Dear Mr. John Henning,--The query I raised is not about buttering. Here the issue is the groove depth ie the thickness of the lifting lug is 40 mm and it is a full penetration groove which is welded on lifting lug pad plate. So PWHT for this groove is applicable or not as per UCS-56 Table General note 1.Thanks & Regards

What you have described is buttering of the pressure vessel to eliminate PWHT. The weld butter is not pressure retaining and is not counted in you Code Calcs as such. Therefore it is permissible to make the weld pad, PWHT, then weld the lifting lug to the butter pad. See QW-283 "Welds with Buttering" for qualification requirements. Not particularly arduous. This type of weld is done frequently, especially when welding ferritic materials to stainless steel. When I worked for a major steam turbine company, this was done frequently on pressure vessels to allow for welding in the field etc. without having to PWHT.
The Code paragraph you cited was for pressure retaining welds (principally long and circumferential seams in drums).
Enjoy – John

Hi Mohammed,
1. See the WPS you have used to weld the lifting lug. If it calls for PWHT, Please perform the same.
2. The code is saying all welds in the Pressure vessel or Pressure vessel part ( i.e) all welds includes pressure part/ no n pressure part / preesure pert to Nonpressure part.
However, If the weld doesn't fall under UCS 56 requirements, you need not do PWHT , if WPS doesn't calls for it.
3. The pressure vessel parts mentioned there refers to part of the vessel only being manufactured by you ( e.g) Dishes/ Quick Opening closure etc.
Thanks and Best Regards,
K.Rajagopal

Dear Mr. Prem,
Lifting lug pad is pressure part as per ASME Sec VIII ?. The groove of lifting lug will consider as pressure part ?. UCS 56 says pressure vessel and pressure vessel part shall be subject to PWHT. Still confusing.
Thanks & Regards

The nominal / governing thickness is more than 38mm i.e 40mm FPW.
As per UCS 56, PWHT will be required for the 40mm thick lifting lug weld joint.
You should have welded the lifting lug earlier and sent the equipment for PWHT !!

Gents,
I need to clarify one issue with PWHT of a lifting lug.
An ASME Sec VIII Div I vessel require PWHT. lifting lug pad welded with vessel and PWHT done. After PWHT a lifting lug will weld with the pad. The lifting lug having thickness of 40mm and having full penetration groove weld with pad. Is this lifting lug to pad welding required PWHT ?. Please find attached drawing detail for reference.
Your valuable advice will be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards
Muhammed Ibrahim PK
