    Requirement for PWHT

    Thank you The design standard is API5L (Pipe line) You know API5L has not the same approach as ASME codes The API5L require PWHT for high frequency electric welding process. But for the others refer to the manufacturer decision. Now it is very important to get other reference or sientific...

    When does a welder become a WELDER

    Return back to the mane question. For pressure equipment welding, each welder should be qualified by test according to a referenced Code/Standard. But pay attention that this qualification is not a general qualification. It shall cover the welding variables of the production welding. Adding to...

    Post Weld Heat Treatment

    Thank you All, I agree that some codes specifiy the requirement for PWHT, but some standards or codes do not specify clearly ex. AWS D1.1 or API 5L or AWWA C200... I look for some thing to help the engineer to decide for PWHT when not clearly specified in the codes or standards. Best Regards

    Requirement for PWHT

    Dear All, Does the API1104 or the API 5L requires a post weld heat treatment after welding API 5L X70 pipes ? If no, technically is it necessary to PWHT a pipe API 5L X70 having 18mm thickness? Thank you
