ASME Section IX doesn't tell the contractor "how to do anything" when it comes to the method of manufacturing. Matching filler metal, not addressed. Joint details, no recommendations in Section IX, but there is limited guidance in B16.25. Welding parameters, no guidance or limitations included in section IX. The list goes on, but I think you should see the limitations regarding recommendations on how something is welded or fabricated is not typically part of the ASME B&PV Codes.
