6、ds (codes, specifications, recommended practices, methods, classifications, and guides) of the AmericanWelding Society (AWS) are voluntary consensus standards that have been developed in accordance with the rules of theAmerican National Standards Institute (ANSI). When AWS American National Standard
7、s are either incorporated in, ormade part of, documents that are included in federal or state laws and regulations, or the regulations of other govern-mental bodies, their provisions carry the full legal authority of the statute. In such cases, any changes in those AWSstandards must be approved by t
8、he governmental body having statutory jurisdiction before they can become a part ofthose laws and regulations. In all cases, these standards carry the full legal authority of the contract or other documentthat invokes the AWS standards. Where this contractual relationship exists, changes in or devia
9、tions from requirementsof an AWS standard must be by agreement between the contracting parties.AWS American National Standards are developed through a consensus standards development process that bringstogether volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve consensus. While AWS a
10、dministers the processand establishes rules to promote fairness in the development of consensus, it does not independently test, evaluate, orverify the accuracy of any information or the soundness of any judgments contained in its standards.AWS disclaims liability for any injury to persons or to pro
11、perty, or other damages of any nature whatsoever, whetherspecial, indirect, consequential or compensatory, directly or indirectly resulting from the publication, use of, or relianceon this standard. AWS also makes no guaranty or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any informationpublished

Such errata, when discovered, are postedon the AWS web page (www.aws.org).Official interpretatio
16、ns of any of the technical requirements of this standard may only be obtained by sending a request,in writing, to the appropriate technical committee. Such requests should be addressed to the American Welding Society,Attention: Managing Director, Technical Services Division, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, M

Such opinions represent only the

These individualsdo not speak on behalf of AWS, nor do these oral opinions constitute official or unofficial opinions or interpretations ofAWS. In addition, oral opinions are informal and should not be used as a substitute for an official
19、interpretation.This standard is subject to revision at any time by the AWS D1 Committee on Structural Welding. It must be reviewedevery five years, and if not revised, it must be either reaffirmed or withdrawn. Comments (recommendations, additions,or deletions) and any pertinent data that may be of
20、use in improving this standard are required and should be addressedto AWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS D1 Committee on StructuralWelding and the author of the comments will be informed of the Committees response to the comments. Guests areinvited to atten

This code is the product of a pool of experts arriving at a consensus position, in keeping with the AmericanNational Standard Institutes requirements.This code covers the requirements f
26、or welding stainless steel components other than pressure vessels or pressure piping.For many years, fabrications involving stainless steel welding have used AWS D1.1/D1.1M, Structural Welding CodeSteel, to provide the requirements for quality construction. However, as the AWS D1.1 document is writt
27、en for the car-bon and low alloy steels commonly encountered in structural fabrication, it does not explicitly address the unique re-quirements of the stainless steels. The AWS Structural Welding Committee thus recognized the industry need for anAWS D1.1 analogue designed for the welding of stainles
28、s steel wrought and cast shapes and plates.The most noticeable feature of D1.6 is the allowance of prequalified Welding Procedure Specifications (WPSs) for theaustenitic stainless steels. This exemption from qualification testing is based on considerable experience with the mostwidely used stainless
29、 steels.Underlined text in the subclauses, tables, or figures indicates an editorial or technical change from the 1999 edition. Avertical line in the margin next to a figure indicates a revision from the 1999 edition. Changes to Clause 2 are not indicatedin the chapter since the substantial reorgani
30、zation of Clause 2 makes it too difficult to identify technical changes.The following is a summary of the most significant technical revisions contained in D1.6/D1.6M:2007:Clause 1 was reorganized to add elements found within AWS D1.1/D1.1M.Terms specific to this code were added in 1.3 for clarity.R
31、esponsibilities of parties involved in structural welding were clarified in 1.4.Clause 2 was rewritten to bring its design requirements into closer accord with AWS D1.1/D1.1M.The fatigue provisions in Clause 2 were revised.Provisions for fillet welds and plug and slot welds were added to Table 2.1 a
32、nd 2.2.The provisions for fillet welds and plug and slot welds in holes and slots in Clause 2 were revised.A comprehensive suggested filler metal chart for various combinations of stainless steels and other ferrous base metalswas added as an annex.New commentary for Clause 2 was added.Comments and s
33、uggestions for the improvement of this standard are welcome. They should be sent to the Secretary,AWS D1 Committee on Structural Welding, American Welding Society, 550 N.W.
