Re: [MW:27496] Impact Test for Procedure Qualification

Hi 

Even though the design code is ASME B31.3, PQR shall be qualified as per Sec IX. 

Pl refer ASME B31.3, Chapter 5 fully  , especially 328.2. 

Acceptance levels will vary based on your fluid service levels, but qualification shall be as per ASME Sec IX only.

​

Thanks and Regards,

The design Code (B31.3 in this case   takes precedence over Section IX, when there is  a difference.

Hi Jibin & All

This is my first Entry to this Group... if any mistakes correct me.. Thanks

As a first step, refer Table QW-451.1 in ASME Sec IX for PQR thickness limits. 

Based on some Essential / supplementary variables this Minimum or Maximum thickness will vary from this table.

For example, refer QW-256 -GTAW welding variable table. u can see QW403.6 , QW 407.4  i.e T limits row and study relevant QW clause which is self explanatory

Your case

Q1) What will be the thickness range qualified is it 10.97 to 16.97 or 5 mm to 16.97 or 5 mm to 21.94.

Since your PQR have impact requirement i.e supplementary variable requirements , Your PQR thickness range qualified is 10.97 to 21.94

Q2) If i need to qualify a WPS with Thk ranges 5 mm to 25mm which thickness need to be selected .

Qualify one PQR (1) with 6 mm thick, this will qualify 3 to 12 mm thk

Qualify other PQR (2) with 12 mm thick , this will qualify 12 to 24 mm thk 

Qualify other PQR (3) with 25 mm thick, thick will qualify 16 to 50 mm thk

So you will have WPS combining all PQRs with 3 to 50 mm which almost covers all your Fabrication requirement for CS pipes.

Hope this helps you...

Dear All , 

Spec - ASME B31.3 (Ed : 2016)  & Sec IX (Ed : 2017) ,

For PQR-A106 GR B -  i have taken 6" pipe Thk - 10.97mm - with impact test

Q1) What will be the thickness range qualified is it 10.97 to 16.97 or 5 mm to 16.97 or 5 mm to 21.94.

 

10.97 to 16.97 

Q2) If i need to qualify a WPS with Thk ranges 5 mm to 25mm which thickness need to be selected .

you need to have multiple test coupons
