6、 and guides) of the AmericanWelding Society are voluntary consensus standards that have been developed in accordance with the rules of the AmericanNational Standards Institute. When AWS standards are either incorporated in, or made part of, documents that are includedin federal or state laws and reg
7、ulations, or the regulations of other governmental bodies, their provisions carry the fulllegal authority of the statute. In such cases, any changes in those AWS standards must be approved by the governmentalbody having statutory jurisdiction before they can become a part of those laws and regulatio
8、ns. In all cases, these standardscarry the full legal authority of the contract or other document that invokes the AWS standards. Where this contractualrelationship exists, changes in or deviations from requirements of an AWS standard must be by agreement between thecontracting parties.International

It ha
23、s been compiled to aid welders andsupervisory personnel as well as design and construction engineers.The first all-welded ships were built just before World War II. During that war, over 4000 welded ships, including theLiberty ships and T2 tankers, were constructed under emergency conditions. When s
24、ome of these ships experienced majorstructural failures of the brittle-cleavage type, both government and industry undertook immediate and intensiveinvestigation and research. Most major failures started either in a defective groove weld in the deck or bottom shell, orat a sharp structural intersect
25、ion such as a square hatch corner, or some other abrupt change in structural cross-section,or lack of geometric continuity in the structure. Once started, the cracks progressed through the base metal and extendedfor considerable distances, in some cases across the deck and completely around the ship
26、.Attention was focused primarily on the influence of notches, weld quality, and the inherent notch toughnesscharacteristics of steel and weld metal regarding both crack initiation and crack propagation. As a result of the shipresearch, steels having greater notch toughness were specified by regulato
27、ry agencies, and special steels having superiornotch toughness were developed and specified for use in highly stressed areas. Design details were improved, and mainhull welds were subjected to subsurface inspection by radiographic and ultrasonic methods.To summarize this early research and developme
28、nt and to make appropriate recommendations relative to welding, theAmerican Welding Society published D3.5-62, Hull Welding Manual. Because of revisions to the regulatory agenciesrequirements, major developments in welding equipment and shipyard facilities, and the increased use of higher strengthan
29、d superior notch-tough steels in shipbuilding, AWS D3.5-76, Guide for Steel Hull Welding, was prepared to replacethe earlier manual. The ANSI/AWS D3.5-85 and ANSI/AWS D3.5-93 are updates of the previous Guide. The weldingof aluminum in ship construction is covered in ANSI/AWS D3.7-89, Guide for Alum
30、inum Hull Welding.Much commercial building in shipyards includes special purpose ships and mobile offshore drilling units. Tankers over30 times larger than the T2 tankers have been built. Todays container ships are as large as the largest ocean liners andhave the unusual feature of having most of th
31、eir strength decks open to facilitate container stowage. The large LNG(liquefied natural gas) carriers transport liquid cargo at approximately -260F (-160C).For further specific details relating to welding, refer to the rules of regulatory agencies, recommendations of the steeland welding equipment
