RE: dearator dish end

jamil,
I'm not "The expert" you are looking for, but I know a thing or two..
1. the dished end should be delivered normalised from the manufacturer, but after welding it to the shell you don't need the PWHT.
2. for the joint of the dished end with pressure on the concave side use UG-32(l) and the type of joint shown on UW-13.1(l) or (m). You have to taper down the skirt (if is thicker than the shell, I assume a SE 2:1 dish) on a 3:1 ratio, down to 16mm.
3. 210HB is fine.
4. the plates can be welded together, then ground flush and fully radiographed, prior to forming.
cheers,
gr2vessels
