RE: [MW:24365] Flange Buttering

By Materials & Welding

 

Please see UW 42 of ASME Section VIII Div 1.  A butt welding procedure is enough for buttering.

 

UW-42 SURFACE WELD METAL BUILDUP
Construction in which deposits of weld metal are applied to the surface of base metal for the purpose of:
(a) restoring the thickness of the base metal for strength consideration; or
(b) modifying the configuration of weld joints in order to provide the tapered transition requirements of UW-9(c)
and UW-33(b) shall be performed in accordance with the following rules:
(1) A butt welding procedure qualification in accordance with provisions of Section IX must be performed for
the thickness of weld metal deposited, prior to production welding.
(2) All weld metal buildup must be examined over the full surface of the deposit by either magnetic particle
examination to the requirements of Appendix 6, or by liquid penetrant examination to the requirements of Appendix 8.
When such surface weld metal buildup is used in welded joints which require full or spot radiographic examination,
the weld metal buildup shall be included in the examination.

 

Reference Appendix 6 Section VIII Div 1

Subject: [MW:24361] Flange Buttering

 

Dear All,

 

   In my project Slip on flange to Pipe We have 7 mm gap .. Pipe have ovality 

 

Now my client saying to us to do buttering at flange at machining 

 

If we do buttering at flange its allowed in the code book 

 

Please guide me

 

Best regards

Sankar.k

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...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

By Materials & Welding
Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
