RE: [MW:23616] Fillet weld

By Materials & Welding

Dear Mr. Poojary,

QW-202.2(c) says:
''Qualification for Fillet Welds. WPS qualification for fillet welds may be made on groove-weld test coupons using test specimens specified in (a) or (b). Fillet-weld procedures so qualified may be used for welding all thicknesses of base metal for all sizes of fillet welds, and all diameters of pipe or tube in accordance with Table QW-451.4. Nonpressure-retaining fillet welds, as defined in other Seetions of the Code, may as an alternate be qualified with fillet welds only. Tests shall be made in accordance
with QW-180. Limits of qualification shall be in accordance witb Table QW-451.3.''

Table QW-451.4 Fillet Welds Qualified by Groove-Weld Tests shall also be considered.

Best regards

Dear Experts,
 
As per ASME, Welder is qualified to weld fillet joint, if he is qualified on groove joint. My question is -------------

 Wps approved for groove joint is applicable for fillet joint?

  If so where it is stated.

cordially,
Jay Poojary

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

By Materials & Welding
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

By Materials & Welding
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...
