AS such, welding exerts & profound infiuence on the cost of fabrication and quality of the product. I is important, therefore, to ensure that welding is carried out in the most effective way and that appropriate control is exercised over all aspects of the operation. ‘Within the EN 29000 series of standards for quality systems, welding is to be weated as a “Special Process” since welds cannot be fully verified by subsequent inspection and testing of the product to ensure that the required quality standards hhave been met Quality cannot be inspected into a product, it has 10 Duilt into it, Even the most extensive and sophisticated non-destructive testing does not improve the quality of welds. For welded constructions to be effective and free from serious problems in proxiuction and in service, itis necessary to provide controls, from the design phase, through material selection, into fabrication and subsequent inspection. For example, poor design for welding may create serious and costly difficulties in the workshop, on site, or in service. Incorrect material selection may result in welding problems, such as cracking. Welding procedures have to be correcily formulated and approved to avoid imperfections. Supervision needs to be implemented to ensure that the specified quality will be achieved. To ensure an effective welded fabrication, management needs to appreciate the sources of potential trouble and to {introduce appropriate quality procedures. 1 SCOPE ‘These guidelines have been prepared to describe welding quality requirements suitable for application by manufacturers using welding as a means of fabrication, They are structured such that they can be used for fabrication of any type of fusion welded construction. These guidelines relate only to those aspects of the quality of the final construction which may be influenced by welding and allied processes. ‘These guidelines define various approaches to quality requirements for welding fabrication, both in workshops and on sites and provide guidance for describing the capability of a manufacturer to be able to produce welded constructions of the specified quality. They can also be used by any interested panty as a basis for assessing a manufacturers welding quality arrangements ‘These guidelines are intended as a guide for the preparation of regulatory or comtracuial requirements and for a ‘manufacturer's management to define welding requirements for quality systems related to the type of welded construction. The guidelines are not structured to be used in isolation as par of any regulatory, contractual or ‘managerial requirement. “These guidelines are intended to be used for the following purposes: 2) providing interpretation of the requirements in the EN 29000 series of standards, as a guideline for specification and establishment of the part of the quality system related to control of welding as a "Special Process"; ) providing guidelines to establish specifications and welding quality requirements, where 2 quality system according. to EN 29001 and EN 29002 is not involved: ©) assessment of the welding quality requirements mentioned in a) or b) above. EAOT EN 729-1 ‘The application of this standard would typically occur in the following circumstances: = in contractual situations: specification of welding requirements for quality systems; - by manufacturers: establishment and maintenance of welding quality requirements; = by committzes preparing structural codes or other application standards: specification of welding quality requirements; = by interested parties, e-g. third panties, customers or the manufacturers management: assessment of welding. guality requirements 2.
