    PQR P4 to P8 questions?

    The application this will be used for in the field is a steam line with a design temp of 869F and design pressure of 769 psig. The weld's are open butt on 1/2" diameter SA-335 P-11 to SA-312(316)both having a wall thickness of 0.147" The engineering spec requires that max hardness not exceed...
