RE: WELD N/P BKT AFTER PWHT

depends.

ucs-56 has pwht rules.

If the vessel has not been pwht for a special service, but rather for code thickness rules, you can weld this on after pwht as long as you do the following:
A.  have user approval
B.  have ai approval
C.  write a procedure for welding after pwht to follow ucs-56

this is standard fabrication rules.  Read the code please
