Post Weld Heat Treatment Chart
Hi
See below the interpretation. The weld build thickness may be considered as governing thickness for PWHT. but, B 31.3 does not address this weld build up.
However, as per material specification ( I think you are using SA105), any weld repair requires heat treatment. See below.

Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) As mentioned in Part 1, PWHT is a specific term that encompasses both stress relief and tempering and is not to be confused with heat treatments after welding. Such treatments may comprise ageing of aluminium alloys, solution treatment of austenitic stainless steel, hydrogen release etc. PWHT is a mandatory. Susceptible materials should be given a post-weld heat treatment to a temperature greater than 950 °C to take the carbides into solution. Carbide precipitation problems are largely overcome in stabilised grades, for example types 321 and 347, by addition of elements (Ti and Nb) which form carbides preferentially to. Heat Treatment of steel (Annealing,Tempering,Quenching or Hardening,Case hardening,Nitriding) - Duration: 7:02. Pravendra Tomar PT Sir IITJEE, NEET 153,918 views 7:02.
Requirements
Post weld heat treatment (pwht) In order to keep the strength of the material maintained after welding, a process called post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) is usually carried out. This process can be used to decrease residual stresses, as a means to control hardness, and enhance the strength of the material. All carbon-steel weld joints must be post weld heat-treated if their thickness exceeds 11 ⁄4 in or exceeds 11 ⁄2 in if the material has been preheated to a minimum temperature of 200°F during welding Code Par. UCS-56 and Table UCS-56 Fn. 2 (a) Vessels containing lethal substances must be post weld heat treated (Code Par.

331.1.3@) which states 'the thickness through the weld in any plane' refer to the weld thickness?
Reply (1):Yes.
Question (2): In accordance with ASME B31.3-1993 Edition, Addendab, does the minimum
material thickness stated in para. 331.1.3(b) refer to the requirementsof Table 331.1.1?
Reply(2): Yes.
Question (3): In accordance withASME B31.3-1993 Edition, Addenda b, can the BHN (Brinell
Hardness Number) equivalent of tensile strength of material before PWHT be considered a minimum
value?
Reply (3): The Code does not address BHN equivalent of tensile strength or minimum BHN.
