Dear Sirs

Pls advise .

AWS D1.1-Structural Welding Code-Steel
ASME IX - ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code

Current situation- Module Tubular Columns( 800mm in dia x 30mm thk ) at assembly stage ( Vertical Position -Butt weld in 2G position ).
Material - AWS Group II- ASTM A131-Grade EH36
Internal accessibility - Not allowed for safety reasons.
So Project suggest to use- Root Run using GTAW and Fill/Cap by FCAW

I want to prepare WPS combining -
1- PQR qualified in 6G position using GTAW in accordance with ASME IX ( Base Material- APL 5L X65 ( CVN at -46 deg C)
2- PQR qualified in 2G position using FCAW( with ceramic  Backing Strip ) in accordance with AWS D1.1.( Base Material - AWS Group II-EH36-CVN at -40 deg C)

Can i do it? Does the codes prohibit such combinations? Is there any code Interpretations on this subject?
