Dear Expert,
 
Kindly advise on following;
 
Suppose I have a vessel with MDMT minus 48deg C, we have support plate (SP1) (inside the vessel) welded with vessels, on which I am going to weld another support plate (Sp2),
 
My question is whether this (SP1 & SP2) required to have impact tested to minus 46deg C or only SP1?
 
Similarly would saddle supports of this vessel require matl with impact testing.
 
Thank you in advance..

dear aly,

what absorb from ur mail is u mean to say WPS to be impact tested
correct.Then non pressure welding does not requre impact tested.u can
use WPS without having a impact tested.

Dear Mr. Ali,

I like to share my views on this subject and let's concentrate discussions on ASME Section viii Div. 1.

As per UCS-66, any attachment which is essential for structural integrity of the vessels when welded to pressure retaining components shall be considered as separate component and to be checked for impact testing w.r.t to material specification, MDMT and thickness limits.

Pl note that structural integrity of the part has to be confirmed by designer.

Hi

Impact  test is required for materials such as shell, head, flanges and fittings, stiffener plate or any attachment, if welded to pressure retaining parts, whether internal or external, used for structural integrity, shall be impact tested.

In your case, if SP1 is used in design for structural integrity, then it requires to be impact tested at the same governing MDMT. Please check with your designer. But however, SP2 does not require impact test, since, it is not welded to pressure retaining part. (ref UCS.66)

Hi,

I would second Jignesh comments, BTW ASME Sec viii Div 1 does not explicitly discuss about
Impact testing of supports, Since these Skirts/supports are continuously welded to shell
becomes an integral part of vessel though still classified as "Non pressure Parts".

Both Material and welding procedure qualification shall be evaluated for MDMT of -46 deg c,
however if Design temperature was -29 deg C, you could get rid of impact testing (UG-20).

Suggest to use ASTM A516 Gr.70 as support material.

Regards
Manpreet Singh
