Welding Standards Showdown: AWS vs. CWB - What You Need to Know!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Welding is a critical process that demands strict adherence to industry standards. In North America, two of the most commonly used welding standards are those set by the American Welding Society (AWS) and the Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB).
While both standards share similarities, there are significant differences that welders need to be aware of to ensure they are producing high-quality, safe welds.
Join us as we explore the differences between AWS and CWB welding standards, including welding procedure specifications, welding certification, and welding inspection requirements. We'll also discuss how these differences can impact the welding process and the final product.
Whether you're a seasoned welder or a beginner, this video is an essential resource for understanding the differences between AWS and CWB welding standards and ensuring your welding projects meet the highest quality standards.

What a freakin' cool video, I appreciate the content.
Having to stop and then start is the better way. The Canadian test is more accurate doing that.
Good vid.
Awesome content and presentation! Thanks! The CWB single bevel makes a lot of sense regarding having one test that can cover grooves and fillets.
I like it!
Just passed my CWB test!!! I am now certified in all postions flat, horizontal, vertical up, and overhead using SMAW. Im actually surprised how different the AWS is when it comes to qualifying in what you can weld.
Correction. You aren't certified. You are qualified. Only companies can be hold certification.
ye u right @@mattmax11
guy is the reason i can weld so good. his teaching in real life is the best knowledge ive had to day!!
When I got training in Comprehensive welding a 9 month training through Baytown Industrial welding. We were not allowed any backing strips! They were trying to teach us Pipe Welding and that meant we put the root pass in and had to have the weld geometry perfect on the inside!
picked up my helmet, gloves, face shield, leather jacket, glasses yesterday. i start my mig class monday morning, here in central usa. Maybe next time I'm home in Hamilton I'll do a little welding, just to practise.
i was informed friday afternoon that they're offering a stick class in the evenings at the same time. if they'll let me, i want to take it. but it starts on monday too. maybe it's too late to register.
@@vladtepes97 I start my welding course May 8th, 42 weeks of nothing but weld and fab, so stoked. Good luck man!
Great international comparison gentlemen.
#AWS #CWB #CAIMAN #KNOX #LINCOLN
Very interesting comparison. Here in Europe, also an important requirement is to follow and understand the welding procedure specification, which set out the process to use and may limit your favorite way of running your beads. Lol. Cheers.
Great information, Northern Canada here
the aws test looks so much easier wtf lol
Aws just shows you can run a bead basically
very interesting.
i wanted to see the bend test differences if they are any
The passing criteria is the same
Awesome, I really wish I would have gotten certified when I was younger. I just weld as a hobby.
Well, getting payed to do something is a surefire way of ruining any fun hobby....
Aws certs expire after 6 months if your not actively welding 😅
I thought Canada had changed to metric but inch was used by both of you. Are the standards for welding in Canada still in imperial units?
Canadian electrician here, we use both. In my experience the more expensive the project the more likely dimensions will be in metric.
CWB testing? As a person that lives in Alberta outside of industry, self testing practical equipment repairs to wait out manufacturing industry delays is something that can take place... example, a 1 inch round power take off shaft broke... after disassembly the part was taken in and inspected for fracture depth on both faces of the PTO shaft, the part was then fitted in a jig to align it properly so it can be gouged out removing all fractured metal and welded back together, shaft stud beveled to 45 degrees past center and welded to the 90 degree face of the PTO hub in a singular "tack weld at 165amp's at 74 volts using 1/8'' E7018" part rotated 180 degrees and repeated then rotated 90 degrees and repeated for covering all 4 90 degree segments finishing with a centered base weld on the 1 inch stud that is 25% to 30% of the shaft diameter... grinding and cleaning before each weld tack and such to then run stringers from the hub face across the splined studs beveled portion in the flat welding position insuring thru all process the ground strap is directly on the 90 degree hub face and not the beveled stud, rotating 180 degrees 90 then 180 and 90 180 90 180... till the joint is filled. 1 inch drive line stud of 4340 welded with 1/8'' E7018 at 165amp with a 74 volt hot start "watts"... in testing of a simulated abrasion surface it rotated an equivalent 900 pound load for 70'000km... and under rapid testing sustained an internal peak torsional load of a standardized unit meeting 178'000psi at the end of its 70'000km simulated abrasion cycle... standard CV axles for a ford 8.8 are warrantied for 180'000psi to 230'000psi tensile over 75'000km. 93% abrasion 77% tensile ... to that is was the 4340 stud that broke not the weld tho the brake was clean and flat similar to the original brake being that the 45 degree beveled portion was what broke not the fusion point of the 90 degree hub face allowing the hub to stay partly captive in its bearing race preventing additional damage. to that of the actual fractures on the part that was welded then broke being 3 times longer then the fractures on the original OEM broken PTO stud... 85% 7018 is a 70'000psi tensile rod to a 4918 process being 100'000psi tensile and including base metal contamination that permeated throughout the entreaty of the weld... 178'000psi is 178% above indicated process limitations 131.5% over all. its $50 to buy a new axle, its $5 just to weld it to at least 85% of OEM standard. where as a 85'000km OEM used part would be a 0 grade as it is passed its usage scale of -1% per 800km. welded 85% of an OEM specification part is better then a junk yard scratch and sniff "only smelt nice once still says win but there's nothing behind it, maybe a 50 cent Slurpee followed by a quick coming brain f... fff...". SMAW
Thanks
Wow, you can weld pipe on a plate test for AWS.
im canadian ( BC) to do pipe we have to do a class A test (PWP).
Tie ends is long been known for finding bad spots🌀
Should’ve bent them
Can't believe flux core ,I haven't seen F.C. at least 28 years,8010,7018 @ tig that's how it's done in the refinery be except the 8010 pipe line rod.Remember weld a broken heart or the crack of dawn makes no difference🌀
And then you get EN1090, which is a hogher standard requirement than both
Hallo 🤍have a good day I work as a welder. I have four years of experience in tig / mig mac / mma welding I
am still studying to obtain a certificate in reading charts and drawings at the age of 27. I accept work in any country. I am single
