The Sample Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) Form of AWS D1.4/D1.4M:2018-AMD1 (Annex A) records a welding procedure: the WPS number, contractor, who authorized it, the revision number, the supporting PQR identification and the test date. It covers the welding process (FCAW-S, FCAW-G, GMAW, SMAW or GTAW), the weld type (groove or fillet), the joint type (direct butt, indirect butt or T-joint), the joints qualified (see Table 8.3), position, groove type, root opening, root face, groove angle, backing and backgouging. It then records the technique, electrical characteristics and transfer mode, the base metal (material specification, grade, maximum carbon equivalent, bar size, plate thickness and any coating), the filler metal (AWS specification and classification), shielding gas, preheat and interpass temperature, and the welding parameters for each pass, including amperage, volts, travel speed and electrical stickout.
