For TIG welding, according to Section IX, joint preparation is not an essential variable. But if the weld root open is much larger than in WPS or the bevel angle changed, do you need to prepare another WPS and using the same PQR?
Thanks

For the attached weld coupon, what is the base material thickness I should put in the PQR? what is the range of the qualified base material thickness(QW-451.1)I should put in the WPS?
Thank you so much for your help.
What are the relationship between these two codes regarding piping design (such as primary loop piping) and joint design and welding fabrication?
Thanks in advance.
I have a question about the WPS and PQR coupon welding, does the coupon have to be welded by welding operator who is qualified in accordance with ASME section IX?
I am working on WPS and PQR for canister lid welding and have some questions about the test coupon preparation. The wall thickness of the canister structure lid is 3" wall thickness (which will weld to the outer shell of the canister) and have a 30° bevel angle with 1.25" deep. But the weld...
