Hello makeithot, when it comes to gaps, lands, bevels and other things having to do with fits on pipe or anything else, I typically observe these and take note of the result of these set-ups before I decide if I agree with the method. If a WPS can be qualified with these parameters then that's all that really matters. I would agree with you that I typically would not select this particular fit for welding myself, however that doesn't make it wrong. I would agree with your description for the fits that I have generally seen, knife edge, 3/32" gap, in my case no land, 1/8" filler, yet as I said everyone likely has their favorite set-up and if they can qualify it then they should be good to go. Great to hear from you, Regard, Allan
