APPENDIX B — NONMANDATORY WELDING AND BRAZING FORMS
B-100 FORMS
Form QW-484 is a suggested format for Welder / Welding Operator /Performance Qualification (WPQ) for groove or fillet welds. Form QW-485 is a suggested format for Demonstration of Standard Welding Procedure Specifications. B-102 B-101 Welding Form QW-482 is a suggested format for Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS); Form QW-483 is a suggested format for Procedure Qualification Records (PQR). These forms are for the shielded metal-arc (SMAW), submerged-arc (SAW), gas metal-arc (GMAW), and gas tungsten-arc (GTAW) welding processes, or a combination of these processes. Forms for other welding processes may follow the general format of Forms QW-482 and QW-483, as applicable. Brazing

This Nonmandatory Appendix illustrates sample formats for Welding and Brazing Procedure Specifications, Procedure Qualification Records, and Performance Qualification.

Form QB-482 is a suggested format for Brazing Procedure Specifications (BPS); Form QB-483 is a suggested format for Procedure Qualifications Records (PQR). These forms are for torch brazing (TB), furnace brazing (FB), induction brazing (IB, resistance brazing (RB), and dip brazing (DB) processes. Forms for other welding processes may follow the general format of Forms QW-482 and QW-483, as applicable. Form QB-484 is a suggested format for Brazer / Brazing Operator /Performance Qualification (BPQ).
