    Difference between ISO 2553 and AWS D1.1 welding symbols Last Updated On April 17, 2023 by Material Welding Welding symbols: ISO 2553 or AWS D1.1? where is the difference? Welding symbols are a visual representation of the welding process. There are two main types of welding symbols ISO 2553 and AWS 1.1. The main difference between these two types of welding symbols is the way in which the welds are represented. While both sets of symbols are used to indicate the same basic information, there are some key differences between them. ISO 2553 welding symbols. are mainly used in Europe, while AWS D1.1 welding symbols. are more common in North America, One of the biggest differences between the two symbol sets is that ISO 2553 uses European Union (EU) measurements, while AWS D1.1 uses American units. This can cause confusion for welders who are used to one set of symbols but have to work with projects that use the other symbol set. ISO 2553 vs. AWS D1.1 Welding Symbols: What’s the Difference? You have noticed the welding symbols on fabrication drawing and surely came through two different welding symbols standards as: 1. ANSI AWS A2.4: Symbols for Welding and Nondestructive Testing 2. ISO 2553: Welding and allied processes- Symbolic representation on drawings- Welded joints Above these are two welding symbol standards used around the world. The first one, AWS A2.4 used in Pacific Region- mainly in the USA, Gulf countries, and in many Asian Industries. ‘The second one Is ISO 2553:2019 used mainly in the UK/ EU, Australia, and many other fabrication companies in Asia that are working with EN/ ISO standards such as ISO 3834 EN 15085, EN 1090, etc. 1. In ISO 2553, the fillet weld sizes are displayed by Throat Size, ‘a’ (in millimeters), and the weld is placed on the arrow line side. The weld symbol is placed above the reference line.

In ISO 2558, the fillet weld sizes are displayed by Throat Size, ‘a’ (in millimeters), and the weld Is placed on the arrow line side. The weld symbol Is placed above the reference line. Again, AWS A2.4 is the opposite of that. In AWS A2.4, the weld on the other side of the arrow line is placed above the reference line. When the weld symbol Is placed above the reference line, the welding will be on the other side as per AWS A2.4. Also, AWS A2.4 does not use any dashed line along with the reference line. AWS
