It is
recommended a nominal thickness before forming 15% higher than the minimum
specified thickness to ensure after forming thickness is above it.

As per UG-79 (d)(3) The reduction in weld thickness after
forming shall not exceed 1/32 in. (1 mm) or 10% of the nominal thickness of
the adjoining surface, whichever is less.
