AWS D1.1 Ed. 2010. PREQUALIFIED WPS FOR B-U2 JOINT DESIGNATION ( Single V groove weld with SMAW)
AWS D1.1 Ed. 2010. PREQUALIFIED WPS FOR B-U2 JOINT DESIGNATION ( Single V groove weld with SMAW)
(OP)
Good afternoon, please:
Can I have a prequalified WPS for the "subject" joint ( see Figure 3.4 of D1.1), considering 3.13.2 of AWS d1.1 and that this joint has been welded in the two different following manners but and in both cases without steel backing? ( joint is non tubular) :
1- welded only from one side?
2- welded only from one side, BUT with a "seal Weld" from the other one ( there was access to the root side)
Bevel preparation is a V one.
Thanks,

You could qualify the weld by testing if you want.
