Up Topic Welding Industry / ASME Codes / WPS for ASME PQR
- - By Newguy22 (*) Date 01-03-2020 14:29
Hello All

I need to do a PQR / WPS with ASME section IX. I would like to have a WPS for  GTAW and a WPS for GMAW spray. Both WPS with backing bar. No impacts, P1 to P1.

If I did a PQR with 1/2" thick  plate with backing. Welded 1/4" thick with GTAW & 1/4" with GMAW. I would have a thickness range for base metal (T) of 3/16" to 1".

Filler metal is 2 x t.

Could I write 2 separate WPS with:
1)  WPS with GTAW with backing, 3/16" to 1/2" thick base material. no impacts.
2) Another  separate WPS with GMAW with backing, 3/16" to 1/2" thick base material. no impacts.

Thanks for your time.

Yes.

Your bends would have to include weld deposit from both processes.
