Subject: [MW:9214] Welder Qualification AWS D1.1
Hi There,
Code: AWS D1.1
As per paragraph C4.1.3.1 …….The qualification remains in effect (1) for six months beyond the date that the welder last used the welding process,….
Does this means the even the welder is welding on different codes as long as he’s using the same process, his qualification will still remains in effect as long as it is within the six months period? Assuming that the welder was qualified before to weld on AWS D1.1 code.
Many thanks,
Larry Zarate
