AWS Prequalified Fillet Welds -- Where can I get a joint designation for fillet welds? (D1.6)
AWS Prequalified Fillet Welds -- Where can I get a joint designation for fillet welds? (D1.6)
(OP)
We typically do jobs per ASME, but recently got one from a customer that requires us to use AWS D1.6 codes and procedures. I'm currently going through the drawings to see what prequalified joints will apply. I am finding groove welds with ease (even though some of the requirements are flat out stupid....FCAW double bevel can only be welded overhead?) but I'm not sure what to do with all of the fillet welds

A skewed T-joint with a dihedral angle less than 80 degrees or more than 100 degrees must be given some additional consideration. A sketch of the joint may be preferable to a welding symbol when Z-loss must be considered.
