QUALIFICATION OF WELDERS FOR CERTAIN DISTRIBUTION
MAINS AND SERVICE LINES
I. Basic test. The test is made on pipe 12
			 inches or less in diameter. The test weld must be made with the pipe in a
			 horizontal fixed position so that the test weld includes at least one section
			 of overhead position welding. The beveling, root opening, and other details
			 must conform to the specifications of the procedure under which the welder is
			 being qualified. Upon completion, the test weld is cut into four coupons and
			 subjected to a root bend test. If, as a result of this test, two or more of the
			 four coupons develop a crack in the weld material, or between the weld material
			 and base metal, that is more than 1/8-inch long in any direction, the weld is
			 unacceptable. Cracks that occur on the corner of the specimen during testing
			 are not considered. A welder who successfully passes a butt-weld qualification
			 test under this section shall be qualified to weld on all pipe diameters less
			 than or equal to 12 inches.
II.
			 Additional tests for welders of service line connections to mains. A service
			 line connection fitting is welded to a pipe section with the same diameter as a
			 typical main. The weld is made in the same position as it is made in the field.
			 The weld is unacceptable if it shows a serious undercutting or if it has rolled
			 edges. The weld is tested by attempting to break the fitting off the run pipe.
			 The weld is unacceptable if it breaks and shows incomplete fusion, overlap, or
			 poor penetration at the junction of the fitting and run pipe.
III. Periodic tests for welders of small
			 service lines. Two samples of the welder's work, each about 8 inches long with
			 the weld located approximately in the center, are cut from steel service line
			 and tested as follows:
One sample is centered in a guided bend testing machine and
				bent to the contour of the die for a distance of 2 inches on each side of the
				weld. If the sample shows any breaks or cracks after removal from the bending
				machine, it is unacceptable.
The ends of the second sample are flattened and the entire
				joint subjected to a tensile strength test. If failure occurs adjacent to oil
				in the weld metal, the weld is unacceptable. If a tensile strength testing
				machine is not available, this sample must also pass the bending test
				prescribed in subparagraph (1) of this paragraph.

EXAMPLES ILLUSTRATING THE REINFORCEMENT OF WELDED
BRANCH CONNECTIONS
Example 1
An 8 inch outlet is welded into a 24 inch header. The header
				material is API 5LX 46 with 5/16 inch wall. The outlet is API 5L Grade B
				(Seamless) Sched. 40 with 0.322 inch wall. The working pressure is 650 PSI. The
				Class Location is 1. The joint efficiency is 1.00. The temperature is 100°
				F. Design Factors F=0.60, E=1.00, T=1.00. For dimensions see Figure for Example
				1, Appendix 14-G.
Header:
Nominal wall thickness:
t =(PD/2 SFET)(650 x 24/2 x 46000 x 0.60 x 1.00 x 1.00) = 0.283
				inch
Excess thickness in header wall (H-t) =0.312 - 0.283 = 0.029
				inch
Outlet:
Nominal wall thickess:
t b = ( 650 x 8.625/2 x 35000 x 0.60 x
				1.00 x 1.00) = 0.133 inch
Excess thickness i outlet wall (B-t b)
				=0.322-0.133 = 0.189 inch
d = diameter of opening = 8.625-(2 x 0.322) =7.981 inch
Reinforcement required.
A R = d x t = 7.981 x 0.283 = 2.26
				square inch
Reinforcement provided:
A 1 = (H-t)d = 0.029 x 7.981 = 0.23
				square inch
Effective area in outlet:
Height (L) 21/2 B + M (assume 1/4 inch pad) = 21/2 x 0.322 +
				0.25 = 1.05 inches or 21/2 H = 2.5 x 0.312 = 0.78 inch. Use 0.78 inch.
A 2 = 2(B-t b)L =
				2 x 0.189 x 0.78 = 0.295 sq. in.
This must be multiplied by 35000/46000
Effective A 2 = 0.295 x (35000/46000) =
				0.22 sq. in.
Required area A 3 = A
				R - A 1 - A
				2 = 2.26 - 0.23 - 0.22 = 1.81 sq. in.
Use reinf. pl. 1/4 inch thick (minimum practicable) x 15.5 inch
				diameter.
Area (15.50 - 8.62) x 0.25 = 1.72 sq. in.
Fillet welds (assuming two 1/4 inch welds each side)
0.25 x 0.25 x 0.50 x 2 x 2 = 0.12 sq. in.
Total A 3 provided 1.84 sq. in.
Example 2
A 16 inch outlet is welded into a 24 inch header. The header
				material is API 5LX46 with 5/16 inch wall. The outlet is API 5L Grade B
				(Seamless) Sched. 20 with 0.312 wall. The working pressure is 650 PSI. The
				Class Location is 1. The reinforcement must be of the complete encirclement
				type. The joint efficiency is 1.00. The temperature is 100° F. Design
				Factors F=0.60, E=1.00, T=1.00. For dimensions see Figure for Example 2 in
				Appendix 14-G.
Header:
Nominal wall thickness:
t =(PD/2 SFET)(650 x 24/2 x 46000 x 0.60 x 1.00 x 1.00) = 0.283

Excess thickness is header wall (H-t) =0.020 inch

Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
(a) The
				purpose of this Part is to establish such additional procedures as are
				necessary for the implementation of the State environmental quality review act
				(SEQR) by the New York State Department of Transportation. In accordance with
				the authority contained in section 8-0113, subdivision 3 of ECL and 6 NYCRR
				617.4, the procedures contained in this Part vary from those contained in 6
				NYCRR Part 617. The purpose of this variance is to allow the department to
				establish a procedure for SEQR implementation which corresponds with, and is
				integrated into, procedures for compliance with the National Environmental
				Policy Act.
(b) Such coordination
				of procedures is directed by SEQR in section 8-0111 and is consistent with
				Council on Environmental Quality regulations implementing the National
				Environmental Policy Act which have an effective date of July 30, 1979 (  40 CFR
				1500  et seq.).
(c) The major
				differences between this Part and 6 NYCRR Part 617 are:
(1) lead agency determinations are made at an
				earlier time in the SEQR process; and
(2) all actions which are not type II actions
				are processed in the same manner (similar to type I under 6 NYCRR Part
				617).

				participation of the department in such project or physical activity is not an
				action subject to this Part.

				The department shall determine whether its participation in the project or
				physical activity constitutes a direct action, funding or permit-granting. The

				the proposed action is a direct action, the department shall determine whether
				or not the action is one which is a type II action, as listed in section

				the proposed action be either type II or excluded, the department shall have no
				further obligation with respect to this Part for such action. Should such
				direct action not be type II or excluded, the procedures of section
				15.6 
				of this Part shall apply.

				be an agency with a type II list promulgated and established pursuant to the
				requirements of SEQR in order to reference the applicant's type II list), and
				whether or not such action is excluded. Along with any application, proposed or
				submitted, an applicant shall submit to the department information sufficient
				for the department to make such determination. Should the proposed action of
				the applicant be determined to be either type II or excluded, the department
				shall have no further obligation with respect to this Part for such action.
				Should such action not be type II or excluded, either:
(1) the procedures of section
				15.7 
				of this Part shall be followed where the department is the lead agency pursuant
				to section
				15.5 
				of this Part; or
(2) the procedures
				of section
				15.8 
				of this Part shall be followed where the department is not the lead agency
				pursuant to section
				15.5 
				of this Part.
