Re: [MW:23984] ASME B31.3_2014 Minimum thickness for PWHT

No welding should be carried out below 10 degree Celsius, u have welding is done at above 10 degree

Hi...;
we refer to ASME B 31.3 latest issued (2014), the Table 331.1.3 (Exemption to Mandatory Postweld Heat Treatment), the tabulation for P 1 (all groups), it indicated that "All thicknesses" for "All of type of welds" there is no need to perform PWHT. Except that >25mm they need to perform preheat at 95degC.

So based on above, it now looks all thicknesses are exempted from PWHT, and there is no need to even perform preheat for weld thicknesses <=25mm; and if we just perform preheat the PWHT is now exempted for any thicknesses. Table 330.1.1 -2014 indicated Preheat for <=25mm is 10degC (again it is not clear on this 10degC requirement).
