Dear all,

If the procedure is qualified on E7018 Electrode for SA 516 Gr 70 then can we use this WPS/PQR for welding IS2062 Gr B by E6013 electrode. Also for welder qualification can we use this WPS/PQR , Give code reference

I think change in filler metal class is essential variable.

Pankaj Kolhe,

If you followed the ASME code,the IS2062 need to be requalified in spite that IS 2062 is nearer to ASTM A 36 . In another word, material IS 2062 can not be categorized into the same P No. as SA 516 Gr 70.
However,the E7018 has the same F No. as the E6018,,i.e. E6018 can be used without requalification.

hope this helps.

Regards,
Devin.

Dear Mr. Pankaj Kolhe,

If you are using ASME SEC IX 2010 then you can not use.
For SMAW Process F number is Essential Variable for welding procedure
qualification and F Number of E6013 is 2 and F number of E7018 is 4.

And for welder qualification F number also essential variable. So you
can not use different F number.

Dear Sir,
 
 As per ASME 2011 Addenda Edt., IS 2062 Material as add so its comes under P No 1 & G no 1. WPS & PQR can be used with the same G.No & P No, for your references find the attached page.

Remember that E-7018 is F4 and  6013 is F3, In procedure is essencial variable.But in performance welder there is not problem

Dearr sir,

But my question is

I have a qualified WPS/PQR for P1 G1 with E7018 Electrode and another welder is qualified with same electrode.

Now can another welder qualified with E7018 can weld IS 2062 with E6013 electrode?

Can I offer this WPS/PQR of E7018 to TPI for this E6013 welding.

Pankaj

WPS may not be used as indicated.

Per QW-253, F-no is an essential variable for SMAW procedure qualification, i.e. QW-404.4 applies.  E7018 is F4 while E6013 is an F2.  Therefore a PQR using an F4 electrode cannot support a WPS using an F2 electrode or vice versa.

As long as impacts are not required, base metal would not be an issue since 2011a Section IX QW/QB-422 recognizes  SA/IS 2062 E250 B as a P-No. 1, G-No. 1 material.  If impact testing was required the

With respect to weldor performance qualification. {Assuming you had a properly qualified WPS for F2, F3, or F4 electrodes.}  The weldor could use either F2, F3, or F4 electrodes and be qualified for welding with F2 electrodes per QW-433.

Mr Biplab Pal,

Your last statement regarding welder qualification is incorrect. Please
look at QW-433 "Alternate F-Numbers for Welder Performance
Qualification", which specifically addresses SMAW.

Qualification with F4 will additionally qualify the weldor for F3, F2,
and F1.
Qualification with F3 will additionally qualify the weldor for F2, and
F1
Qualification with F2 will additionally qualify the weldor for F1

Dear Mr, John,

I agree, i was incorrect about welder qualification.
actually i was confused with f-6..
thanks
yes welder can weld.

Mr. John,
 
As I understand, qulaification with F4 will qualify F3, F2 and F1 with backing only, not without backing. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Per QW-433

 

A weldor who successfully completes weld testing with F4 electrodes and backing is qualified to weld, with backing F4, F3, F2, and F1.

 

A weldor  who successfully completes weld testing with F4 electrodes without backing is qualified to weld F4 with or without backing, and F3, F2 and F1 with backing.

 

Practically, I would not allow welding with F4, F3, or F2 without backing (open root, full penetration) in any case.  Nearly all weldors will make a hash of production welds without backing with electrodes of these classes.

Dear Mr. Henning,
 
Root pass can be considered as backing for fill passes?
A welder qualified to F4 can make fill pass with F3, F2 or F1, without furter qualification?
 
Thanks an regards

Yes.  If qualified with F4, the weldor is qualified to make fill passes with F4, F3, F2 or F1 electrodes.

 

In our shop, typically, open root welds will be made with a GTAW root pass (sometimes GMAW) and fill passes made with another process;  in the case presently being considered, SMAW.  The weldor would be qualified without backing, with F6 filler metal for the GTAW.  For the fill passes the weldor would be qualified with backing (usually back gouging & back welding the root) and F4.

 

Some may qualify for open root with F3 electrodes (e.g., E6010, E6011)  for the root pass and fill with F4, similar to the above.

 

Section IX considers welding with backing as either:  (1) welding with a physical backing strip placed at the root of the weld or (2) back gouging the root to sound metal and then welding the backside.

As welder is qualified in E7018 (F No.4 with backing), he is qualified for F No. 1, 2, 3, 4 with backing.
Refer QW-433 for detail.

The welder is qualified for E6013 as its F No. is 2
