Determining the Welding Profile specified on WPS for Pipeline
Determining the Welding Profile specified on WPS for Pipeline
(OP)
Dear Welding and piping expert.
it is whom responsibility to determine the type of pipe/piping welding profile " Root depth, Spacing , Bevel angle and shape Single or double grooving , V or J type ?
On what basis these parameters " Type of profile , dimensions along with Welding electrode type [ root , hot , filling and cap ] " are selected ?
is there any engineering software to select or design the welding joint for pipe/piping ?
Regards,
Tarek

usually the engineer designing it.
parameters, voltage/amperage/dimensions/root depth, fill and cap can be taken from ASME IX 2013.
do you already have supporting PQR's or what stage are you at with that?
