[ayaan5739]

Hello all,
dears i want to know if i have a wps qualified on 2" shall i used this wps on 1/2" pipe?
if yes/no please give the reference/clause of codes.

All of the other (essential & non-essential) variables have to be checked. If the 2" is welded with MMA, I'd like to see that on a 1/2". Drawing of the weld prep, filler material dimensions, welding parameters, ... That's why there are welding professionals. The most important question hasn't even been asked (regarding WPQ), I suppose OP has that covered already...

Turns out I've been working in accordance with Code all along without knowing it

@ IM,
It would be hard not to
There are some good things in there, like the guidelines for 1109 rods (you don't find these online!), and how to distinguish SS from aluminium...

 

@ IM, my pleasure. The document could use an update, I'm sure if we all combine our experiences we'd have a 2020 draft by next week...

Thanks... continuous improvement is my mantra!
