Standard W59 can be applied to carbon and low-alloy welded steel
\.What types of structures are covered in CSA Standard W59? -
ANSWERS-CSA Standard W59 covers statically- and cyclically-loaded
(repetitive loading) structures.
\.What is a low-hydrogen electrode? - ANSWERS-A low-hydrogen
electrode is an electrode that deposits weld metal with a specified
maximum limit of diffusible hydrogen.
\.What are the requirements for contractor certification? - ANSWERS-
When mandated in the contract or in the governing design Standard*,
all Contractors performing work under this Standard must be certified
to CSA W47.1 for welded fabrications.
,\.What welding processes are covered in CSA Standard W59? -

\.Does CSA Standard W59 specify requirements for stud welding? -
ANSWERS-Yes, Clause 6 has requirements for stud welding.
\.Does CSA Standard W59 contain provisions for pre-qualified joints? -
ANSWERS-Yes, Clause 10 has details for the geometry of joints that are
prequalified, provided
the welding procedures
\.What base metals can be welded under CSA Standard W59? -
ANSWERS-Welding Supervisor - the company's designated person(s)
directly responsible for ensuring that qualified tack welders, welders,
and welding operators weld in accordance with approved or accepted
welding procedure data sheets in the shop and the field.

- ANSWERS-Welding symbols shall be as shown in AWS Standard A2.4,
together with the additional conventions developed for CSA Standard
W59 and shown in Annex D of CSA Standard W59.
, \.What information should be given on a design drawing? - ANSWERS-A
design drawing should contain:
information for preparation of detail and erection drawings;
the effective throat thickness shall be defined, if there are partial
penetration groove welds.
\.What typical welding information would you expect to find on an
erection or detail drawing? - ANSWERS-A) location, type, size and length
of all welds:
B) distinguish between shop and field welds;
C) groove depths and joint preparations, if there are partial penetration
joints,together with the position of welding;
D) any notes required, e.g. welding sequence, control of distortion, etc..
\.What are the types of welds as specified in CSA Standard W59? -
ANSWERS-Welds are classified as groove, fillet, plug or slot welds.
\.What is a complete joint penetration (CJP) groove weld? - ANSWERS-A
CJP groove weld is one that has complete penetration and fusion of
weld and
base metal throughout the thickness of the joint.
