Latest version.
- Groove welds shall completely penetrate the thickness of the material being welded. If possible, welding shall be applied from both sides of the plate or a backing strip or ring may be used to ensure complete penetration. Manually applied welds shall have a convex surface on both sides if applied on both sides of the plates being joined, or on one side if welding is applied from one side only. Valleys and undercutting at edges of welded joints are not permitted. The reinforcement may be chipped, ground, or machined off flush with the base metal, if so desired, after the welding has been completed.
