AWS-D1.1 - Structural Welding
Code - Steel
| Purpose: |
AWS D1.1 contains weld specifications for welding of steel
structures. The following is an excerpt from the introduction and
scope of AWS D1.1:
This code contains the requirements for fabricating
and erecting welded steel structures. When this code is stipulated
in contract documents, conformance with all provisions of the code
shall be required, except for those provisions that the Engineer
(see 1.4.1) or contract documents specifically modifies or exempts.
The following is a summary of the code sections:
1. General Requirements. This section contains
basic information on the scope and limitations of the code.
2. Design of Welded Connections.
This section contains requirements for the design of welded connections
composed of tubular, or nontubular, product form members.
3. Prequalification. This section
contains the requirements for exempting a WPS (Welding Procedure
Specification) from the qualification requirements of this code.
4. Qualification. This section contains
the qualification requirements for WPSs and welding personnel (welders,
welding operators and tack welders) necessary to perform code work.
5. Fabrication. This section contains
the requirements for the preparation, assembly and workmanship of
welded steel structures.
6. Inspection. This section contains
criteria for the qualifications and responsibilities of inspectors,
acceptance criteria for production welds, and standard procedures
for performing visual inspection and NDT (nondestructive testing).
7. Stud Welding. This section contains
the requirement for the welding of studs to structural steel.
8. Strengthening and Repair of Existing
Structures. This section contains basic information pertinent
to the welded modification or repair of existing steel structures.
