Re: [MW:29985] Re: Difference between Control thickness & nominal material thickness ( Para. 331.1.3(c)

Nominal material Thickness as  Example--- Pressure pipe is supported by another pipe( non pressure part) is being welded, Pressure part pipe thickness is 20mm whereas non pressure part thickness is 10mm,  In this case Nominal material thickness is 20mm. This is my understanding

Hello all,
Here in the particular case the controlled thickness at weld shall be 6 mm.
Now as per table 331.1.3, for P.No-1 , for all control thickness , PWHT is exempted only if preheat of 95 deg c is applied on nominal material thickness > 25 mm. Here nominal material thickness is defined as thicker of the materials being joined.

So in this case, preheat shall require before welding.

thanks & regards

Not only control thickness.

Control thickness is the thickness of weld and Nominal material thickness is the thickness of material

PWHT Requirement is based on control thickness (Table 331.1.3)

Preheat requirement is based on nominal material thickness

Hope you understand

Dear Experts, 
Could you please advise me for following question: 
Which thickness , Control thickness or Nominal material thicness as defined in Para. 331.1.3(c), shall be used to determine whether PWHT required or not in case preheat of 95 Deg C is NOT applied ? ( P-No. 1)

For case below, in accordance with ASME B31.3 2016 Ed , PWHT is required or not when preheat of 95 Deg C is NOT applied ?

Thanks in advance.

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...

The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams for predicting ferrite levels in austenitic stainless steel welds

Introduction Ferrite is important in avoiding hot cracking in during cooling from welding of austenitic stainless steels. 'Constitution diagrams' are used to predict ferrite levels from the composition by comparing the effects of austenite and ferrite stabilising elements. The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams are the original methods of predicting the phase balances in austenitic stainless steel welds. Nickel and chromium equivalents A 'nickel equivalent' is calculated for the austenite stabilising elements and a 'chromium equivalent' ferrite stabilising elements. These are used as the axes for the diagrams, which show the compositional equivalent areas where the phases austenite, ferrite, martensite (and mixtures of these) should be present. Although intended to show the phase balance of weld fillers, these diagrams can also be used to illustrate the phase balance of the 'parent' material. There are different diagrams for dif...
