    Is a prequalified WPS on butt weld would also be qualified on a fillet weld?

    Cheers

    Icoe,
    No it is not qualified.
    You will need to perform a macro to “qualify” your pre-qualified Fillet Weld WPS,

    I think it is worth while clarifying the difference between a fillet weld and a T-Butt
    A fillet – the vertical member is not preped, a T-Butt is
    in my opinion an inline butt does qualify a T-Butt in accordance with As1554, not that I necessarily agree with it
    but BB is right a butt does not cover a fillet weld
