FOREWORD O.1 This Indian Standard ( Part 1) was adopted by the Indian Standards Tnatitution on 29 March 1974, after the draft finalized by the Welding General Sectional Gommitice had been approved by the Structural and Metals Division Council. 0.2 This standard is one of a series of Indian Standards on the approval testing of welders and welding procedures, the latter having a bearing on, the former for certain applications. ‘This link has been used as a means of arranging the series of standards into: 1a) welder approval when the welding procedure is not required to be approved ( for either technical or contract reasons ), b) approval testing of welding procedures, and ©) welder approval when welding procedure approval is required. 0.3 For the purposes of this standard, the welder who makes the welding procedure test is considered to be sufficiently experienced in the appropriate welding process and hence alrcady capable of passing training tests such as those contained in IS : 817-1966%. 044 To indicate the philosophy behind this series of standards, it is ‘considered useful to give details of the practices relating to welding’ proc “dure approval, Depending upon the emphasis placed on quality control in the production of welded components, so may the approval of welding procedures be administered in one of several ways. ‘The alternatives currently employed are the following: a) Each individual contractor ( or sub-cantractor) should prove by actual test pieces every weld form he wishes wo use, in every thickness and material; or b) Each individual contractor (or sub-contractor) should prove by actual test pieces, a sot of welds representative on a'group busty of all the various thicknesses and materials to be used in production; or Gade of practice for training and testing of metal are welders (rsied), 3187397 (Part 1) =1974 ©) Each individual contractor ( or sub-contractor) need not make procedure test pieces providing he can prove by authentic docu. ‘mentation of an independent nature that he has previously welded the ‘type of joint and material in question to give satisfactory service behaviour. In respect of (a) and (b) it should be appreciated that once the Welding procedure tesis have been approved, they need never be repeated [ives there isa change in certain variables, As an extension beyond (c), it may be possible in the future for fully documented welding proced arey” Geveloped Independently of the particular contractor, to be employed without the need for further approval tests Although a welding procedure may already have been approved, Seo auaulacturer should accept responsibility for the procedure teed on ® contract and for the ability of the welders to apply the procedure, G55 In the formulation, of this standard assitance has been derived from the draft British Standard ‘Specification for approval testing of welding rogedures, Pact I Fusion welding of steel” ( Doc: 72/42576 DG), issued By the Bris Standards Insts, 0.6 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this andard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing fie Ferule of a test oF analysis, shall be rounded off in accordaree ane 1S: 2-1960%. ‘The number of significant places retained in the reeled ot value should be the same as that of the specified value in this ctendees’ 1.
