6、des, 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 Standards are
7、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 the gov
8、ernmental 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 deviations
9、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 adminis
10、ters theprocess and establishes rules to promote fairness in the development of consensus, it does not independently test, evalu-ate, or verify 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 propert
11、y, 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 guarantee or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any informationpublished h
12、erein.In issuing and making this standard available, AWS is neither undertaking to render professional or other services for oron behalf of any person or entity, nor is AWS undertaking to perform any duty owed by any person or entity to someoneelse. Anyone using these documents should rely on his or
13、 her own independent judgment or, as appropriate, seek theadvice of a competent professional in determining the exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances. It isassumed that the use of this standard and its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and competent personnel.This s
14、tandard may be superseded by new editions. This standard may also be corrected through publication of amendmentsor errata or supplemented by publication of addenda. Information on the latest editions of AWS standards includingamendments, errata, and addenda is posted on the AWS web page (www.aws.org
15、). Users should ensure that they have thelatest edition, amendments, errata, and addenda.Publication of this standard does not authorize infringement of any patent or trade name. Users of this standard acceptany and all liabilities for infringement of any patent or trade name items. AWS disclaims li
16、ability for the infringement ofany patent or product trade name resulting from the use of this standard.AWS does not monitor, police, or enforce compliance with this standard, nor does it have the power to do so.Official interpretations of any of the technical requirements of this standard may only
17、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, 8669 NW 36 St, # 130, Miami, FL 33166. With regard totechnical inquiries made concerning A
18、WS standards, oral opinions on AWS standards may be rendered. These opinionsare offered solely as a convenience to users of this standard, and they do not constitute professional advice. Suchopinions represent only the personal opinions of the particular individuals giving them. These individuals do
19、 not speakon behalf of AWS, nor do these oral opinions constitute official or unofficial opinions or interpretations of AWS. Inaddition, oral opinions are informal and should not be used as a substitute for an official interpretation.This standard is subject to revision at any time by the AWS requir
20、ed and should be addressed to AWS Headquarters.Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS B2 Committee on Procedure and Performance Qualification.It must be reviewed every five years, and if not revised, it must be either reaffirmed or withdrawn. Comments (recom-mendations, addition
21、s, or deletions) and any pertinent data that may be of use in improving this standard are required andshould be addressed to AWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS B2 Committeeon Procedure and Performance Qualification and the author of the comments will be inf
22、ormed of the Committeesresponse to the comments. Guests are invited to attend all meetings of the AWS required and should be addressed toAWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS B2 Committee on Procedure andPerformance Qualification to express their comments verb
23、ally. Procedures for appeal of an adverse decision concerningall such comments are provided in the Rules of Operation of the Technical Activities Committee.

ScopeThis publication is an extract of AWS B2.1/B2.1M:2014, Specification for Welding Procedure and Performance Qualifi-cation, and is identical to Annex C, Base Metal Grouping, in the 2014 edition of that stand
37、ard. This publication super-sedes AWS B2.1/B2.1M-BMG:2009-ADD1. Underlined text or a vertical line in the margin indicates a revision from the2009 edition.This publication may be referred to by other codes and standards that have welding procedure and performance require-ments in order to avoid dupl
38、ication of materials tables in those publications.Base metals and filler metals have been grouped into categories that will minimize the number of qualification testsrequired. Substitution of one base metal or filler metal for another, even when within the allowable rules, should only bemade after a
39、n evaluation of the factors involved. For some materials, additional tests may be required. Materials notlisted require separate qualification.2This page is intentionally blank.AWS B2.1/B2.1M-BMG:2014AWS B2.1/B2.1M-BMG:20143Annex C (Normative)Base Metal Grouping(see 3, 4.3.12, 4.3.15, and Table 5.3)
40、This annex is part of AWS B2.1/B2.1M-BMG:2014, Base Metal Grouping for Welding Procedureand Performance Qualification, and includes mandatory elements for use with this standard.C1. Base Metal SpecificationsTable C.1 indexes ASTM, ABS, API, AS, AS/NZS, CSA, AMS, ISO, NACE, and MSS base metals in num
41、erical orderto provide ease of reference when determining into what grouping a particular base metal specification falls.Table C.2 groups base metals for welding procedure and performance qualification on the basis of mechanical proper-ties, chemical composition, and metallurgical compatibility to m
42、inimize the number of welding qualification where thiscan logically be done.Table C.3 lists base metal specifications for iron castings in accordance with AWS D11.2 groups.C2. Material Number (M-Number) GroupingsBase metal has been divided into general categories, e.g., Material Numbers (M-Numbers)
43、1, 1A, 3, 3A, 4, 4A, etc., andfurther divided into groups within each general category.The category grouping does not imply that base metals may be substituted for other base metals within the same Mate-rial Number (M-Number) without consideration for weldability.C3.
