Scope. This guide presents an overall sampling strategy for the following purposes:
1. Determining the contaminants that might be present in significant quantities in a given welding environment;
2. Deciding which of these contaminants should be sampled and analyzed; and
3. Selecting a strategy for collecting samples that will provide valid, accurate measurements of workers’ exposure to various contaminants.
Safety and health issues and concerns are beyond the scope of this standard, and therefore are not fully addressed herein. Safety and health information is available from other sources, including, but not limited to, ANSI Z49.1, Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied Processes and applicable federal and state regulations.
