New 2011 Edition available for AWS D1.4 / D1.4M Structural Welding Code – Reinforcing Steel

AWS D1.4 / D1.4M 2011 Edition, Structural Welding Code – Reinforcing Steel, is now available.  The new 85 page Code covers welding of reinforcing steel in most reinforced concrete applications.

Sections include allowable stresses, structural details, workmanship requirements, technique, procedure and performance qualification, and inspection. Figures clearly illustrate important welding considerations: unacceptable weld profiles, effective weld sizes, details of joints of anchorage, base plates, and inserts.

AWS D1.4 / D1.4M 2011 Edition now addresses precast concrete components.  Clarification is provided on prequalified details and essential variables for fillet welds. And a new table illustrates acceptance criteria for macro tech tests.
