Welder qualification ASME IX

[metaleng123]

I currently use a welder qualification for S355J2H, BW, thickness 25mm (1"),Ø 298,5, SMAW.Can i use this qualification for a FW, Ø60, thickness of 10mm and the same material quality? If i understand correctly from ASME IX Table QW-452.6 regarding Filler Qualification by Groove-Weld Tests all fillet sizes, material thickness and diameters of a FW can be qualified using a butt weld.If i'm missing something please let me know.

It depends. On a lot of things you have mentioned. Start by detailing the design code and application first.

With all due respect, you havent understood the real issue/problem here.
As long as you cant provide more details, your question is unanswered, regardless of Mohamed's response.
