Title
Specification for Welding of Rotating Elements of Equipment
American Welding Society
Publication Date:
Jan 1, 2005
Scope:
This specification establishes minimum acceptable requirements for
weld joint detail and
fabrication by welding of rotating elements in new equipment. This
specification also applies to
the modification or repair by welding of rotating elements in existing
equipment. Equipment types
covered by this specification include, but are not limited to:
crushers, fans, gears, crankshafts,
flywheels, centrifugal impellers, kilns, air moving devices, and
blowers. The intent of this
specification is not to include steam or combustion turbine rotors or
blading, camshafts, or power
transmission shafts. This specification also applies to such products
and procedures that are
agreed to by the Manufacturer, Fabricator, or Repair Organization and
the Owner.
Requirements contained herein are not intended to nullify or void the
requirements of any law or
governmental agency regulation or other codes applied to components.
Additional requirements may be
invoked by contract documents. The specification establishes the
minimum acceptable practice at the
time of its publication. It is not intended to restrict new
developments or in any way to inhibit
advances in the art and science of welding.
This specification is intended to promote the following:
(1) High quality construction and repair of welded rotating elements
of equipment,
(2) Adequate initial and sustained performance of welded rotating
elements of equipment,
(3) Personnel safety,
(4) Clear, concise fabrication practices that will be readily
understood by the Manufacturer,
Fabricator, or Repair Organization, Fabricator, Owner, and user, and
(5) Conservation of human and material resources in the fabrication of
welded rotating elements of
equipment.
This specification makes use of both U.S. Customary Units and the
International System of Units
(SI). These measurements may not be exact equivalents; therefore each
system must be used
independently of the other without combining in any way. The
specification with the designation
D14.6 uses U.S. Customary Units. The specification D14.6M uses SI
Units. The latter are shown in
appropriate columns in tables or within brackets [ ] when used in the
text.
Safety and health issues and concerns are beyond the scope of this
standard, and therefore are not
fully addressed herein. Safety and health information is available
from other sources, including,
but not limited to ANSI Z49.1, Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied
Processes, and applicable
federal and state regulations.
