[MW:3859] Clarification on range of qualification as per AWS D1.1

Dear Members,
 
I have a query related to welder qualification for TKY joints as per Table 4.11 and Fig 4.27 - AWS D1.1
 
1. Can we use a pipe with thickness less than 12mm or 0.5" during welder qualification. What is the minimum thickness allowed per code.
 (Since the specified thickness is nominal, may i use a pipe with thickness less upto 12.5% - Material SA 106 GrB)
 
2. If welder is qualified in Group 1, can he weld Group 2 & 3 .
 
 
 
Thanks and regards
