    5.23 Weld Profiles: AWS D1.1/D1.1M:2015 Clause 5. Fabrication

    Uploaded by

    Rohit Kamble
    This document provides requirements for fabrication including weld profiles, techniques for plug and slot welds, and weld repairs. It specifies that welds must meet visual acceptance criteria and be free of defects like cracks or overlaps. It describes techniques for plug welds in flat, vertical, and overhead positions which involve starting the arc at the root and depositing layers in a spiral pattern. Slot welds use similar techniques but additional requirements apply for longer slots. The contractor can elect to repair or replace unacceptable welds, and any repairs must meet the same acceptance criteria.
