Can repair be within 2" of existing repair, or how many are allowed and the distance between?

What code, what material?

Assuming D1.1, then refer to section 5.26. No specific limitations on the number of repairs. But 5.26.3 Engineer's Approval, will always be a tough one. Good practice would be to qualify the number of repairs (N) first to ensure the weld quality after the N times of repair is acceptable.
