Hi Daniel,
Several questions:
1. Your photo shows 4 coupons, not just 1 coupon. Please explain.
2. What were the welding preheat and interpass temperatures?
3. If the test coupon is only 1-1/2-inches thick, why was the PWHT soak time 4 hours?
4. Since the PWHT soak time was 1150 oF, the coupon must have been an ASME P-No. 1 carbon steel. What is the coupon's ASTM classification (e. g. SA-516-70)?
5. The bend in the coupon implies uneven cooling, top to bottom.
6. What were the maximum heating and cooling rates during PWHT?
7. Did the coupon undergo PWHT in a furnace for equal heating and cooling on both sides?
8. Or were electric resistance heaters employed?
Regards,
Dennis Thompson

Dear Experts,
We had qualification with GTAW and SMAW (manual process) on 1.5" thick test coupon . to prepare build up welding procedure . our test coupon got Post weld heat treatment at 1150°F for 4 hours ( without solution annealing ) .
Test got failed at the first step for side bend ( see attached picture ).
I`m looking for a reason or reasons of this failure .
Do you think the reason should came from , not perform solution annealing on the test coupon ? or something else should be reason !
Cheers,
DW
