Ehdotuksen tiedot

This document specifies the requirements for qualification testing of welders for fusion welding of steels, aluminium, copper, nickel, titanium and zirconium. In this document, the terms "aluminium", “copper”, “nickel”, “titanium” and “zirconium” refer to the materials and their alloys. This document provides a set of technical rules for a systematic qualification test of the welder and enables such qualifications to be uniformly accepted independently of product type, location and examiner or examining body. The fusion welding processes referred to in this document include welding processes which are designated as manual or partly mechanized. Qualification testing of welding operators and weld setters for mechanized and automatic welding is covered by ISO 14732.
