Post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) helps alleviate residual stresses in the welding region that could threaten brittle fracture. ASME B31.3 Clause 331.1.1 and Table 331.1.3 establish specific PWHT requirements based on pipe material. However, certain pre-heat temperatures can exempt PWHT requirements in certain situations. 1. Welding Temperature Temperature plays an essential part in welding. It regulates …

Welding leaves residual stresses behind that can erode material properties. Post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) may be required to reduce these stresses and restore original material properties. PWHT uses a controlled ramp-soak profile at temperatures below the material’s initial transformation temperature to reheat welded material in an area known as the heated zone, or gradient control …
