TEST 2.1 Qualification Test Each welder shall be qualified for each welding process to be used in production welding, ‘The performance qualification test shall be performed in accordance with one of MHI’s qualified Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) and Plan for Performance Test. ‘A.welder qualified to weld in accordance with one qualified WPS is also qualified to weld in accordance with other qualified WPS's, limits of the essential variables of QW-350 in Section IX of the ASME Boiler and Pressure ‘Vessel Code. (Refer to attached sheet 9.1). ‘A welder is qualified only for the positions in accordance with Chapter 4. ing the same welding process, within the He shall be requalified whenever a change is made in one or more of the essentials variables listed in QW-350. ‘The limits of thickness for which he will be qualified are dependent upon the thickness of the weld he deposits with each welding process, in which this thickness shall be considered the test coupon thickness as given in QW-452. (Refer to attached sheet 9.3). ated at any stage of the testing procedure, whenever it ‘The performance test may be te becomes apparent to the supervisor conducting the tests that the welder does mot have the required skill to produce satisfactory results. (All welding inspection for performance qualification tests except for fillet welding as given in QW-141.3, shall be confirmed by using test pieces on radiographic inspection instead of the bend test, as given in QW-142).(Please refer to attached shect 9.9). 22 Identification of Welders Each qualified welder, and welding operator shall be assigned an identifying symbol by MHI.

The other two surfaces shall be called the face and root surfaces, the face surface having the greater width of weld. The specimen thickness and bend radius are shown in QW-466.1, QW-466.2 and QW-466.3. (Refer to attached sheets 9.7). 3.4.2 Transverse Side Bend ‘The weld is transverse to the longitudinal axis of the specimen, which is bent so that fone of the side surfaces becomes convex surface of the bent specimen. Transverse side-bend test specimens shall conform to the dimensions shown in QW-462.2. (Refer to attached sheet 9.5). Specimens of base metal thickness equal to or greater than 1 1/2 in. (38 mm) may be ccut into approximately equal strips between 3/4 in. (19 mm) and 1 1/2 in. (38 mm) ‘wide for testing, or the specimens may be bent at full width (refer to QW-466). If multiple specimens are used, one complete set shall be made for each required test. Each specimen shall be tested and meet the requirements in the following section 347. 343. Transverse Face Bend The weld is transverse to the longitudinal axis of the specimen, which is bent so that the face surface becomes the convex surface of the bent specimen.

When using the jigs illustrated QW-466.1 or QW-466.2, the side of the specimen tured toward the gap of the jig shall be the face for face-bend specimens, the root for root-bend specimens, and the side with the greater discontinuities, if any for side-bend specimens. The specimen shall be forced into the die by applying load con the plunger until the curvature of the specimen is such that a 1/8 in, mm) diameter wire cannot be inserted between the specimen and the die of QW-466.1 or the specimen is bottom ejected, if the roller type of jig (QW-466.2) is used. When using the wrap around jig (QW-466.3), the side of the specimen tumed toward the roller shall be the face for the face-bend specimens, the root for the root-bend, specimens, and the side with greater discontinuities, if any, for side-bend specimens. When specimens wider than 1 1/2 in, (38 mm) are to be bent as permitted in QW-462.2, the test jig mandrel must be at least 1/4 in, (6 mm) wider than the specimen width, 3.4.7 Acceptance Criteria for Bend Test ‘The weld and heat-affected zone of a transverse-weld bend specimen shall be completely within the bent portion of the specimen after testing ‘The guided-bend specimens shall have no open discontinuity in the weld or heat-affected zone exceeding 1/8 in. (3 mm), measured in any direction on the convex surface of the specimen after bending. Open discontinuities occurring on the comers of the specimen during testing shall not be considered unless there is definite evidence that they result from lack of fusion, slag inclusions, or other intemal discontinuities. For corrosion-resistant weld overlay cladding, no open discontinuity exceeding 1/16 in (1.5 mm), measured in any direction, shall be permitted in the cladding, and no open discontinuity exceeding 1/8 in, (3 mm) shall be permitted along the approximate weld interface. 3.5 Fillet Weld Test 3.5.1 Specimens The dimensions and preparation of fillet weld test specimens for performance qualification shall conform to the requirements in QW-462.4(b) or QW-462.4(c).

COMBINATION OF WELDING PROCESSES ‘Awelder may be qualified by making tests with each individual welding process in separate test ‘coupons, or with a combination of welding processes in a single test coupon. For combination qualifications in a single test coupon, the limits for thickness of deposited weld metal, and bend and fillet testing, are given in QW-452 and shall be considered individually for each welding process, ‘A welder qualified in combination on a single test coupon is qualified to weld in production using any of his processed individually or in different combinations provided he welds withi his limits of qualification with each specific process. Failure of any portion of a combination test in a single test coupon constitutes failure of the entire combination. 6.

QW-141 Mechanical Tests Mechanical tests used in procedure or performance qual- ification are specified in QW-141.1 through QW-141.5. . (QW-14L.1 Tension Tests, Tension tests as described i in QW-150 are used to determine the ultimate strength of i sgroove-weld joints. ‘ QW-1412 Guided-Bend Tests. Guided-bend tests as described in QW-160 are used to determine the degree of soundness and ductility of groove-weld joints. | QW-141.3 Fillet-Weld Tests. Tests as described in | (QW-180 are used to determine the size, contour, and degree of soundness of fillet welds. | QW-141.4 Notch-Toughness Tests. Tests as described ! in QW-171 and QW-172 are used to determine the notch toughness of the weldment. QW-141.5 Stud-Weld Test. Deflection bend, ham- mering, torque, or tension tests as shown in figures QW-466.4, QW-466.5, and QW-466.6, and a macro-exam- ' ination performed in accordance with QW-202.5, respec ' tively, are used to determine acceptability of stud welds. QW-142 Special Examinations for Welders i Radiographic examination may be substituted for mechanical testing of QW-141 for groove-weld perform- ance qualification as permitted in QW-304 to prove the ability of welders to make sound welds. ‘Anexaminaton ofa weld by radiography may be substi- ‘uted for mechanical testing of QW-141 for groove weld performance qualification as permitted in QW-305 to prove the ability of welding operators to make sound welds. QW.144 Visual Examination Visual examination as described in QW-194 is used to determine thatthe final weld surfaces meet specified quality conditions.

The radiographic examination in QW-142 for welders and in QW-143 for welding operators shall meet the requirements of Article 2, Section V, except as follows: (a) A.writen radiographic examination procedure is not required. Demonstration of density and image quality requirements on production or technique radiographs shall bbe considered satisfactory evidence of compliance with Article 2 of Section V. (6) Final acceptance of radiographs shall be based on the ability to see the prescribed image and the specified hole of a hole-type image quality indicator (IN) or the designated wire of a wire-type IQJ. The acceptance stan- dards of QW-191.2 shall be met. QW-191.2 Radiographic Acceptance Criteria QW-191.2.4 Terminology (a) Linear Indications. Cracks, incomplete fusion, inadequate penetration, and slag are represented on the radiograph as linear indications in which the length is more than three times the width, (2) Rounded indications, Porosity ané inclusions such as slag or tungsten are represented on the radiograph as rounded indications with a length thre times the width or less, These indications may be circular, elliptical, or iregu- Jar in shape; may have tals; and may vary in density. (QW-191.2.2 Acceptance Standards. Welder and welding operator performance tests by radiography of Welds in test assemblies shall be judged unacceptable when the radiograph exhibits any imperfections in excess of the limits specified below (a) Linear Indications (1) any type of crack or zone of incomplete fusion or penetration (2) any elongated slag inclusion which has a length ‘greater than (a) in. @ mm) fortup to% in.
