Re: [MW:30008] Requirement of double Normalizing of SA-516 Gr.70

Hi

We had faced this concern couple of times in our previous projects. Yes base material will lose strength when u apply such heat treatments. Best solution for this is to order plate directly from mill with end finish requirements (such as double normalising + SPWHT, if any). 
If u aren't able to approach mills check for available plates having tensile on the higher side, test it with simulation of double normalising. If the results satisfactory then you may utilise the plates for forming. 

Client requirements overrule the code requirements hence you have to comply and cannot take relaxation on it based on code.

If the dished end manufacture wants to perform intermediate normalising then it cannot be considered as normalising after forming. Hence client requirement of normalising after forming requires to be performed separately. 

If the dished end has long seam then ensure your PQR is qualified with double normalising or single normalising with aggregate time for both cycles (check specs of client if it is accepted, sometime client will specify that it has to be performed separately). 

During double normalising weld will lose its strength exorbitantly, hence to achieve required minimum strength you have to utilise consumables with higher strength. 
Consult consumable suppliers they will be able to assist you with right consumables. 

Hope you are clear now.

Hi!
With multiple normalising.UTS gets deteoriates
Accordingly  ddelivery condition.of.plate.you req UTS on higher side than min requirement
Ii) Generaly for highet.thick weld.seam multiple Normalising.ll.reduce UTS as such Normalising criteria.is not.addressed in.Sec IX.or.Div 1 of ASME

In our recent project i encounter one problem.

Material Grade : SA-516 Gr.70 Supply condition : Normalized
Dished end : Ellipsodial
Thickness : 45 mm
Forming process : Cold forming
Dished end have one cordal seam
Impact required at : -46 deg. C
so during cold forming vendor need one intermediate normalizing. and as per client requirement one more normalizing performed after complete dished end forming. So, total 2 time normalizing have to perform.

So, my question is ; 
(1) During plate order i have to take 2 normalizing cycle simulation ? Yes Or No? With Reason
(2) May I take benefit of Clause UCS-85 (i) of ASME sec-8 Div.1?
(3) Is same clause applicable for welding?
(4) And If i will perform double normalizing then I have to simply double the normalizing time or 2 separate normalizing i have to perform?
(5) What will be effect on weld and base material after 2 time Normalizing?
(6) if any one encountered such issues . please help to solve

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

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...
