In the welding procedure, the effect on the distortion with plate size 240×250×304L stainless steel 12th weld joints made by tungsten inert gas (TIG) and shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) process concerning different type joint configuration have been calculated. The joint configurations engaged were double V-groove edge preparation for double side SMAW welding and square-butt preparation for double side TIG welding. All weld joints are passed by radiographic. Distortion measurements were carried out using height gauge. Two weld joints exhibited different distortion as the weld joint fabricated by double side TIG welding low distortion than fabricated by double side SMAW process.
