UDC 621.18-034, 14:621.791:620.179 Edition June 1989 Technical Rules Welding of steel components [ for Guidelines for testing of welded TED e ‘Steam Boilers sections, drums and headers with higher nen. (TRD) efficiency welded joints — Production tests Manufecine The Technical Rules for Steam Boilers (TRD) reflect the present state of safety requirements for the materials, manu: facture, design, equipment, erection, inspection, and testing as well as the operation of steam boilers. They are prepared ‘and updated according to the most recent technical developments by Deutscher DampfkesselausschuS (DA) The TRD sheet are published on behalf of “Deutscher DamptkesselausschuB” by \Vereinigung der Technischen Oberwachungsvereine e.V. Essen, P.O. Box 10 38 34, 4300 Essen 1 Translated by Fachverband Dampfkestel,, Behilter- und Rohrleitungsbau o.V., Disseldorf 1f there is any doubt regarding the interpretation of this sheet, the German wording shall apply. Contents, 1 Extent of production testing 4 Requirements 2 Number, taking and dimension of test pieces for quality testing 3 Welding of test pieces, number ‘and taking of specimen 5 Supplementary teste 6 Alleviations for production tests (2) Guided bend test to DIN 60121, Part 1, Fig. 2, on 4 specimens (two specimens each subjected to tensile load on the one and on the other weld side), On the tensileoaded side the original test piece surface shall bbe maintained, as far as possible, upon dressing of the weld reinforcement. Larger grooves such as undorcuts, shrinkage grooves shall not be removed. (3) Impact test to DIN 50118 from the centre of the weld metal with notch position $ to DIN 50 122 on three specimens. = 1, Extent of production testing The production test comprises the nondestructive examina- tion of the component and the quality test of the test piece. The test temperature and the requirements shall be ‘accordance with Table 1 (4) Examination of specimen structure (macrosection, for alloyed!) steels additionally microsection) (5) Prior to dividing the test pieces into specimens, the radiographic examinations to DIN 54109 and DIN 54111 shall be performed. in addition, as far as the operating temperature exceeds 350 °C, upon decision of the inspector: (6) Tensile test to DIN 50145 on an allaweld metal speci- men (round specimen with Le 5d to DIN 50125) for thicknesses > 20 mm for determining 0.2 % proof stress at operating temperature 1.2. Quality testing of test pieces ‘The following test shall be performed on a test piece ‘welded to the component in extension of a longitudinal weld (see paragraphs 2, especially 2.4, and 3): (1) Tensile test on two specimens, specimen shape to DIN 50120, Fig. 1, however with a test length = welded joint + at least 80 mm, (7) Analysis of weld regarding the constituents being essential to the elevated temperature properties, 1) For division of steel grades (unalloyed or alloyed) see EURO: NORM 20.
