Is is permisiable per AWSD1.6 to make a single sided CJP weld without a backing bar? Fabricator tells me that using an initial GTAW pass eliminates the need for backing and also for backgouging. Plate is typically 3/8" thick. Are there any additional testing or WPS requirements for this...
Research has indicated that AWS D1.6 is for welding SS. I do not have a copy of this code but have a few questions.
Is D1.6 a stand alone code like D1.1 or is it suppliment? Basically need to know if I should hold the fabricator to the requirements of D1.1 with additional supplements per...

Designing stainless steel fabricated structures and would like to know if anyone has experience with the following:
Accepted code for stainless steel design allowables. Currently using allowables similiar to AISC ASD i.e. 0.6Fy for calculated bending stresses and 0.66Fy for calculated...
Do not yet have copy of D1.6 but would appreciate help with the following. Note, all material is 316SS, all plate construction.
What filler metal should be specified?
What is the tensile strength of this filler?
Is the allowable shear stress for stainless welding calculated the same as carbon...

Would like this to be part of the output file and not require use of the post-processing tools. In the past use of script files exported to spreadsheets has...
