Yield Strength – Is your Pipeline Weld Procedure (WPS) still in compliance?

New prescriptive requirements in CSA Z662:23 may require you to re-qualify procedures.

New prescriptive requirements in CSA Z662:23 may require you to re-qualify procedures where the Specified Minimum Yield Strength of materials is greater than 386 MPa.

The new requirements in CSA Z662:23 were implemented to address concerns with undermatched weld strength and heat affected zone (HAZ) softening on higher grades of line pipe that may result in catastrophic failure under certain conditions.
