Check out paragraphs 6.20.2 and K4. AUT is not allowed unless agreed to by the Engineer. I doubt that there is much of a market for AUT on structures built to D1.1, except for possibly tubular long. seams and girths and large shells. Most of the other product forms welded to D1.1 (girders, etc.) do not economically lend themselves to AUT.
