positions

if i have a vertical pipe but suspend it to chest height/stomach height does it still count. Of course keeping it 90 deg

What are you trying to do?

Height doesnt matter. Look here. http://www.murexwelding.co.uk/gb/en/support/upload/MUREX-MMA-POSTER-2008.pdf

vertical is vertical horizontal is horizontal no matter where it is depends what ur practising for I know this sounds obvious but a position don't change with the height. But no point practising for a job at waist height when its below floor with only top access.

I believe standard practice is that unless the test is specified as an overhead you can choose the height you weld it at, but once chosen you can't move from that position. Often the jig will be welded to make sure a positional weld is actually done in position and not rolled on the bench while the examiner is elsewhere...
