    GENERAL NOTES:
    (a) Weld joint strength reduction factors at temperatures above the upper temperature limit listed in Appendix A for the base metal or out-
    side of the applicable range in Table 302.3.5 are the responsibility of the designer. At temperatures below those where weld joint
    strength reduction factors are tabulated, a value of 1.0 shall be used for the factor W where required; however, the additional rules of
    this Table and Notes do not apply.
    (b) Tcr p temperature 25°C (50°F) below the temperature identifying the start of time-dependent properties listed under
    "NOTES – TIME-DEPENDENT PROPERTIES" (Txx) in the Notes to Tables 1A and 1B of the BPV Code Section II, Part D for the base metals
    joined by welding. For materials not listed in the BPV Code Section II, Part D, Tcr shall be the temperature where the creep rate or
    stress rupture criteria in paras. 302.3.2(d)(4), (5), and (6) governs the basic allowable stress value of the metals joined by welding.
    When the base metals differ, the lower value of Tcr shall be used for the weld joint.
    (c) Ti p temperature, °C (°F), of the component for the coincident operating pressure–temperature condition, i, under consideration.
    (d) CAUTIONARY NOTE: There are many factors that may affect the life of a welded joint at elevated temperature and all of those factors
    cannot be addressed in a table of weld strength reduction factors. For example, fabrication issues such as the deviation from a true cir-
    cular form in pipe (e.g., "peaking" at longitudinal weld seams) or offset at the weld joint can cause an increase in stress that may
    result in reduced service life and control of these deviations is recommended.
    (e) The weld joint strength reduction factor, W, may be determined using linear interpolation for intermediate temperature values.
    NOTES:
    (1) The Cr–Mo Steels include: 1⁄2Cr–1⁄2Mo, 1Cr–1⁄2Mo, 11⁄4Cr–1⁄2Mo–Si, 21⁄4Cr–1Mo, 3Cr–1Mo, 5Cr–1⁄2Mo, 9Cr–1Mo. Longitudinal and spiral
    (helical seam) welds shall be normalized, normalized and tempered, or subjected to proper subcritical postweld heat treatment (PWHT)
    for the alloy. Required examination is in accordance with para. 341.4.4 or 305.2.4.
    (2) Longitudinal and spiral (helical seam) seam fusion welded construction is not permitted for C–1⁄2Mo steel above 850°F.
    (3) The required carbon content of the weld filler metal shall be ≥0.05 C wt. %. See para. 341.4.4(b) for examination requirements.
    Basicity index of SAW flux ≥1.0.
    (4) The CSEF (Creep Strength Enhanced Ferritic) steels include grades 91, 92, 911, 122, and 23.
    (5) N + T p Normalizing + Tempering PWHT.
    (6) Autogenous welds without filler metal in austenitic stainless steel (grade 3xx) and austenitic nickel alloys UNS Nos. N066xx and
    N088xx. A solution anneal after welding is required for use of the factors in the Table. See para. 341.4.3(b) for examination
    requirements.
    (7) Alternatively, the 100,000 hr Stress Rupture Factors listed in ASME Section III, Division 1, Subsection NH, Tables I-14.10 A-xx, B-xx,
    and C-xx may be used as the weld joint strength reduction factor for the materials and welding consumables specified.
    (8) Certain heats of the austenitic stainless steels, particularly for those grades whose creep strength is enhanced by the precipitation of
    temper-resistant carbides and carbonitrides, can suffer from an embrittlement condition in the weld heat affected zone that can lead to
    premature failure of welded components operating at elevated temperatures. A solution annealing heat treatment of the weld area miti-
    gates this susceptibility.
    (9) For carbon steel, W p 1.0 for all temperatures. For materials other than carbon steel, CrMo, CSEF, and the austenitic alloys listed in
    Table 302.3.5, W shall be as follows: For Ti ≤ Tcr, W p 1.0. For Tcr < Ti ≤ 1,500°F, W p 1 − 0.000909(Ti − Tcr). If Ti exceeds the upper
    temperature for which an allowable stress value is listed in Appendix A for the base metal, the value for W is the responsibility of the
    designer.
