Dozens of updates to the Structural Welding Code - Steel make the 2006 edition indispensable for anyone designing, building, or inspecting steel structures and products.
What's in D1.1? For everyone involved in any phase of welding steel structures - engineers, detailers, fabricators, erectors, inspectors, etc. - the new 540-page edition of D1.1 spells out the requirements for design, procedures, qualification, fabrication, inspection, and repair. A wide range of projects, repairs, and product forms come under its authority, including pipe, plate, and structural shapes that are subject to either static or cyclical stresses.
The AWS D1.1/D1.1M includes:
Design of tubular and nontubular welded connections
Prequalification of welding procedures
Qualification of new procedures and personnel
Fabrication requirements, including base metals, consumables and tolerances
Inspection requirements and acceptance criteria for various examination methods
Stud welding design, production, and inspection requirements
Strengthening and repair of existing structures
An extensive commentary annex that provides time-saving interpretation
Dozens of valuable reference tables, charts, and forms
And much more
The power of D1.1 Working under strict ANSI procedures, the expert contributors and reviewers of D1.1 have built upon the solid work of hundreds of prior experts who, since its first edition in 1928, have labored virtually without pause to represent the most current practices. The result is a resource that provides a consensus of the finest minds in the industry on the best approaches to achieving a successful final outcome.
That's why D1.1 has been mandated by local, state, and overseas codes, approved by ANSI, adopted by the Defense Department, preferred by NASA, and required by contracts for countless industrial and construction applications.
