Chemical analysis is not mandatory in PQR unless it is mentioned in WPS before PQR Qualification. Whatever the elements mentioned in WPS, it should be done in PQR. Ref QW 216.

Hard facing overlay welding
4 to 5mm welded and machined to 1.6mm. Found hardness and macro examination cleared
QW-216.4. It defines that chemical analysis nominally matching the weld deposit chemical analysis may be substituted to qualify the PQR. Can anyone explain this meaning?
Recently I have qualified hard facing weld overlay. In that during chemical analysis I have got C, Si, Mn, P, S, Cr, Mo, Ni, W, Fe and CO chemical elements. So actual attained chemical composition I have mentioned in PQR. During WPS preparation I have mentioned only nominal chemical elements i.e., Co, Cr, W, C only as explained in the QW-216.4.
But my TPI agency is opposing my prepared WPS. That they are telling to put all the elements in WPS. I have argued them that this is the nominal chemical elements important for hard facing. However I have tested in 1.6mm after weld to the machined surface. So Fe comes to 5 to 10%. However I have cleared the Macro and hardness examination.
Also I have previous done the same paremeter and same has been accepted by same TPI. This same also shown but they are rejecting this was signed on 2016 and based on client request only we accepted this.
Note: I have explained them this elements Cr,Co & W -All are very important in HF overlay welding. Cr- Increase the Corrosion resistance.Carbide formation of Cr,Co & W - It will increase the hardness value and wear resistance.
But although they are rejecting my request. Please clarify
