Check the "Certification Services" side of the AWS Website.

Thanks Jon,

I checked the AWS web site, and it only talks about AWS QC1....

did a search on yahoo.  this is what i came up with http://powerengbooks.com/booklsts/aws2.html  (look at 2nd to last item on the list)

tried a search on AWS publications, but the 1st page of about 10 search results did not find it.

Edit - while looking at the search results on yahoo, one of them mentioned that AWS B5.2 replaced QC-2.  Did another search on AWS bookstore for B5.2.  Seems to be what you're looking for.  https://www.awspubs.com/product_info.php?products_id=127&osCsid=241c7af6af66c85a573745e29b9be4fe

Thank you, tito

But, I have still a question, why doesn't AWS QC2 code appear in AWS website?

My guess would be that since it is superceded, that it is no longer in print, they don't advertise to sell it.

I believe your correct. I had to get it not to long back, I believe it was on IHS global

And, What does code supersede the AWS QC2?

I'm not sure the CFertification Committee has developed anything to replace QC-2 but new tito was correct, here is the qualification statement for the new version: Afternote, since this is company specific, there may not be any AWS Certification program anymore... this is speculation on my part but would make sense.

AWS B5.2 SPECIFICATION FOR THE QUALIFICATION OF WELDING INSPECTOR SPECIALISTS AND WELDING INSPECTOR ASSISTANTS
(2001) $48.00

This specification defines the requirements and program for an employer (company) to qualify Welding Inspector Specialists and Welding Inspector Assistants to contract or industry-specific inspector standards. The qualification program is developed and controlled by an employer. The qualification requires documentation of experience, training, and satisfactory completion of an examination. The examination tests knowledge of welding processes, welding procedures, welder qualification, destructive testing, nondestructive testing, terms, definitions, symbols, reports, records, safety, and responsibility as specifically applied by the contract or industry standards applicable to the employer.

OK, jon

I have been finding this QC-2, because the AWS D17.1:2001 specifies in 6.1.2 that code (AWS QC2). And I was confuse.

THANK YOU
