A1) There are risks of increasing the occurrence of brittle fracture owing to inadequate time for the weld metal to normalise relative to the base metal.

A2) The job will take longer.

Banu...

A1) Possible bad things...

A2) No bad things..... longer coffee break.

Do you understand why a PWHT is performed on a welded joint ?

Do you understand what a PWHT really is ?
