Test Position
Before we proceed let us first understand various
test position in groove welds in plates, groove welds
in pipes and fillet weld in plates etc.
In general,
1G or 1F is called flat positions
2G or 2F is called horizontal and circumferential
3G or 3F is called vertical position
4G or4F is called overhead position

Test Position
Position 5G is only in welds in pipes. It is a
position when pipe axis is held horizontal and
circumferential seam is welded without rotating.
In a way it is combination of 1G, 3G & 4G.
Position 6G is also for the pipes when pipe axis is
at 45 deg. to horizontal plane and circumferential
seam is welded without rotating the pipe. It is
combination of all positions.

Refer fig.452.1,that gives performance qualification limits and type and number
of the test specimen required table. Fig 452.3 gives the diameter limits. It is
worth noting that one, two or more welders can be qualified on just one test
coupon. Each may be using even different processes.

QW-184 MACRO-EXAMINATION,
PERFORMANCE SPECIMENS
Visual examination of the cross section of the
weld metal and heat-affected zone shall show
complete fusion and freedom from cracks, except
that linear indications at the root not exceeding
1/32 in. (0.8 mm) shall be acceptable.
The weld shall not have a concavity or convexity
greater than 1/16 in. (1.5 mm)
There shall be not more than 1/8 in. (3 mm)
difference in the lengths of the legs of the fillet
