The newly updated AWS D1.3/D1.3M:2008 - Structural Welding Code

If you're responsible for the welding of steel decks, panels, storage racks, and stud and joist framing members, to name a few applications, this code helps you to effect consistently sound welding of joints. One of the primary objectives of this code is to define the allowable capacities used in sheet steel applications in which the transfer of calculated load occurs. Includes allowable load capacities, details of welded connections, prequalification of WPSs, qualification, inspection, stud welding, and a helpful interpretive commentary. ANSI Approved. 76 pp.
