Abstract
This code covers the welding requirements for any type of welded structure made from the commonly used carbon and
low-alioy constructional steels. Sections 1 through 8 constitute a body of rules for the regulation of welding in steel con-
struction. This edition is a reorganized version of previous codes; many provisions have been deleted as redundant, others
have been consolidated in new sections. Several provisions in the text have been replaced by tables. Previous users of
this code are encouraged to re-familiarize themselves with code provisions. There are twelve mandatory and twelve non-
mandatory annexes in this code. A Commentary of the code is included with the document.

Statement on Use of AWS Standards
All standards (codes, specifications, recommended practices, methods, classifications, and guides) of the American
Welding Society are voluntary consensus standards that have been developed in accordance with the rules of the Ameri-
can National Standards Institute. When AWS standards are either incorporated in, or made part of, documents that are
included in federal or state laws and regulations, or the regulations of other governmental bodies, their provisions carry
the full legal authority of the statute. In such cases, any changes in those AWS standards must be approved by the gov-
ernmental body having statutory jurisdiction before they can become a part of those laws and regulations. In all cases,
these standards carry the full legal authority of the contract or other document that invokes the AWS standards. Where
this contractual relationship exists, changes in or deviations from requirements of an AWS standard must be by agree-
ment between the contracting parties.

With regard to technical inquiries made concerning AWS standards, oral opinions on AWS standards may be rendered.
However, such opinions represent only the personal opinions of the particular individuals giving them. These individuals
do not speak on behalf of AWS, nor do these oral opinions constitute official or unofficial opinions or interpretations of
AWS. In addition, oral opinions are informal and should not be used as a substitute for an official interpretation.
This standard is subject to revision at any time by the AWS Structural Welding Committee. It must be reviewed every
five years and if not revised, it must be either reapproved or withdrawn. Comments (recommendations, additions, or de-
letions) and any pertinent data that may be of use in improving this standard are requested and should be addressed to
AWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS Structural Welding Committee and
the author of the comments will be informed of the Committee’s response to the comments. Guests are invited to attend
all meetings of the AWS Structural Welding Committee to express their comments verbally. Procedures for appeal of an
adverse decision concerning all such comments are provided in the Rules of Operation of the Technical Activities Corn-
mittee. A copy of these Rules can be obtained from the American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, Miami,
