4 May a FCAW welder qualified using UT, be used to weld in production?
A. Yes, welder can be usedB. No welder cannot be usedC. Yes, if welder is using GMAW (Short Arc)D. Yes, if welder is qualified with backing

A. PQRB. WQRC. WPSD. WPQ
3 May a welder who qualified using a double-groove weld, make a single V-groove weld without backing?
A. YesB. NoC. Not enough information providedD. Yes, because backing is not an essential variable for a welder
6 A non-essential variable may be changes without requalification because:
A. Nobody cares about non-essential variablesB. The welder is allowed to change variables at his discretionC. Non-essential variables do not affect the mechanical or notch-toughness propertiesD. Non-essential variables cannot be changes without re-qualification
4 A repair organization has a WPS which states it is qualified for P-8 to P-8 material welded with E308, E308L, E309, E316, electrodes (SMAW process). The PQR, supporting this WPS, states the weld test coupons were SA-240 Type 304L material, welded with E308 electrodes.
A. YesB. NoC. Not enough information givenD. Yes, if properly heat treated
