Welding Symbols
Welding has evolved into a highly technical science, and information is conveyed to the
welder via the standard symbols shown in Figures 10.13 and 10.14. Note that the
reference line and the arrow are the only required elements of the symbol. The arrow
may be placed on the left or right hand side of the reference line, but the other elements,
when used, must be placed in the locations specified.
The welding symbols are intended as a convenient “short-hand” method of
conveying a lot of information in a little space. Welding information can also be indicated
via notes, details, specifications, and so on.
Drafting Practices for Piping

Piping Plans and Elevations
The most common piping drawing is the plan view, which shows an overhead layout
of the piping and its relationship to the surrounding structure and equipment. A good
scale for piping plans is 1/4” 1’-0”, but other scales are useful. For projects other than
cross-country piping, scales smaller than 1/8” 1’-0” are to be avoided. Too much
detail is lost at these small scales and elevations and details must be relied on to fill in
the missing information.
