Hi,
Currently one of my clients is having an ambiguity in applying the requirements of ASME Section 09 Clause QW 200.4: Combination of Welding Procedures, Subclause: a & b requirements. Hence, support is required in finding an interpretation from ASME Section 09. (Interpretation in CS connect is not apparent for this clause)
Background: Two PQRs were qualified separately, PQR A is qualified with SAW process using 8 mm thickness plate and PQR B is qualified with SMAW process using 8 mm thickness plate.
Question: While combining the two PQRs to weld a plate with thickness(es) ranging from 1.5 mm to 16 mm.
Do as per QW 200.4, it is necessary to have the root pass process PQR need to be qualified on a minimum 13 mm thickness plate?
I'm pretty sure it is not required to have a root pass process PQR with minimum 13 mm thickness in the above case. However, it would be helpful if you found any interpretation on this.
