For D1.2 Fillet Welder Performance Qualification Figure 3.32 shows the test assembly to be 4ā X 8ā, I do not see a minimum specified anywhere as is indicated on the groove weld test assemblies.
My dilemma is that I ordered material for weld testing coupons and the Machine shop mistakenly beveled all of the plates, when they should have only beveled half of the quantity. So no Iām not sure that I can use this material for the fillet welds because the plate have this bevel on 1 side each.
I'm thinking that as long as I put the beveled edges to the outside of test assembly, that i should be ok.
I'm not sure if i can defend this if an Auditor challenges that the the actual test assembly is different that the D1.2 Fillet Welder Performance Qualification Figure 3.32.
I'm looking for facts and opinions to help me with a little dilemma.
