As you said ,Test coupon is 50mm thick with GTAW 25mm and SMAW 25mm welding. Generally GTAW is used for root and hot pass, not for 25 mm. If you do 25 mm GTAW WELDING, your production rate as well as welding cost will be more. Follow ASME Sec IX QW-451.1, It will be helpful for you On Sun, Mar 31, 2019 at 7:56 PM George Dilintas < dilintas@gmail.com > wrote: you are confusing the base metal thickness range and the deposited thickness range.
