Hi, colleagues,
May I qualify a WPS according to AWS D1.1 for the following joint: [butt joint 1/2V bevel, T1=10mm, T2=30mm CVN required] through a test piece composed of plates of dissimilar thicknesses (the same thicknesses as the production joint above)?
or should I conduct the elaboration...
Dear @DekDee, you were certainly not rude. you were correct.
I'm not actually building either the boiler or its power piping.
I am a professor of industrial quality and in preparing myself for these standards, I did not find in the content of them the determination of when to do the formal...
Due to my little knowledge and also based on the need to use ASME I and ASME B 31.1 for the construction of a boiler and its power piping, in which items of these codes are defined the correct time to apply the non-destructive tests. In other words, before or after post weld heat treatment?
hello, r6155 and everyone
Thanks for your orientation. I got it.
maybe my lack of conviction in adopting this chapter would be linked to the understanding of heating coils like jackets. I mean: in my little knowledge, I would think if there would be some code case, interpretation or another...
Hello colleagues,
Considering the need to design an external heating coil in a pressure vessel as shown in the attached image, and taking into account the practical possibility of using a rectangular section as shown in the same image, I have the following doubt:
how to obtain the allowed...
Hello, colleagues
Due to an accident during the transport of a pressure vessel, a nozzle was impacted which resulted in the bending of the tube located between the flange and the shell of this vessel.
Does the ASME code allow the alignment of this nozzle to be restored through the use of heat...
hello colleagues,
I am used to making thickness calculations according to codes like ASME VIII div 1 for pressure vessels, and now I have the challenge of evaluating if a new valve body design meets the thickness requirements defined by the ASME B16.34 standard.
I am correct in affirming that...
Dear colleagues,
I hope this message finds all you well
Project: ASME VIII- Pressure vessel - material ASME SA517 Gr B. Thickness 9,5 mm.
I have to qualify a WPS for welding ASME SA517 - B with impact requirements at -40 C,
Also is required PWHT, and my first results of impact test @-40C...
