Dear Experts ,
 
If the wleder is  qualifide for 6G test , can he weld the plate of  unlimited thickness ?
or he needs to Qualify 4G test to weld unlimited thickness of plate ?
 
wether the 6G welder is sapose to weld only pipes.
 

awaiting for  welding experts valueable  suggestions ..........

Mr.Abdul ,
 
Your query is not clear ....Thickness qualification is  depends on weld cupon thickness , not depends on  Position ...
 
If the welder is qualified 6G Position then he can qualify any position but not any thickness..
 
Normally Sex IX , 2T is welder for thickness range qualification

Dear Mr.Abdul,
 
6G is for position. If he qualifies in 6G position, he can do welding in any position . Reference.....SecIX- QW-461.9
 
For thickness, upto 13 mm thickness , he qualifies 2T. Beyond 13 mm , unlimited thickness.  Reference..... Sec IX -QW-452.1(b)
 
Regards
 
Arvinda.

Dear abdul,
                if the welder qualifies in 6G position to maximum thickness (more than 13mm). that welder is qualified in 4G position on plate also upto maximum thickness.

Dear KHAN,
 
Position is not related with thickness qualified.
For unlimited thickness qualification please refer QW 452.1(b) in sec IX 2007.
