Dear all, PIPING Mat is cs and 35mm WPS is qualifed with dull furness pwht.welding process SMAW AND GTAW.code is ASMEix and 31.3. To improve productivity and avoid full furness PWHT for only repair joints WHAT EXTRA THINGS OR NDE OR PRECAUTION SHOULD TAKE FOR LOCAL REAPIR PWHT OR 360 BAND PWHT? Is it allowed normally or you will have to have WPS.? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Materials & Welding" group.

Dear all, I have two queries: MOC: P8Gr1(SS347 internal) PWHT on job with LAS is at 705+/-10 degree C for 10 hrs. Available PQR: 700 degree C for 8 hrs. Can I support same PQR for welding of SS347 internal which will undergo PWHT at 705+/- 10 degree C along with LAS??? Impact: not applicable for SS. Second query: Interpretation of QW407.1 (b).

    Dear experts,   I need to procure this material   Hex Bolt & 2 nuts M20 x 75 based on ISO 3506-1 / A4-80 based on your experience, could you give me your feedback about material certificate, tests requirements and which I need to work with.   Thanks   ludmila

You may use SMAW with approved WPS and with expert welder but, as compared to SAW the productivity is too less, chances of defects are more, more workmanship required, more precise testing is required and no client will take chance for the delay and the quality.  Regards, Anosh Wankhade From: Kannayeram Gnanapandithan <kgpandithan@gmail.com> Sent: Mon, 29 Feb 2016 11:10:12 To: materials-welding <materials-welding@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: [MW:24404] Welding by SAW process is it mandatory for heavy thick vessels in H2 service SMAW is a time consuming and quality purely based on welder skill.

When dealing with thick sections of fine grain structural steels, the welding engineer shall consider that although low cooling rate is favorable for impact toughness (especially HAZ toughness) but preheat is also required to reduce the residual stress as a result of high volume of the weld metal and reduce the risk of cracking especially on fist layers. On one hand, a minimum preheat temperature is required (especially for fist layers) to prevent cracking and on the other hand, the heat input and interpass temperature shall be kept under a certain level to ensure coarse grain structure will not form (especially at HAZ).
