Welding till the End!
Sour service, in the the oil and gas industry, is a term used to describe the conditions in which equipment, pipelines, and infrastructure come into contact with corrosive and hydrogen sulfide-rich environments. These harsh conditions can lead to corrosion and other forms of damage, making sour service an important consideration for the safety and integrity […]
In various industries, from construction to manufacturing, understanding the weight of pipes is crucial for planning, safety, and cost estimation. A pipe weight calculator is an essential tool that simplifies this process, allowing engineers, architects, and contractors to quickly determine the weight of a pipe based on its material, dimensions, and length. This article explores
We will provide Hemispherical Dishend Weight Calculator in this article. A hemispherical dished end, also known simply as a hemispherical head or hemispherical cap, is a type of end closure or cap used in pressure vessels, tanks, and containers. It is characterized by its shape, which resembles half of a sphere. This design offers certain
Elbow is the most commonly used fitting to change the angle or direction of the pipe run. Most commonly in 90 degrees and 45 degree turns. Elbow weight calculator and charts are also provided below for 90 degree short and long radius elbow Knowing the approximate weight of the fittings helps us calculate the: O.D=
In this article we will discuss about the taper transition requirement for dissimilar thickness as per ASME Section VIII Division 1: What is Taper Transition? Transition is formed by removing the material by grinding or machining from the thicker material section to match it with the thinner section’s thickness. When Taper Transition required? Taper transition

Welding is a fundamental process used across various industries to join metals permanently. Whether it’s for manufacturing structures, pipelines, automotive parts, or even artistic creations, welding plays a crucial role in shaping modern society. One essential aspect of welding is the use of shielding gases, which are employed to protect the welding area and the
To ensure the satisfactory performance of a component/structure, the component shall be tested with adequate testing procedure with the adequate testing method. Which in general specifies component can be used in the service requirement specified. Soundness to the purpose of component can be determined by either destructive or non-destructive testing of the component. But as
ASME Boiler and pressure vessel code (BPVC) Section IX has assigned certain numbers to base metals to minimize the number of procedure and qualifications these are P-Number, Group No, F-Number and A-Number in welding. Base metals are categorized as P number is further divided in group numbers based essentially on comparable base metal characteristics, such
Welding is a critical process used in various industries to join metals and create strong, durable structures. To ensure the quality and integrity of welded joints, various factors must be considered, and one of the most crucial steps in this process is preheating. Preheating in welding is a method of raising the temperature of the
