Welding Procedure Specification

1) This document provides a welding procedure specification for manual shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) of butt, tee, and lap joints in A-36 steel from 4.8mm to 38mm thick. 2) The filler metal is E7018 electrode with a diameter of 3.2mm. Welding parameters are 110-140 amps and 22-26 volts. Travel speed is 6-12 cm/min for the root and hot passes and fill and cap. 3) Joint preparation includes machining and grinding. Backing is allowed but not required. There are no preheat or post weld heat treatment requirements.
