Weld Slope - It is angle formed between the line of the of the weld root and the horizontal reference plane.

Fig 2

Weld rotation - It is the angle formed between the upper portion of the vertical reference plane passing through
the line of the weld root and that part of the plane passing through the weld root and a point on the face of the
weld equidistant from both the edges of the weld.
