Specifies arc stud welding of metallic materials subject to static and fatigue loading.

This document covers arc stud welding of metallic materials subject to static and fatigue loading. It specifies requirements that are particular to stud welding, in relation to welding knowledge, quality requirements, welding procedure specification, welding procedure qualification, qualification testing of operators and testing of production welds.

This document is appropriate where it is necessary to demonstrate the capability of a manufacturer to produce welded construction of a specified quality.

NOTE General quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic materials are given in ISO3834‑1, ISO3834‑2, ISO3834‑3, ISO3834‑4 and ISO3834‑5.

This document has been prepared in a comprehensive manner, with a view to it being used as a reference in contracts. The requirements contained within it can be adopted in full, or partially, if certain requirements are not relevant to a particular construction (see AnnexB). For processing of stud welding, see AnnexA.
