I find the requirement of maximum interpass temperature at 100 Deg.C. from Avesta 2507/P100 for TIG welding.
Due to the previous thread has been closed. Therefore, I create new thread and hope to see your...
In the manufacturing of a reducer per ASTM A403 Gr.WP 321 Cl. WX (100%RT).
A manufacturer welded with control of maximum interpass temperature at 200 Deg.C. In my welding knowledge, this is too high for maximum interpass temperature and crack resistibility deteriorates with high interpass...
Refer to ASME II SFA 5.32, minimum argon purity is 99.997%.
- What are the quality impacts in case of use lower purity (99.9% or 99.95%)?
- Please advise me about some technical references for the subject.
Thanks in advance...

In my understanding, the markings on each length of pipe shall
include the plate material designations. This is a requirement of ASTM A 358.
If the actual marking shows only heat number without plate material designation , can we accept this pipe material?
Is this the normal practice in steel...

In the GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) fire water piping system for seawater service, GRP pipe manufacturer recommended to install automatic air release valve at each high pipe in the system. I understand that Ni-Al bronze is suitable body material for seawater application. However, I'm in doubt...
I have read API STD 521 (5th edition). There is only one paragraph indicated about high pressure air for prevent smoke prevention.
After consult the flare vendor, almost all famous flare vendors commented that I can not meet Ringleman 1 for this design.
I realized that this approach is less...
The existing system uses stainless steel type 321. We recently found the crack at pipe base metal. The line is rich glycol service connecting from the glycol contactor (design condition 117 barg @ 105oC, operating condition 109.3 barg @ 49oC).
I tried to search the related thread and found only...
I understand that ASME Code Case 2235 allows for use TOFD (UT) instead of RT for the thickness of 1/2" and over.
How about sensitivity and accuracy for the lower thickness (less than 1/2"). If we use for inspection pipe thickness less than 1/2", what should be the major concerns? Please advise me.

Do we have limit of lean concrete thickness underside foundations? Please advise me.
Some project specification indicates minimum 75 mm thick lean concrete. What should be the maximum thickness?
Refer to NACE MR0175, acceptable bolt material for H2S service is A193-B7M.
In case of high temperature, A193-B16 should be better for strength concern. However, A193-B16 is not indicated in NACE MR0175.
Which is suitable material for high temperature and H2S service? Please comment.
My contractor and consultant propose to use operating temperature for nozzle load check and spring hanger selection. They refer to ASME B31.3 (App.S Para S301.5).
However, I disagree with them due to the design temperature is not for short term consideration. In my limited experience, the...
The contractor advise me that ready mixed concrete must be used for bored pile work.

Please advise me about the ASTM equivalent material of China Standard (GB 6654 16MnR).
I used to think that the steel is equivalent to ASTM A516 Gr. 70. However, after comparison of the yield strength value, it seems that 16MnR has higher yield strength than A516-70.
In general, our existing plant installs control valve with by-pass. There is also a drain valve upstream the control valve location.
However, our consultant indicate drain valve location at downstream of the control valve for our new project. Is this the general design practice? Any comment or...
