Partial Joint Penetration (PJP) Groove Weld: Groove welds without steel backing, welded from one side, or groove welded from both sides, but without back gouging, are considered PJP groove welds. Complete Joint Penetration (CJP) Groove Weld: CJP groove welds made with backing, or welded without the use of backing, but have the root back gouged to sound metal before welding is started from the second side, are considered CJP groove welds. Fillet Weld: Joints where the joined pieces are between 60 and 135 degree are considered fillet weld.
