This document discusses the location of test specimens for welder qualification tests of pipelines and related facilities. It shows figures depicting where specimens should be taken from welds for testing, including two from the crotch of a joint and two at 90 degrees to the crotch. For smaller diameter pipes, specimens are taken from two test welds in similar locations. Figure 11 further specifies the locations and sizes of specimens for testing fillet welds and size-to-size branch connection welds.
