Specification and qualification of welding procedures for metallic materials - Qualification based on tested welding consumables
Executive summarySpecification and qualification of welding procedures for metallic materials based on tested consumables.
AbstractThis International Standard is a part of a series of standards, details of which are given in an annex to EN ISO 15607:2003.
This standard gives the necessary information to explain the requirements referenced in EN ISO 15607:2003 for the qualification of welding procedures based on tested consumables. In addition, it gives the range of qualification.
This standard applies to arc and gas welding. The application of this standard is limited to parent metals which produce acceptable micro structures and properties in the heat affected zone which do not deteriorate significantly in service.
This standard is not applicable where requirements for hardness or impact properties, preheating, controlled heat input, interpass temperature and post-weld heat-treatment are specified for the welded joint.
History and related standardsThis International Standard supersedes BS EN 288-5:1995 which is withdrawn.
This standard includes the following cross-references:
EN ISO 4063, CR ISO 15608, prEN ISO 15609-1 and EN ISO 15609-2.
