Re: [MW:5473] Welder Qualification in 2G - 3G

Frined,

As per AWS D1.1, table 4.1, if WPS is qualified in 2G position, it can be used for welding in 1G and 2G positions only.

WPS qualified in 2G positions cannot be used for welding in 3G position or qualifying welders in 3G positions.

Regards.

John

I have a query as below.
 
Our customer had establised a WPS/PQR  in 2G position - 16 mm thk plate.
 
They want qualification test for welders in 3G position (6mm Thk Plate), Can we allow the same?
 
Electrode: E7018
Coupen : IS 2062 Gr. B plate
Ref. Code : AWS D1.1
 
Regards,
Checks
