The weld all-around symbol is a supplementary symbol which circles the weld symbol on the reference line.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Placed at the junction of the arrow & the reference line
• D. Circles the weld symbol on the reference line

Answer: (B)

The all‑around indicator is shown by a small circle placed on the reference line, and it means the weld continues all the way around the joint (for example, a circumferential weld on a pipe or around a flange). It isn’t a symbol that circles the weld symbol itself. The circle sits on the reference line to mark that all‑around weld, not at the arrow–reference line junction, and it is not meant to encircle the weld symbol. That’s why the statement is False.
