Excessive atomic hydrogen trapped in hardenable steel can exert enough pressure to cause critical defects such as underbead cracking and delayed brittle fracture. One source of hydrogen in the arc atmosphere is moisture in the electrode coating, and for l this reason Alloy Rods exercises extreme control in the production of low hydrogen elecrodes. All Atom Arc Low Hydrogen electrodes are manufactured to contain moisture levels below .02% as they are packed in hermetically sealed containers In addition. Atom Arc 7018 elec-trodes are now manufactured with a flux coating that effectively resists moisture pickup for many hours after the container is opened This improved coatir g provides an extra degree of reliability, especially for electrodes exposed to high temperature - high humidity working conditions This new moisture resistant coating is now standard for all sizes of Atom Arc 7018 electrodes. The improved coating was carefully formulated not only to resist moisture pick-up.but also to retain the fine operating characteristics and consistent dependability foi which the entire Atom Arc line is so well recognized i MOISTURE TESTING AND RESULTS The AWS D1.1 Structural Code and the Military MIL-E-22200/1E specifications allow a max-imum of.4% moisture content for E70XX low hydrogen electrodes. Testing by Alloy Rods under specific combinations of relative humidity and temperature has demonstrated that the improved Atom Arc 7018 electrode satisfies this low moisture requirement for exposure times beyond those normally allowed in field use. In f act under certain conditions, the rnoesture resistant Atom Arc 7018 electrode remained below the.4% max level even after % hours of exposure. I O6b-SQ ~ = m 3oL

The method of moisture testing chosen by Alloy Rods is that described in AWS A5.5 31. The reasons for choosing this method are two-fold. First, it is the method required to satisfy AWS A5.5 and D1.1 specifications. Secondly, this test is sensitive only to water, and it is th l most accurate and reliable method of moisture determination currently in use. 3 f -l It should be noted that even though Atom Arc 7018 electrodes resist moisture pickup longer than ever before, no moisture resistant electrode will eliminate the need for storage and I rebake ovens and the necessity to follow code requirements for allowable exposure times. { l TYPICAL MECHANICAL PROPERTIES (,, ~ es l ~ ~ Stress Relieved l As Welded 2 hrs.

Professor Wang, in this report prepared for the Interpretive Reports Committee of the Welding Research Council, provides an objective view of operating theory, y process characteristics, advantages and limitations. Of particular interest is his comparison of friction g welding with two principal types of machines, inertial and continuous drive. e.g i l Data are included en the weldability of a variety of similar and dissimilar metals and al%ys, which show Q3 the importance of frictional characteristics and high temperature ductility. There is an obvious need for . #] further development work on a number of important metal combinations having marginal weldabihty.

J \\ t~ f Category 9,IW 'l4 Comanche Peak Open Issue Action Plan Task: Weld Rod Control Ref. Nos.: M-56, AqW-24, CPSES Issues Characterization: AW-56 alleged that welders were not keeping their rod cans plugged in. AQW-24 alleged that unauthorized weld filler metal was used to repair tube steel on a diesel generator. The CPSES issues, in summary, alleged that lax enforcement of weld rod control procedures resulted in a supply of uncontrolled electrodes with excessive exposure to ambient conditions. Initial Assessment of Significance: There appears to be sufficient specificity to warrant followup of these allegations. The safety significance is difficult to evaluate with the available information. Source: tiechanical and Piping Allegations, Category 9 Approach to Resolution: 1. Review Gibbs & Hill Specifications for applicable codes, materials, welding requirements, etc. 2. Review weld filler material requirements of ASME B&PV Code and AWS Dl.1 Structural Welding Code. 3.

Although violations of the procedure can and occasionally do occur, the frequency is minimal and we are confident that these violations are identified either through field verifications by QC and Welding Engineering Once identified each violation is thoroughly or subsequent document reviews. investigated and appropriate corrective action taken. Consideration has also been given to the possibility of an undetected Due to specification requirements that all welds on low alloy materials, including Non-Q applications, be documented on Weld Data Cards violation. the probability of or Operational Travelers with inspection hold points,such an occurance' is red All low carbon & mild steels (P-1) welded at CPSES utilizing the shielded metal arc process (SMA) in accordance with Brown & Root Welding These steels have a specified j Procedures are welded with E7018 electrode.

The exposure limits set forth in the Brown & Root filler metal control This is the maxioma cime procedure for E7018 electrode is four (4) hours.

Internal porosity is detrimental only to the extent thatThe it reduces the area of the cross section of the weld. code allowances for stress calculations for welds not re-quiring volumetric inspection are formulated with the conser-vatism to provide for this type of undetected discontinuity.

Again these types of defects are detectable by visual means and would be removed and corrected. Although it was deemed necessary to this report to describe the ef fects of moisture in a low hydrogen electrode it is {;) also fitting to put this into the proper prospective by conducting tests utilizing electrode that had been exposed To do this, to the atmosphere for long periods of time. we selected E7018 electrode that had been forwarded to the Welding Qualification & Training Center from the Material This electrode Distribution Center due to over expo; re. had been stored in the WQTC for seven months in an open container and open to the atmosphere of an unheated or k cooled shop.

When the minimum wall violation can be repaired in accordance with paragraphs 1,2, and 3 below, the Contractor may accomplish the repair without additional Engineering evaluation. When the minimum wall violation cannot be repaired in accordance with paragraphs 1, 2, and 3 below, the Contractor shall document and submit the wall thickness to site Engineering for evaluation and resolu-tion. Any required repairs shall be made in accordance with the following requirements:
- 1. Weld build-up of the outside diameter of piping shall consist of sufficient material to enable the pipe wall thickness to meet the minimum wall thick-ness criteria recomended by ASME SA 530 for nuclear piping or
- ASTM A 530 fornon-nuclearpiping(Attachment 7).
- 2. Weld build-up, after finish, on the 00 shall not exceed the 00 of the pipe as specified in the applicable material specification plus the maximum per-L missable variation, as expressed in specifications A or SA 530.

Q,80P t j When a weld is made utilizing a consumable insert and is rejected j after NDE, use of the open buttwelding technique to make repairs is pennitted when the repair does not exceed 3 inches. Repairs to areas i greater than 3 inches will be handled on a case-by-case basis and will l requi re Owner / Engineer approval. Q,BT To minimize sensitization of SS material, each defect shall be limited t o two repai rs. If the defect has not been eliminated in two attempts the procedure shall be subaitted to the Owner for approval defining j methods for further repair and sensitization control. When a weld is completely removed for any reason, the weld prep configuration may be i l restored and the weld replaced in accordance with an apprwed WPS. If any weld defects are evident in the replacement weld, a procedure i I. shall be submitted to the owner for repair and sensitization control l to remove all such defects. In no case shall a weld be conpletely i renoved and replaced more than twice without specific owner apprwal. l This paragraph applies to field welds only. ~ NOTE: When stainless steel items which have been welded previously are reused, the new weld number shall be the next sequential nunber of the item with the highest alpha numeric weld nunbe r. 3.19.3 Cosnetic Repair Q l : A cosmetic repair shall be considered the removal of ID or OD surface conditions which interfere with the interpretation of NDE after the final visual examination has been conpleted. This provides a second- ] ary signoff for visual examination and other NDE. A pre-established sequence may be used for cosmetic repairs. If the final visual examination on the WDC or MRS has not been signed I an gerational sequence to allow reinspection is not necessary. 3 p If visual examination has han conpleted, initiate a RPS operational j sequence. If an item covered by an MRS, " Final Dimension / Surface ( Condition" holdpoint has not been canpleted by the ANI, ANI review l shall be noted as "N/A". If signed, ANI, review is requi red. NOTE: For fabrication, ANI review shall be documented on the MtS. Require visual examination where accessible. Require UT examination, or where possible, mechanical measurement to verify wall thickness. e I Where VT is impossible, RT may be substituted. l
