mechanical properties.

Preheat for 12thk is not mandatory, but always preferred. Refer Non-mandatory appendix-R  of ASME Sec VIII Div.1 for reference.

 

For 12thk as per UCS-56 Table PWHT is not mandatory. Hence advised to select thk 16mm or above for your project.

 

Root pass can be welded by either TIG or SMAW with the back grinding for SMAW process. No. of passes shall be based on dia of filler wire/electrode, current/voltage & travel speed. Advised to weld the joint with the lesser heat input.

 

In case of applicability of PWHT, advised intermediate stress relieve at temp of 450deg for 30 minutes prior to final heat treatment, if heat treatment is not performed immediate after welding.

preheat is always better, if not possible, ok for 12mm plate
 since it is plate and both side welding is possible, so tig for root
not require
