PROCEDURE FOR JOINT NUMBERING LT/MSQ/P/JN/013

1.0 SCOPE
This procedure outlines the method of joint numbering on the isometric drawings.
This procedure is applicable for MSQ Unit .
2.0 PROCEDURE:
After receipt of approved drawing, detailed fabrication & erection scope will be
worked out by planning/ piping engineer based on availability of drawing and
material. The approved Isometric Drg. Shall be marked with all the weld joints
(shop/field) prior to fabrication in the flow direction with a number to identify
each weld in the following sequence and one set of this marked Isometric drawing
shall be submitted to L&T QC & Jacobs for their reference.
2.1 U/G PIPING
2.1.1 Joint Numbering will be marked after receiving of all sheets of individual lines. Butt
joints will be marked as a continuation no. J1, J2, J3…Jn. Shop joint read as 1,2,3,
………. & field joint will have the prefix ‘FJ’ i.e. FJ1, FJ2, FJ3, FJ4…
2.1.2 Branch joints will be marked as a continuation number from BR J1, J2, J3…Jn.
2.1.3 Socket joints will be marked as a continuation number SW J1, J2, J3…Jn.
2.1.4 Miter joints will have prefix MJ.
2.1.5 Re welded joints will have suffix RW to the previous joint number. For example joint
number 1 is re welded then it will be marked as 1RW.
2.1.6 Cut out joints in Radiography will have suffix N to the previous joint number.
2.1.7 Repair joints in radiography will have suffix R1, R2…to the previous joint number
2.1.8 Penalty joints in radiography will have suffix P1, P2…to the previous radiography
number.
2.1.9 Modification joints will have suffix M to the previous joints.
2.1.10 Additional joints will have suffix A, B, C…for example an additional joint is coming in
between joint number 2 & 3, then this additional joint number will be marked as 2A.

2.1.11 This Numbering will be maintained in a welding control database package i.e. ALPS
2.2 A/G PIPING:
2.2.1 Joint Numbering will be marked after receiving of all sheets of individual lines. Butt
joints will be marked as a continuation no. J1, J2, J3…Jn. Shop joint read as 1,2,3,
………. & field joint will have the prefix ‘FJ’ i.e. FJ1, FJ2, FJ3, FJ4…
2.2.2 Branch joints will be marked as a continuation number from BR J1, J2, J3…Jn.
2.2.3 Socket joints will be marked as a continuation number SW J1, J2, J3…Jn.
2.2.4 Miter joints will have prefix MJ.
2.2.5 Re welded joints will have suffix RW to the previous joint number. For example joint
number 1 is re welded then it will be marked as 1RW.
2.2.6 Cut out joints in Radiography will have suffix N to the previous joint number.
2.2.7 Repair joints in radiography will have suffix R1, R2…to the previous joint number.
2.2.8 Penalty joints in radiography will have suffix P1, P2…to the previous radiography
number.
2.2.9 Modification joints will have suffix M to the previous joints.
2.2.10 Additional joints will have suffix A, B, C…for example an additional joint is coming in
between joint number 2 & 3, then this additional joint number will be marked as 2A.
2.2.12 This Numbering will be maintained in a welding control database package i.e. ALPS

 Note: No joint number will be repeated in the same line number.
