Free sample question from ASME IX
A welder passes the required groove weld test under ASME Section IX. What fillet welding qualification follows?
- A. Only the size tested
- B. Fillet welds in the thicknesses tested only, with larger sizes requiring a separate fillet weld test
- C. Fillet welds on pipe of 2 7/8 in. outside diameter and over, but not on smaller diameters
- D. Fillet welding at any thickness, on pipe of any diameter ✓
- E. No fillet weld qualification, since groove and fillet performance qualifications are entirely separate
Passing the groove test carries fillet welding with it -- any thickness, any pipe diameter -- bounded only by the essential variables in QW-350 or QW-360. ASME BPVC Section IX, QW-303.1
