Post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) reduces the risk of brittle fracture by eliminating residual stresses and tempering hard, potentially brittle microstructural regions. Current codes have different requirements for exempting PWHT depending on chemistry, inherent Charpy test property requirements, or through inspection codes allowing allowable defect size restrictions (Table 1). Limiting Thickness Current Codes require PWHT for …

Post-weld heat treatment, or PWHT for short, reduces and redistributes the residual stresses introduced by welding, while also providing for tempering, precipitation, and ageing processes to take place in certain materials. These changes in the material’s chemical makeup help reduce residual stress and enhance its strength, ultimately relieving tension during welding processes and materials that …

Hardness tests after PWHT are essential for understanding the quality of welds. A drop weight tester measures impact toughness to assess its impact resistance and weld metal impact resistance. Postweld heat treatment (PWHT) increases the hardness of EB weld metal (WM) by precipitation of Ti-C,O,N precipitates in its as-welded state [1], but impact toughness at …
