(Note the procedure allows the SMAW to be used as a rot run but not the welder qualification.) When tested the deposited weld metal of each process must be included in the tension and bend test specimens and impacts where applicable. Note itis acceptable for the impact test for the GTAW to contain some SMAW in the test specimen.€ > @ Ai www.gowelding.com/wp/asme-multihtm toes SE HowWelgeuito of Petonlzarinks ) Windons ) Wandowe Meds (3 lnporado dolE C) Fabiation Welk.

A WPS. consisting of several processes can be created from different POR’s, but the maximum thickness of base metal covered by this WPS can't exceed 2 x the thickness of the thinnest test coupon used for each PQR and each process can't exceed 2 x its deposited thickness. This applies even if all the processes used for that coupon are not required in this WPS. However the base metal thickness of the POR used for the root does not have to be considered ifthe WPS is single sided QW200.4 b Note test coupons 38mm and above approve deposited weld metal and also base metal thickness up to 200mm max QW451.1.
