AWS B2.1-8-319 pdf free download.Standard Welding Procedure Specification for Naval Applications (SWPS-N) for Shielded Metal Arc Welding of Austenitic Stainless Steel (S-8), 1/8 inch [3 mm] through 1-1/2 inch [38 mm] Thick, MIL -3XX-XX, in the As-Welded Condition, Primarily Pipe for Naval Applications.
Supplementary Instructions. To adapt this SWPS-N to a specific application, a user may issue supplementary instructions. Such instructions may consist of tighter fit-up tolerances, higher minimum preheat temperature, or any other instructions necessary to produce a weidment that meets the requirements of the fabrication document(s). These instructions shall not be less restrictive than provided in the SWPS-N.
Nomenclature Caution. The base material S numbers appearing in this standard are base material groupings used for qualification purposes in NAVSEA Technical Publication S9074-AQ-GIB-O1O/248, just as M numbers in AWS B2. l/B2M and P numbers in the ASME Pressure Vessel Code are material groupings. The S numbers in this standard are different from and not to be confused with the S number nomenclature that has been used in the ASME Pressure Vessel Code. The P number joint designations and P piping classifications in this standard have no association with the ASME P number material groupings. The bA number suffix letter filler metal grouping in this standard is that included in NAVSEA Technical Publication S9074-AQ-G113-0101248 and should not be confused with the A number weld metal groupings included in AWS B2. 112.1 M or in ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section L Welding, Brazing, and Fusing Qua4flcations.
Standard Units of Measure. This standard makes use of both U.S. Customary Units and the International System of Units (SI). The latter are shown within brackets ([1) or in appropriate columns in tables and figures. The measurements may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently.
Safety. Safety and health issues and concerns arc beyond the scope of this standard and therefore are not addressed herein. Safety and health information is available from the following sources:
American Welding Society:
(1) ANSI Z49. 1, Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied Processes
(2) AWS Safety and health Fact Sheets
(3) Other safety and health information on the AWS website Material or Equipment Manufacturers:
(I) Safety Data Sheets supplied by materials manufacturers
(2) Operating Manuals supplied by equipment manufacturers Applicable Regulatory Agencies:
Work performed in accordance rith this standard may involve the use of materials that have been deemed hazardous, and may involve operations or equipment that may cause injury or death. This standard does not purport to address all safety and health risks that may be encountered. The user of this standard should establish an appropriate safety program to address such risks as well as to meet applicable regulatory requirements. ANSI Z49. I should be considered when developing the safety program.Defects in welds shall be removed by mechanical or arc gouging methods and the excavation inspected per the fabrication document. The repair cavity may differ in contour and dimension from a normal joint preparation and may present different restraint conditions. Repair of base metal defects shall be in accord- ance with the requirements of the fabrication document(s).AWS B2.1-8-319 pdf download.
