If a material is not listed in B2.1, what type of testing is required to qualify the base metal?

I do not believe the base metal to be welded and qualified has to be listed in B2.1. However, if it is not listed, it does not have a M number assigned to it, thus the procedure qualified is lilely to be limited to the base metal used to qualify the procedure.

Good luck - Al

I am curious what is your base metal? 
Is your base metal listed in ASME IX?
