Welder Qual is a 'skill test'. 6G or 2G+5G just prove that the welder can weld in 'All Positions". The welder ALSO has to prove his ability to weld uphill or downhill. A successful uphill test qualifies for uphill [only], and a successful downhill test gives downhill [only]. Chicago Bridge & Iron used to test their tank welders using a large 6G coupon, and the welder had to weld one side up and one side down. After that, they were qualified in either direction of progression.
