A welding procedure data sheet (WPDS) is a document, used in conjunction with a WPS, detailing the welding parameters and ranges for welding a specific joint, over a range of thicknesses and weld sizes, as illustrated on the data sheet.
Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) PDF Guide
This file is a Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) that provides detailed instructions for welding procedures, joint design, base metals, filler metals, and more.
This specification provides the requirements for qualification of welding procedure specifications, welders, and welding operators for manual, semiautomatic, mechanized, and automatic welding.
This document specifies how a preliminary welding procedure specification is qualified by welding procedure tests. This document applies to production welding, repair welding and build-up welding.
Specification and qualification of welding procedures for metallic materials - Welding procedure test - Part 1: Arc and gas welding of steels and arc welding of nickel and nickel alloys (ISO 15614-1:2004)
These General Welding Guidelines are intended to provide background information and supplementary instructions to contractors and their welders who are using National Certified Pipe Welding Bureau Welding Procedures Specifications (WPSs).
