Re: [MW:30221] A335P11 material - Delayed PWHT condition

U can. Since it is bainatic structure, hardness level may not be as high as in Martensite structure. Why do you want delay in doing PWHT, if NDE is delayed, it is a reasonable one after PWHT because of delayed crack

Dear Experts,

For one of our project, 

With reference to the sketch shown below, we are going to weld 4 number of Single V Butt joints for A335P11 to itself ( P No. 4 ), pipe Thk of max 28.6 mm by using GTAW & FCAW process ,

Preheat Tempr. of Min. 120 Deg C ( Plan to use Burner ) and PWHT from 650 to 707 Deg C as per ASME B31.3 code.

After we complete the welding in our shop and bring back to the normal ambient tempr. around 15 Deg C, can we do PWHT after 1 or 2 days gap and then we do RT and PT ?

I worry that, during winter in Korea, the ambient tempr. may drop to Minus 10 Deg C.

As there is no weld spec from client for P No.4 , can we do PWHT after 2 days gap.

Please suggest me with any weld instructions for P. No.4 , Preheat maintenance, in order to avoid any crack after welding and with delayed PWHT condition.

With best regards,

Saravanan.Sornam,

Korea
