RE: Mock Up Testing of Tube To Tube sheet
It must be made to the original specifications, have 'original' tubes installed and then removed, and then the new tubes installed.
How else would you know what rolling torque to use and how tight the joints are?
If you are strength welding people often only do them if they need to qualify the weld procedure (or operator).
If you are seal welding it often comes down to how critical the service is, they are still done regularly.
Ask your re-tubing company what their practice is.
