Impact tests on PQR (ASME B31.3)

[Fernando L Neto]

referring to impact tests for qualification of welding procedures, it is reasonable to define that for the design situation according to ASME B31.3, in circumferential joints welded by two processes (GTAW -root / SMAW - others), each process must be separately impact tested (in the same way as it is done today for ASME VIII div 1)?  

There is no text that makes this statement explicitly on B31.3.

Thanks and regards,

you can extract sample, 1.5mm from bottom that for root process and one from middle that from smaw.

so if u refer figure for impact it is quite clear.

however meaning is same u stated.
