The weld metal A-Number determination is in accordance with ASME Section IX 2023 Edition.
Utility
This app determine the assigned A-Number based on chemical composition in a "as weld" condition. Weld metal A-Number is used for procedure qualification. Changes in weld metal A-Number may require procedure re-qualification.
Competitive Edge
There is no app available in the market to determine weld metal A-Number. User mostly compare weld metal composition against ranges given in ASME Section IX. This handy tool makes life easy by comparing the chemical composition to that of the ranges for given A-Number and provide accurate result.
