Final Answer :
True
Explanation :
Both plug welds and slot welds are specified using a circle symbol with an arrow pointing to the location of the weld. The symbol typically includes a tail with information about the weld size and other details. The same symbol is used for both plug welds and slot welds, so it is important to carefully read the tail of the symbol to understand what type of weld is required.
