Re: [MW:25638] Base metal qualification range of unlisted material as per AWS D1.1

Dear Shaik, Please note that S355J2 or JR Materials are unassigned materials without P nos, so you have to qualify with the actual base material in this case. However you can approach the clients by saying that the yield strength is same and the consumables used also will be same, in that case may be they will accept.

Re: [MW:25633] Hardness for vessel after PWHT

Dear All, Many thanks for your valuable feed backs. Also regret for the late response. Regarding the above, there was a mis-understanding that is in fact HAZ & base metal hardness was restricted to 225 HB while weld metal was at 236 HB. since one party raised this assuming 225 HB is applicable for all. Anyhow, all are within limit and hence OK. The testing was done with portable machine (MIC 10). I have one more query, when & where Brinell & vickers applicable specifically. Thanks in advance, Kumar.

Re: [MW:25632] WPS - In service welding

Dear Waqas السلام عليكم ورحمة الله Please advise us about the following 1. We are preparing a new WPS for in-service welding. 2. Our scope is mechanical sleeve type b pipeline repair. 3. The pipeline operation condition has several flow rates. do we need to make individual WPS for each flow rate, or one WPS could be applicable for all the flow rates?

Re: [MW:25631] Re: Open Root Pipe Welding / Groove Welding with FCAW Process

FCAW not recommended as it is high heat input process . The toughness of the root is affected  . The most important is to control the heat input at root as it is the most important run in the weld . That why GTAW is mostly recommended and it's a clean process . STT Lincoln or RMD miller is ideal as the current characteristic is well controlled and therefore the heat input . So to be on safer avoid FCAW for X-ray quality weld . On 30 Oct 2016 4:54 p.m., "'c sridhar' via Materials & Welding" < materials-welding@googlegroups.com > wrote: 1.

Re: [MW:25628] Hardness for vessel after PWHT

Hi! You can control Hardness  for higher thickness weld by increasing the preheat temperature to through thk  and also some time by increasing Soaking time  of PWHT (As NACE application PWHT is mandatory) Regards Hegde On Sunday, 30 October 2016 9:22 AM, Perumal Govindan <perumalgovindan@gmail.com> wrote: Hi Please provide your hardness report for review to clarify.

Dear sir, As per API 650, above 12mm E7018 has to be use. Means up to 12mm E6013 has to use. I have only query to ask that, why e6013 not allow to use above 12mm.
