The American Welding Society (Miami, FL) issued a formal caution about using unauthorized translations of AWS standards and other AWS publications in Chinese, Spanish and other languages. Because AWS has not sanctioned these translations, AWS cannot attest to their accuracy. Users of AWS standards should be aware that serious technical errors may exist in unauthorized translated material. Currently, AWS has authorized only the translation of AWS D1.1/D1.1M:2004 and 2006 Structural Welding Code ? Steel into Japanese. www.aws.org
