[MW:20463] Acceptance criteria

Dears :

as I mentioned before most standard told max 2 times for same weld .
WPS issued  to check :
- welders ability to do weld ( even repair )
- the mechanical properties as requested .
- flow it in work .
etc.........
  about to material used i agreed high strength plus thickness , we need to used preheat :

to reduce the cooling due to high thickness .
- removed internal stress
- removed the risk of  delay cracks
plus post weld treatment  or heat treatment ( annealing or normalize as it request ).
for undercut it depends on acceptance criteria but normal RT can not told it is sharp or smooth , the depth of under cut is factory to accept or reject , normal undercut removed not need weld .   45 mm smooth still you in safe but that mean travel speed high or current high .
same as concavity it depends on your accept criteria

API 1104 2013 also repair two times .

warm regards
