AWS publishes Standard Welding Procedure Specifications (SWPSs), which are reviewed and validated by the
Welding Procedures Committee of the Welding Research Council. They are balloted through the AWS standards-
development program as American National Standards. Standard Welding Procedure Specifications may be used
on work covered by the AWS D1.1, Structural Welding Code—Steel with the engineer’s approval. The National Board
Inspection Code has adopted all pipe SWPSs except B2.1-1-202 and B2.1-1-312. SWPSs with red order numbers
may be used on ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel work with additional requirements spelled out in Section IX of
ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code. All licenses are good for unlimited intracompany applications.

presentations describing some of the common design considerations needed for selecting a thermal spray coating as well as
typical examples of success and failure in the design process. These presentations were recorded at the 4th ITSA Conference
held in Las Vegas, Nevada in April of 2012. The ITSA 2012 Virtual Conference offers convenient access to 15 video presentations
totaling about four hours of educational content. Cost is $185 for AWS members or $210 for nonmembers for 30 days of unlim-
