# Welding

Welding is a part of the Pressure Vessel manufacturing process. Welding on pressure vessels must be extremely high quality to withstand working conditions. Properly preparing for welding can reduce or even eliminate reworking.

#### **1 Preliminary Welding Procedure Specification (PWPS)**

A **pWPS (Preliminary Welding Procedure Specification)** is a preliminary or draft welding procedure prepared before the actual qualification of a welding process. It is mainly used as a guideline for conducting welding during the Procedure Qualification stage. In industries such as pressure vessels, piping, structural fabrication, offshore, and oil &amp; gas, welding procedures must be qualified and approved before they can be used for production welding. The pWPS is the first step in this qualification process.

**Note :** The Approved pwps only can be used in the **PQR**.

#### **2 Procedure Qualification Record (PQR)**

A Procedure Qualification Record (PQR) is required when it is necessary to demonstrate that your company can produce welds with the required mechanical and metallurgical properties. A welding procedure must be qualified in accordance with the requirements of the applicable welding procedure standard (such as ASME Section IX, ISO 15614, etc.).

Each welder is separately qualified for a particular welding process, position, and range of parameters through a Welder Performance Qualification (WPQ). Therefore, weld testing for procedure qualification is typically performed by a competent welder, while individual welder qualification tests are carried out to ensure each welder meets the acceptance criteria for the process.

#### **3 Welder Procedure Specification (WPS)**

A Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) provides direction to welders and welding operators for producing sound and quality welds in accordance with code requirements. Each welder is certified through a qualification test, documented in a Welder Performance Qualification (WPQ or WQTR), which demonstrates that the welder has the required skill and ability to deposit weld metal following the specified WPS.

A WPS must be supported by a Procedure Qualification Record (PQR), which proves that the procedure can produce welds with the necessary mechanical properties. The WPQ/WQTR, on the other hand, validates the welder’s ability to follow the WPS.

The **WPS** in the **Weld &amp; Weld Details** menu used to add the details of WPS. To navigate to WPS,

1\. Click **WPS** in the **Welding menu.**

 The **WPS** page opens.
