[MW:9006] Re: Groove weld qualification for fillet weld

Dear Manpreet,

For Welder Qualification as per Section IX there is no variable for
Impact . As far as base metal is concerend the only variable is 403.16
& 403.18 in case of SMAW.

As per below extract from ASME Section IX:

QW-303.1 Groove Welds — General. Welders and welding operators who
pass the required tests for groove
welds in the test positions of table QW-461.9 shall be qualified for
the positions of groove welds and fillet welds
shown in table QW-461.9. In addition, welders and welding operators
who pass the required tests for groove welds
shall also be qualified to make fillet welds in all thicknesses and
pipe diameters of any size within the limits of the
welding variables of QW-350 or QW-360, as applicable

Best Regards,
