Re: [MW:22376] Re: MATERIAL GROUPING IN API RP2A

In one of the Project (Subsea)CEQ was 0.42, We raised TQ, but disposition TOTAL asked do on same material WPQ and accepted based on the result.

Ali,
0,45% CEq is not so high, it's an
intermediate value, cracking could appear in steels with
different CEq (low or high) if non adequate welding
procedure is used.Material selection for each
element depends on the particular design considerations
(loads, temperature, corrosion consideration, etc), if the
legs are going to be exposed to low temperatures design must
take this in consideration, choosing an improved toughness
material.

SergioThank you for responding.
1-I think Carbon
equivalent ranges of up to 0.45% and higher is
permitted due to limitation of strength. because even
welding use low hydrogen in higher this range the
possibility of cracking is high. 2-Do
you have any design reference about category of redundancy
of structural member or critically of them. because in
previous projects acc. to AGIP or TOTAL spec. these items
are primary members and in 8.3.1,8.3.2 use of class A,B or
improved toughness property is recommended for
legs. 3- Do you have any example about
application of 11.1.3 b(fabrication
sequence)?Regards.

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change. Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...

The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams for predicting ferrite levels in austenitic stainless steel welds

Introduction Ferrite is important in avoiding hot cracking in during cooling from welding of austenitic stainless steels. 'Constitution diagrams' are used to predict ferrite levels from the composition by comparing the effects of austenite and ferrite stabilising elements. The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams are the original methods of predicting the phase balances in austenitic stainless steel welds. Nickel and chromium equivalents A 'nickel equivalent' is calculated for the austenite stabilising elements and a 'chromium equivalent' ferrite stabilising elements. These are used as the axes for the diagrams, which show the compositional equivalent areas where the phases austenite, ferrite, martensite (and mixtures of these) should be present. Although intended to show the phase balance of weld fillers, these diagrams can also be used to illustrate the phase balance of the 'parent' material. There are different diagrams for dif...
