Selection of Welding Rod

The document lists American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC)-approved structural steels and their prequalified matching filler metals for shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), flux-cored arc welding (FCAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), and submerged arc welding (SAW) processes. It groups the steels into four categories based on their strength levels and provides the filler metal specifications that are prequalified to weld each group in accordance with the American Welding Society (AWS) standard.
