Hello,

Is there minimum distance limitation between two weld joints as per ASME B31.3.

RE: Distance between two weld joints as per ASME B31.3.

The code doesn't specify a minimum distance, as this is a welding requirement to prevent overlap of the HAZ. Typical Client specification require a gap of 2t or 40 mm, whichever is smaller.
