Re: [MW:33290] WPS THICKNESS QUALIFICATION AD PER SEC IX

kindly note that  QW-452 -is applicable only for Perfromance qualification , for procedure qualifcation thickness limits one has to follow QW-451 . hope this clarifys.

Thanks

Dear  Ganesh, 
your undestanding was correct , go ahead.
 kindly ignore mail from Mr. V.Kingsly Geo. BCZ it is applicable for perfromace qualification.

Thanks

Dear Ganesh,

Job PQR thickness - 25.4mm                                 
Process - GTAW (4mm)+ SMAW(21.4)

as per ASME sec IX, Qualifications range for GTAW 4mm --- min - 5mm, max- that is <19mm, 2t =8mm      ----------------  GTAW - MAX  2t - 8 MM

Qualifications range for SMAW 21.4mm -- min-5mm, max- that is >19mm, 2T=2(25.4)=50.8mm                   ----------------  SMAW - Unlimited Thickness if PQR has been done with 3 layers of welding.

So..
The total thickness welded is 25.4(4+21.4)mm
Total thickness qualified is -=8+50.8=58.8mm                                                                                                ---------------   GTAW - 8 MM MAX  & SMAW  Unlimited thickness

Gent's

Can any one explain with example of thickness qualifications - procedure.

Especially for combination of process with 19mm to 38mm thickness job welded. 
Explain me each and every step. 

Here I explain what I am understand that code. Weather it's wrong please explain.

Example. 

Job PQR thickness - 25.4mm
Process - GTAW (4mm)+ SMAW(21.4)

as per ASME sec IX, Qualifications range for GTAW 4mm --- min - 5mm, max- that is <19mm, 2t =8mm

Qualifications range for SMAW 21.4mm -- min-5mm, max- that is >19mm, 2T=2(25.4)=50.8mm

So..
The total thickness welded is 25.4(4+21.4)mm
Total thickness qualified is -=8+50.8=58.8mm


Is that correct or not.
If it wrong kindly give me a brief lesson to me.

Thank you
Ganesh

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...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
