Do any North Amercian codes set limits on the welding rod angle? If so please reference the code. Thank you.

RE: Rod Angle
In some weld profiles, the angle of the electrode is key to getting a proper weld profile. An example would be a horizontal fillet weld.
Besides, it would have to be specified as an angle in at least 2 planes, which would be difficult to monitor and control.
I don't deal with AWS on a daily basis anymore, so hopefully others can confirm or set me straight!
