6、l standards (codes, specifications, recommended practices, methods, classifications, and guides) of the AmericanWelding Society (AWS) are voluntary consensus standards that have been developed in accordance with the rules ofthe American National Standards Institute (ANSI). When AWS American National

7、 Standards are either incorporatedin, or made part of, documents that are included in federal or state laws and regulations, or the regulations of othergovernmental bodies, their provisions carry the full legal authority of the statute. In such cases, any changes inthose AWS standards must be approv

8、ed by the governmental body having statutory jurisdiction before they canbecome a part of those laws and regulations. In all cases, these standards carry the full legal authority of the contractor other document that invokes the AWS standards. Where this contractual relationship exists, changes in o

9、r devi-ations from requirements of an AWS standard must be by agreement between the contracting parties.AWS American National Standards are developed through a consensus standards development process that bringstogether volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve consensus. Wh

10、ile AWS administers theprocess and establishes rules to promote fairness in the development of consensus, it does not independently test,evaluate, or verify the accuracy of any information or the soundness of any judgments contained in its standards.AWS disclaims liability for any injury to persons

17、andard may only be obtained by sending a request,in writing, to the appropriate technical committee. Such requests should be addressed to the American Welding Society,Attention: Managing Director, Technical Services Division, 8669 NW 36 St, # 130, Miami, FL 33166 (see Annex A).With regard to technic

18、al inquiries made concerning AWS standards, oral opinions on AWS standards may be rendered.These opinions are offered solely as a convenience to users of this standard, and they do not constitute professionaladvice.

In addition, oral opinions are informal and should not be used as a substitute for an official interpretation.This standard is subject to revision

20、 at any time by the AWS D8 Committee on Automotive Welding. It must bereviewed every five years, and if not revised, it must be either reaffirmed or withdrawn. Comments (recommenda-tions, additions, or deletions) and any pertinent data that may be of use in improving this standard are required andsh

21、ould be addressed to AWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS D8Committee on Automotive Welding and the author of the comments will be informed of the Committees responseto the comments. Guests are invited to attend all meetings of the AWS D8 Committee on Automot

31、cess is covered in AWS D8.8-97/SAE HS J1196, Specification for Automotive and Light Truck ComponentsWeld QualityArc Welding and D8.8M: 2007 Specification for Automotive Weld Quality-Arc Welding of Steel. Recentchanges in automotive design, caused by the desire to reduce fuel consumption and improve

32、crash performance, haveresulted in automotive structures being made of thinner and higher strength metal parts. This fact combined with theincreased use of Zinc Coated Steels to reduce corrosion has made successful arc welding more difficult. This specifica-tion addresses joint geometry and workmans

33、hip requirements essential to automotive component arc welding quality. Asthe automotive industry is continually adopting new designs and materials, this standard is not intended to limit the useror prevent adoption of technology advancements. One objective was to prepare a specification that would

34、be useful forthe original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier suppliers of automotive components who may not have qualitystandards of their own. Another objective is to have the OEMs and Tier suppliers use and specify this document in orderto establish common industry standards.This fifth editio

35、n, D8.8M:2014, Specification for Automotive Weld QualityArc Welding of Steel, includes the followingchanges, notated with a vertical line along the side of the page:1. Improvement of several figures and related text to depict discontinuities more realistically, make them easier toread and where poss

36、ible, utilize ones already spelled out in A2.4 Standard Symbols for Welding, Brazing, andNondestructive Examination.2. Harmonize requirements for fusion and penetration across all joint types.Comments and suggestions for the improvement of this standard are welcome. They should be sent to the Secret
