True
It is true, see QW-304 for the welder and QW-305
for the welding operator. The operator of SAW is
welding operator, he is not welder. SAW falls under
machine welding. See QW-492 also for the definition
of welding operator and machine welding.
False

Double sided weld is considered the weld with
backing, see QW-402.4. Backing is essential variable
for welder/welding operator, see QW-416.
With P1 backing only
27.
Yes
See QW-322.1(a)(1), his qualification expiry date
was July 1,1994. Since he has welded once in this
period from Jan 1, 1994 to July 1, 1994 so his expiry
extended to next 6 months, now his expiry date is
Jan 1, 1995. So he can weld with requalification on
October 7, 1994.
