Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
(a) Shells,
						drums and headers. Wasted areas in stayed and unstayed shells, drums and
						headers may be built up by welding provided that in the judgment of the
						authorized inspector the strength of the structure will not be impaired. Where
						extensive weld build-up is employed, the authorized inspector may require an
						appropriate method of nondestructive examination for the complete surface of
						the repair. Wasted areas shall be built up by welding as specified in Figure
						14-3.9(1) or by other equivalent methods.
(b) Access openings. Wasted areas around
						access openings may be built up by welding provided that in the judgment of the
						inspector the strength of the structure will not be impaired, or they shall be
						repaired as specified in Figure 14-3.9(2) or by other equivalent methods. The
						area to be repaired may not be closer than two inches from any
						knuckle.
(c) Flanges.
(1) Wasted flange faces may be cleaned
						thoroughly and built up with weld metal. Built-up flange faces should be
						machined in place, if possible, and shall be machined to a thickness not less
						than that of the original flange or that required by calculations in accordance
						with the provisions of the applicable section of the ASME Code.
(2) Wasted flanges may also be remachined in
						place without building up with weld metal provided the metal removed in the
						process does not reduce the thickness of the flange to a measurement below that
						calculated above. Flanges which leak because of warpage or distortion and which
						cannot be remachined shall be replaced with new flanges which have at least the
						dimensions conforming to the applicable section of the ASME Code.

Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
(a) Seal
						welding of tubes. Tubes may be seal welded provided the ends of the tube have
						sufficient wall thickness to prevent burnthrough and the requirements of the
						appropriate sections of the ASME Code are satisfied. Seal welding of tubes
						shall be done as specified in Figure 14-3.10(1) or by other equivalent
						methods.
(b) Seal welding of
						riveted joints. Edges of butt straps or of plate laps and nozzles or
						connections attached by riveting may be restored to original dimensions by
						welding. Seal welding may not be used except with the special approval of the
						authorized inspector, and in no case where cracks are present in riveted areas.
						Seal welding shall be done as specified in Figure 14-3.10(2) or by other
						equivalent methods.
(1) Caulking edges of
						riveted joints, except longitudinal seams of unstayed cylindrical shells or
						drums subjected to internal pressure, may be seal welded provided the seam is
						first mechanically caulked and made tight under hydrostatic pressure. Seal
						welding shall not be considered a strength weld after hydrostatic
						test.
(2)
(i) Leakage at riveted joints or tube ends
						must be carefully investigated to determine the cause before welding is
						permitted.
(ii) Prior to seal
						welding riveted joints, the area should be examined by an appropriate method of
						nondestructive examination to assure that there are no cracks radiating from
						the rivet holes. If necessary, the rivets should be removed to assure complete
						examination of the area. Seal welding should not be performed if cracks are
						present in riveted areas.
(3) On tubes, seal welding may be applied on
						either the outside or the inside. On a riveted joint, seal welding shall be
						applied on only one side.
(4) Care
						shall be exercised so that the heat from seal welding will not distort the
						plates or loosen the rivets.
(5) On
						dished heads, seal welding shall not be applied to the flange closer than
						one-half inch to the point of tangency of the knuckle of the flange.

						rolled and welded; or rolled and seal welded without flaring, provided the
						throat of the seal weld is not less than three-sixteenths inch, nor more than
						three-eighths inch, and the tubes are re-expanded after welding.
(b) Tube ends or weld necks may be fusion
						welded to the drums of water-tube boilers without expanding or
						flaring.

						tubes in water tube boilers, it may be screwed instead of rolled and flared.
						The ends of stub tubes may be closed by either forge or fusion
						welding.
(d) Tubes may be seal
						welded into fittings or headers for both boilers and superheaters after they
						have been expanded and flared, provided the material in the fittings or
						headers, does not contain carbon in excess of 0.35 percent.
(e) The ends of all tubes, suspension tubes,
						and nipples of water-tube boilers and superheaters shall project through the
						tube sheets or headers not less than one-quarter inch nor more than one- half
						inch before flaring. Where the tubes enter at an angle, the maximum limit of
						one-half inch shall apply only at the point of least projection.
