Describe the four basic plate welding positions for grooves and fillet welds.
What will be an ideal response?
The American Welding Society has divided plate welding into four basic positions for grooves (G) and fillet (F) welds as follows:
*Flat 1G or 1F-When welding is performed from the upper side of the joint, and the face of the weld is approximately horizontal.
*Horizontal 2G or 2F-The axis of the weld is approximately horizontal, but the type of the weld dictates the complete definition. For a fillet weld, welding is performed on the upper side of an approximately vertical surface. For a groove weld, the face of the weld lies in an approximately vertical plane.
*Vertical 3G or 3F-The axis of the weld is approximately vertical.
*Overhead 4G or 4F-When welding is performed from the underside of the joint.
