I am trying to see if anyone can guide me in the right direction in regards to AWS standards. I am looking to see if there is any WPS for spot, stud, and weld neck welding. Anything helps! Thanks in advance.
 
If your application is structural, you'll want to work out of AWS D1.6.
If your material is true sheet (< ~1/4") and not structural (architectural, HVAC, etc) you might try AWS D1.9 which is base-metal agnostic and covers all kinds of welds.
 
D1.9 is for structural titanium.

Best regards - Al
 
Material is 18ga. I do not believe it is structural if it is for an enclosure.

Please forgive the lack of information, I am new to this industry so it will take me a while to get used to it.
 
Sorry gtaw, I meant D9.1, not 1.9.
 
Thank you for the input guys. As soon as I can get my hands on this then I can post an update. I appreciate the help!
