Is it acceptable to use D1.1 prequalified structural joints when using D14.1 Material Handling code? Thanks

In looking at my copy of D14.1, the Figure 6 prequalified joint details appear to be the same as the D1.1 prequal joints. However, I did not make a side by side comparison and I did not read through the rest of the code.
Also, D14.1 Section 4.10, on Joint Qualification, does not mention D1.1 joint details as being acceptable.
To be safe, I would advise you to follow the D14.1 details and consider any identical D1.1 details as coincidental, at least for the time being.

Chet,
Your are correct. We got the official rule today and the answer was no, it is not acceptible. Thanks, Mike
