Any standards on plug welds?

Any standards on plug welds?

Any standards on plug welds?

(OP)
I have found information in AWS D1.1 (various paragraphs, see 'plug welds' in the index) that defines hole sizes, shapes and spacing as well as weld size but I do not know the background.

Doies anyone know of other International/National standards that provide guidance on design/execution of plug welds? Anything in ASME B&PV?

RE: Any standards on plug welds?

Yes there is something in ASME B&PV Code.

RE: Any standards on plug welds?

(OP)
Thanks, unfortunately I do not have electronic copies of ASME B&PV, so I can't search through them.

Can you point me at the right section/clause?

RE: Any standards on plug welds?

Section VIII Div 1 UW-17
