[Kwangju Moon]

Dear experts,

Please clarify below questions.

Back Ground:

-       Applicable construction code: ASME Sec. VIII, Div.1

-       Material : SA516-70N (35mm)

-       Equipment’s MDMT: -20℃

-       The client request that impact testing shall comply with the code of construction and in accordance with PED 97/23/EC Annex 1, Para 7.5.

 

Question 1):

Shall we have to perform the impact test on this material in accordance with PED requirement even impact test is exempted as per UCS-66, ASME Sec. VIII Div.1?

 

Question 2):

When the impact test is required as per PED, should we have to use WPS with applying all supplementary essential requirements for weld joint?
