Re: [MW:31339] Re: Impact test requirements for LAS

As per  ASME B 31.3, LAS are exempted for impact test till -29 deg c  irrespective of thickness.

Well said... Exactly.. Coarse grained steel does not required Imoact test requirements unless until service is different than normal... Cryogenic and all

Dear Kiran,

 

It is rare that a low Cr-Mo alloy steel such as Group P5B is required to have an impact test at -29 C in its weld.

These steels are resistant to high temperatures of approximately 470 C to 650 C. So for what impact test? Structurally, for high temperature service a steel with a coarse grain size ASTM 4-5 (creep and oxidation resistant) is needed; and for low temperatures, tough steels with fine grain structure ASTM 8-9 are needed, which are suitable for cold service> -29 C to -45C.

 

The steels grouped in P5B are coarse-grained.

 

ASME B31.3 does not call for impact test at this temperature -29C. First of all, Kiran you must check the service temperature range of this pipe and its welding. What is approved in the Customer's specifications? I think your Customer  is wrong. Talk to him.

Dear Experts,

 

Please I need your answer to my above query. 

 

My client has mentioned the above 25 mm Impact test would be required, in accordance with B31.3.

 

Question: Are materials, for which a temperature of −20°F (−29°C) is listed in the Minimum Temperature column of

Table A-1, exempt from impact testing for any combination of thickness and temperature above −20°F (−29°C)? Reply: Yes.

The minimum temperature in our scope is not below minus 29°C. If B31.3 calls for impact test within this temperature.

 

Your feedback is very important to me.

Hi Experts,

 

"Good Morning"

 

My query has below.

 

Help me to prepare pWPS.

Process : GTAW +SMAW

Material : P.No - 5B   

ASTM A335 Grade P9.
Pipe Size - 16" Sch-60.
Thickness: 16.66 mm
Thickness range: 5mm to 33.32 mm
According to ASME B31.3 Table 323.3.1 shall I required an Impact for the above-mentioned thickness and material.
As per my knowledge, the above 25 mm impact test would be required. 
How I can find according to line class where impact test required or not.
If a minus 29° C impact test not required for LAS. 

When we shall consider the impact test exemption. 

 

And regarding consumable for P No- 5A 

ASTM A335 Grade P22

 

if I use ER90S-B3 ok or shall I use ER80S-B3 because my client suggest me to use ER80S-B3 please clarify way?

 

Thanks in advance 

 

Regards

Kiran

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...
