NOTES:
*The surfaces on which the weld metal is to be deposited must be uniform and free of burrs, scratches, cracks, and other
discontinuities that would adversely affect weld quality.
* Maximun electrode diameter per flat position 5/16" except root pass, horizontal 1/4", vertical 3/16" and overhead 3/16".
* Maximun single pass fillet weld size per flat position 3/8", horizontal 5/16", vertical 1/2" and overhead 5/16".
* Maximun root pass thickness per flat position 3/8", horizontal 5/16", vertical 1/2" and overhead 5/16". Neither the depth nor
the maximum width in the cross section of weld
* Maximun fill pass thickness 3/16".
* Perpendicularity of the members shall be within ±10° .
* The minimum fillet weld size shall apply in all cases, unless the design drawings specify welds of a larger size.
* The parts to be joined by fillet welds shall be brought into as close contact as practicable.
The root opening shall not exceed 3/16 in [5 mm] except in cases involving either shapes or plates 3 in [75 mm] or greater
in thickness if, after straightening and in assembly, the root opening cannot be closed sufficiently to meet this tolerance.
In such cases, a maximum root opening of 5/16 in [8 mm] may be used, provided suitable backing is used. Backing may
be of flux, glass tape, iron powder, or similar materials, or welds using a low-hydrogen process compatible with the filler
metal deposited. If the separation is greater than 1/16 in [2 mm], the legs of the fillet weld shall be increased by the
amount of the root opening, or the Contractor shall demonstrate that the required effective throat has been obtained.
