6. This has major effects on economics and distortion control etc
The root face, root gap and angle of bevel values, the choice of
single, or double sided preparations, are dictated only by the type
of welding process, the position and accessibility of the joint*
The basic rule is this:
The more you take out, then the more you must put back in*
Remember, the purposes of a weld preparation is to allow access
for the welding process, penetration and fusion through the area
of the joint and its faces*

Ductility:* The ability to deform plastically under tension*
Mechanical:* Describes the actions of “force & motion”
Properties:* Something that makes one material useful for a
job. These include the properties of:
The ability of a material to resist indentation

43. We test welds to establish minimum levels of mechanical
properties, and soundness of the welded joint*
We divide tests into Quantitative & Qualitativemethods:*
1) Quantitative tests:(Have units)*
2) Qualitative tests: (Have no units)*

44. Types of tests include:
1)Quantitative tests:

47. Generally we use a diamond or steel ball to form an indentation
We measure the width of the indentation to gauge the hardness*

48. 1)Vickers Diamond Pyramid:Always uses a diamond*
2)Brinell hardness test:Always uses a steel ball*
3)Rockwell hardness test:Uses a ball, or diamond

61. We test welds to establish minimum levels of mechanical
properties, and soundness of the welded joint
We divide tests into Qualitative & Quantitativemethods:*
Qualitative: (Have no units)

Toughness (Joules & ft.lbs)

62. The main difference between Macro & Microis that Micro is
the study of the micro-structure at much higher magnification
The limit of Macro inspection ismagnification < X 10
The specimen is usually cut from a stop/start in the test piece
The cut specimen is polished to a fine finish (400 grit)
The specimen must be inspected, before etching*

63. Remember! The process of inspection is to first:
Observe, then Report, then Compare!*
Use the TWI macro sheets provided to observe and then
make a report on a separate sheet of what you observe*
When you have finished reporting, turn the macro sheet
over and compare your observations with those given on
the back of the sheet* (1 hour)

64. A definition of the term “Procedure”?*
A systematic method of producing an aim*
Therefore, a “Weldingprocedure” is?*
A systematic method of producing a sound weld*

65. • Most procedures are approved, but not all?
An approved welding procedure is one that has been tested to
ensure that the procedure as carried out, produces a weld that
satisfies a minimum level of quality for the mechanical, physical
or chemical properties desired. If these are not required, then
“procedural approval is unnecessary”*
• Do all welding procedures need to be approved?*
• Most production welding procedure are formatted on written
documents or computer spreadsheets, but they need not be written
and may be a product of experience
• Do all welding procedures need to be written?*
What do “you” think about the following statements?*

66. A Welding Procedure is a recipe of variable parameters, which
will produce the same results of certain quality & properties if
carried out in the same way each time*
To evaluate a Provisional Welding Procedure we need to
check if all the parameters set will work together to produce
the desired results*
.*

67. Once the weld has been completed it is usually visually
inspected, then Radiography orUltrasonic testing is usually
applied*
If all the desired properties have been met, then a procedure
qualification record (WPQR orWPAR) is completed with all
the test results, and the procedure then becomes qualified*
Finally, and most importantly, Mechanically testedto ensure
that the desired level of mechanical properties have been met*
A CSWIP 3.2 Senior Welding Inspector is normally responsible for the
testing and approval of welding procedures*
From this data, a workable document for production welding is
prepared and called a Welding Procedure Specification. (WPS)*

68. a)Diameter of pipe, or thickness of plate
b)Welding position, amperage range, or number of runs
c)Process (On multi process procedures only)
d)Certain material groups
e)Change of consumable to one of the same classification
Only if the class is given in the original procedure
f)Heat input range (kJ/mm)*
Examples of “Extents of Approval” include:*

69. Once the procedure has been approved it is then important to
test each welder, to ensure that he has the skillto reach the
minimum level of quality in the weld,as laid down in the
application standard*
There is no need to carry out the mechanical tests of the
procedure, although bend tests are often used to ensure good
side wall fusion
Normally; visual, x ray, bends, fractures and macro’s are used
in welder approval tests*
