Foreword

(This Foreword is not a part of AWS B2.1-1-007:2002, Standard Welding Procedure Specification (SWPS) forGas Tungsten Arc Welding of Galvanized Steel (M-1), 18 through 10 Gauge, in the As-Welded Condition,

with or without Backing, but is included for informational purposes only.)

The American Welding Society and the Welding Research Council have joined in a cooperative effort to generatestandard welding procedures for industry. The need for pretested welding procedures that are supported by adequate testdata and that satisfy the technical requirements for the commonly used construction codes and specifications has beenexpressed by many individuals and organizations. The purpose of a welding procedure qualification is to provide testdata for assessing the properties of a weld joint.

This Standard Welding Procedure Specification is an outgrowth of the coordinated work of the Welding ProceduresCommittee of WRC and the Committee on Welding Qualification of the AWS. The Welding Procedures Committee hasprovided the test data documented on the Summary of Procedure Qualification Records, which are available from theWelding Research Council.

The welding terms used in this specification shall be interpreted in accordance with the definitions given in the latestedition of AWS A3.0, Standard Welding Terms and Definitions. Welding symbols shall be those shown in the latest editionof AWS A2.4, Standard Symbols for Welding, Brazing, and Nondestructive Examination.

The AWS B2 Committee on Welding Qualification was formed in 1979 to provide welding standards concerning thesubject of qualification. The primary document developed by this committee is AWS B2.1, Standard for Welding Procedureand Performance Qualification. This document established the foundation and framework for Standard Welding ProcedureSpecifications.

The first two Standard Welding Procedure Specifications were published in 1990. Since then SWPSs are continuingto be developed and published by the American Welding Society. This is the first revision of B2.1.007.

Comments and suggestions for the improvement of this standard are welcomed. They should be sent to the Secretary,AWS B2 Committee on Welding Qualification, American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, Miami, FL 33126.

Requirements forApplication of SWPSs

Scope. The data to support this Standard WeldingProcedure Specification (SWPS) have been derivedfrom the above listed Procedure QualificationRecords (PQRs) which were reviewed and validatedunder the auspices of the Welding Research Coun-cil. This SWPS is not valid using conditions and vari-ables outside the ranges listed. The AmericanWelding Society considers that this SWPS presentsinformation for producing an acceptable weld usingthe conditions and variables listed. The user needsa significant knowledge of welding and accepts fullresponsibility for the performance of the weld and forproviding the engineering capability, qualified per-sonnel, and proper equipment to implement thisSWPS.

Application. This SWPS is to be used only as per-mitted by the applicable fabrication document(s)[such as code, specification, or contract docu-ment(s)]. The fabrication document(s) should spec-ify the engineering requirements such as design,need for heat treatment, fabricating tolerances, qual-ity control, and examination and tests applicable tothe end product.

User’s Responsibility. A SWPS does not replaceor substitute for fabrication codes, specifications,

contract requirements, or capability and judgmenton the part of the user. A SWPS is to be used onlyas permitted by the applicable fabrication code,specification, or contract document.

The ability to produce production welds havingproperties suitable for the application depends uponsupplementing the SWPS with appropriate perfor-mance qualification tests and sound engineeringjudgment. The user is responsible for the quality andperformance of the final product in accordance withthe provisions of the fabrication document(s).

Supplementary Instructions. To adapt this SWPSto a specific application, a user may issue supple-mentary instructions. Such instructions may consistof tighter fit-up tolerances, higher minimum preheattemperature or any other instructions necessary toproduce a weldment that meets the requirements ofthe fabrication document(s). These instructions shallnot be less restrictive than provided in the SWPS.

Safety. Safety precautions shall conform to the lat-est edition of ANSI Z49.1, Safety in Welding, Cutting,and Allied Processes, published by the AmericanWelding Society.

This specification may involve hazardous mate-rials, operations, and equipment. The specificationdoes not purport to address all of the safety prob-lems associated with its use. It is the responsibility ofthe user to establish appropriate safety and healthpractices. The user should determine the applicabil-ity of any regulatory limitations prior to use.

A1. IntroductionThe AWS Board of Directors has adopted a policy

whereby all official interpretations of AWS standardswill be handled in a formal manner. Under that policy, allinterpretations are made by the committee that is respon-sible for the standard. Official communication concern-ing an interpretation is through the AWS staff memberwho works with that committee. The policy requires thatall requests for an interpretation be submitted in writing.Such requests will be handled as expeditiously as possi-ble, but due to the complexity of the work and the proce-dures that must be followed, some interpretations mayrequire considerable time.

A2. ProcedureAll inquiries must be directed to:

Managing Director, Technical ServicesAmerican Welding Society550 N.W. LeJeune RoadMiami, FL 33126

All inquiries must contain the name, address, and af-filiation of the inquirer, and they must provide enough in-formation for the committee to fully understand the pointof concern in the inquiry. Where that point is not clearlydefined, the inquiry will be returned for clarification. Forefficient handling, all inquiries should be typewritten andshould also be in the format used here.

A2.1 Scope. Each inquiry must address one single pro-vision of the standard, unless the point of the inquiry

involves two or more interrelated provisions. That provi-sion must be identified in the scope of the inquiry, alongwith the edition of the standard that contains the provi-sions or that the inquirer is addressing.

A2.2 Purpose of the Inquiry. The purpose of the inquirymust be stated in this portion of the inquiry. The purposecan be either to obtain an interpretation of a standardrequirement, or to request the revision of a particular pro-vision in the standard.

A2.3 Content of the Inquiry. The inquiry should beconcise, yet complete, to enable the committee to quicklyand fully understand the point of the inquiry. Sketchesshould be used when appropriate and all paragraphs, fig-ures, and tables (or the Annex), which bear on the in-quiry must be cited. If the point of the inquiry is to obtaina revision of the standard, the inquiry must provide tech-nical justification for that revision.

A2.4 Proposed Reply. The inquirer should, as a pro-posed reply, state an interpretation of the provision that isthe point of the inquiry, or the wording for a proposedrevision, if that is what inquirer seeks.

A3. Interpretation of Provisions of the Standard

Interpretations of provisions of the standard are madeby the relevant AWS Technical Committee. The secretaryof the committee refers all inquiries to the chairman ofthe particular subcommittee that has jurisdiction over theportion of the standard addressed by the inquiry. Thesubcommittee reviews the inquiry and the proposed replyto determine what the response to the inquiry should be.

Following the subcommittee’s development of the re-sponse, the inquiry and the response are presented to theentire committee for review and approval. Upon approvalby the committee, the interpretation will be an official in-terpretation of the Society, and the secretary will transmitthe response to the inquirer and to the Welding Journalfor publication.

A4. Publication of InterpretationsAll official interpretations will appear in the Welding

Journal.

A5. Telephone InquiriesTelephone inquiries to AWS Headquarters concerning

AWS standards should be limited to questions of a gen-eral nature or to matters directly related to the use of thestandard. The Board of Directors’ policy requires that allAWS staff members respond to a telephone request for

an official interpretation of any AWS standard with theinformation that such an interpretation can be obtainedonly through a written request. The Headquarters staffcannot provide consulting services. The staff can, how-ever, refer a caller to any of those consultants whosenames are on file at AWS Headquarters.

A6. The AWS Technical CommitteeThe activities of AWS Technical Committees in regard

to interpretations, are limited strictly to the interpretationof provisions of standards prepared by the committee orto consideration of revisions to existing provisions on thebasis of new data or technology. Neither the committeenor the staff is in a position to offer interpretive or con-sulting services on: (1) specific engineering problems, or(2) requirements of standards applied to fabrications out-side the scope of the document or points not specificallycovered by the standard. In such cases, the inquirer shouldseek assistance from a competent engineer experienced inthe particular field of interest.
