8、ry consensus standards that have been developed in accordance with the rules of theAmerican National Standards Institute (ANSI). When AWS American National Standards are either incorporated in, ormade part of, documents that are included in federal or state laws and regulations, or the regulations o
9、f other governmen-tal bodies, their provisions carry the full legal authority of the statute. In such cases, any changes in those AWS standardsmust be approved by the governmental body having statutory jurisdiction before they can become a part of those laws andregulations. In all cases, these stand
10、ards carry the full legal authority of the contract or other document that invokes theAWS standards. Where this contractual relationship exists, changes in or deviations from requirements of an AWS standard must be by agreement between the contracting parties.AWS American National Standards are deve
11、loped through a consensus standards development process that brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve consensus. While AWS administers the process and establishes rules to promote fairness in the development of consensus, it does not independently test,evalu
12、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 property, or other damages of any nature whatsoever, whether spe-cial, indirect, consequential, or compensatory, directly or indirectly
13、resulting from the publication, use of, or reliance onthis standard. AWS also makes no guarantee or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any information publishedherein.In issuing and making this standard available, AWS is neither undertaking to render professional or other services for or
14、on 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 her own independent judgment or, as appropriate, seek theadvice of a competent professional in determining the exercise of rea
15、sonable 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this standard and its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and competent personnel.This standard may be superseded by new editions. This standard may also be corrected through publication of amend-ments or errata, or
16、 supplemented by publication of addenda. Information on the latest editions of AWS standards includ-ing amendments, errata, and addenda is posted on the AWS web page (www.aws.org). Users should ensure that they havethe latest edition, amendments, errata, and addenda.Publication of this standard does
17、 not authorize infringement of any patent or trade name. Users of this standard accept anyand all liabilities for infringement of any patent or trade name items. AWS disclaims liability for the infringement of anypatent or product trade name resulting from the use of this standard.AWS does not monit
18、or, 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 be obtained by sending a request,in writing, to the appropriate technical committee. Such requests should be addressed to
19、the American Welding Society,Attention: Managing Director, Technical Services Division, 8669 Doral Blvd., Suite 130, Doral, FL 33166 (see AnnexF). With regard to technical inquiries made concerning AWS standards, oral opinions on AWS standards may be ren-dered. These opinions are offered solely as a
20、 convenience to users of this standard, and they do not constitute professionaladvice. Such opinions represent only the personal opinions of the particular individuals giving them. These individualsdo not speak on behalf of AWS, nor do these oral opinions constitute official or unofficial opinions o
21、r interpretations ofAWS. In addition, 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 D14 Committee on Machinery and Equipment. It must bereviewed every five years, and if not revised, it mus
22、t be either reaffirmed or withdrawn. Comments (recommendations,additions, or deletions) and any pertinent data that may be of use in improving this standard are required and should beaddressed to AWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS D14 Committee onMachinery
23、and Equipment and the author of the comments will be informed of the Committees response to the com-ments. Guests are invited to attend all meetings of the AWS D14 Committee on Machinery and Equipment to expresstheir comments verbally. Procedures for appeal of an adverse decision concerning all such
24、 comments are provided in theRules of Operation of the Technical Activities Committee.

26、cording and maintaining results of all welding procedure and welder performance qualification tests;(5) controlling use of designated base metals and welding consumables;(6) inspecting the welds to the requirements of this specification;(7) having a welding quality program in place. The requirements
27、 of AWS B5.17, Specification for the Qualification ofWelding Fabricators may be used as a guide in establishing this welding quality program. Accreditation of quality systemsof welding fabricators may be obtained through the AWS Certified Welding Fabricator (CWF) or equivalent programs.1.2 Units of
28、Measure. This specification makes use of both U.S. Customary Units and the International System of Units(SI). The measurements may not be exact equivalents; therefore each system must be used independently of the otherwithout combining them in any way. The specification with the designation D14.9 us
29、es U.S. Customary Units. Thespecification D14.9M uses SI Units. The latter are shown in appropriate columns in tables and figures or within brackets when used in the text. Detailed dimensions on figures are in inches. A separate tabular form that relates the U.S.Customary Units with SI units may be
30、used in tables and figures.1.3 Safety. Safety and health issues and concerns are beyond the scope of this standard, and therefore are not fullyaddressed herein. Safety and health information is available from the following sources:American Welding Society:(1) ANSI Z49.1, Safety in Welding, Cutting,

33、ered. The user of this standard should establish an appropriate safety program toaddress such risks as well as to meet applicable regulatory requirements. ANSI Z49.1 should be considered when devel-oping the safety program.1.4 Symbols. Welding symbols shown on drawings shall be compatible with those
34、 shown in AWS A2.4, StandardSymbols for Welding, Brazing, and Nondestructive Examination.
