AWS D1.5 is a code for bridges.
Less prequalified proceedures and processes.
A lot more qualifying has to be done.
Weldor qualification is about the same, it is more restrictive of the test in that only hand cleaning tools can be used and the test weld cannot be moved from start to finish.
Good Luck

Chris-
Just curious, but is the job you are looking at a production or inspection job?
The reason I ask is your comment about they want someone to be certified in D1.5 within a year.
If it is for a welding position, certification happens much faster than that.
If it is for inspection work, then the NDT method they are desiring may the the "within a year" statement.
