Hello, I have two (2) questions that I can't confidently answer, that I was hoping someone could give me some guidance on.
If a fabricator wanted to use a pre qualified SMAW WPS and their welders have passed a test with a certification card that shows it was conducted IAW Clause 4 part C of D1.1:2010. Can they work under the new Prequalified procedures of their new employers PWPS or do they have to re qualify using the new PWPS welding conditions, even if they are within the limitations of the essential variables of their current certification?
And if they are "AWS Certified" in a process (SMAW 6G) don't they still have to test to the employers WPS, even if they are within the limitations of the Welder Performance Essential Variables?
Thank you!
Nathan
