According to ASME IX QW-202.2(c) do we had really to qualify fillet weld pressure retaining part with groove weld coupons ?

If you are attempting to qualify fillet welds for non-pressure applications, you can certainly qualify a procedure for just this purpose.

Best regards.

Agreed, this has nothing to do with welder qualification. The rationale for my statement above is that the skill level and subsequent mechanical testing requirements are more rigorous for groove welds in comparison to fillet welds. This is why one can qualify a procedure for fillet welds used in pressure retaining service with a groove weld coupon versus qualifying a procedure for only fillet welds.

gtaw, it concerns a procedure
someone had an interpretation of this section ?
