OK, it does not exist... so? Who prohibits to use it? Read FOREWORD 3rd sentence "This Code contains..." and refer to U-2(g) as well.
Please note that those design in Fig. UW-16.1 are some acceptable. There is no prohibition to use a different groove provided you demonstrate to the AI the possibility of full penetration.
