welding rebar

welding rebar

(OP)
I have a client who operates a precast facility,he wants to get certified to weld A706 rebar ,I advised against it ,but he wants to move ahead, anyone know of a good reference.  

RE: welding rebar

I'm curious, why advise against it?  I know of precasters who weld up their own embed plates with A706 bars.  I imagine it saves the time and markup of having them fabricated elsewhere.

As for references, I'd start with AWS, AISC, PCI...

RE: welding rebar

AWS D1.4 is the welding code for reinforcing steel.
