I have a WPS that has been qualified to section IX. The PQR specimen was welded in the 1G position and P1 material was used. All requirements of QW-452, QW-160, & QW-194 were met. Due to a conflict of interests I need to pose the question "What is the max fillet weld size allowed per this WPS in the qualified position?"
 
You say QW-452(?), this is for Performance qualifications, not a WPS/ PQR per QW-450? Please review the WPS and ensure that the WPS met the requirements of QW-450, QW-150, QW-160, & QW-194. If you are speaking of the Welder Qualification, if it was on a groove weld, the Welder is qualified for all thickness and diameters of Fillet welds.
