Structural steel welding - Welding of steel structures subject to high levels of loading
This document has been re-assessed by the committee, and judged to still be up to date.
WARNING: SUPERSEDED Standard. This document has been replaced by
Specifies requirements for the welding of steel structures made up of combinations of steel plate, sheet or sections, including hollow sections and built-up sections, or castings and forgings, by the MMAW, SAW, GMAW, GTAW or TIG, FCAW, ESW and EGW processes. The Standard is limited to the welding of steel parent material with a specified minimum yield strength not exceeding 500 MPa.
