This specification covers requirements for resistance spot andseam welding of the following metals and their alloys.
Material Groups
(1) Group 1—Aluminum and magnesium
(2) Group 2—Steel, nickel, and cobalt
(3) Group 3—Titanium
Classification. Classification is based on thefollowing:
(1) Class A. A welded joint, whose failure during anyoperating condition would cause loss of the equipment or system orone of its major components.
(2) Class B. A welded joint whose failure would reducethe overall strength of the equipment or system or limit theintended functioning or use of equipment.
(3) Class C. A welded joint for which no stressanalysis is required and whose failure would not affect theperformance of the equipment or system.
Standard Units of Measure. This standard makesuse of both U.S. Customary Units and the International System ofUnits (SI). The latter are shown within brackets [ ] or inappropriate columns in tables and figures. The measurements may notbe exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be usedindependently.
Safety and Health. Safety and health issues andconcerns are beyond the scope of this standard, and therefore arenot fully addressed herein. Safety and health information isavailable from other sources, including, but not limited to, ANSIZ49.1, Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied Processes,and applicable federal and state regulations.
