Your project’s welding standards would typically be noted in:
- Construction drawings or
- Clients specifications
We will require the welding standard specified for your project before we can begin to prepare a Welding Specification
Common Welding Standards
Here are some of the more common Welding Standards we routinely encounter:
AS/NZS 1554.1 Australian/New Zealand Standard: Structural Steel Welding Part 1: Welding of steel structures.
AS/NZS 1554.2 Australian/New Zealand Standard: Structural Steel Welding Part 2: Stud welding (steel studs to steel).
AS/NZS 1554.3 Australian/New Zealand Standard: Structural Steel Welding Part 3: Welding of reinforcing steel.
AS/NZS 1554.4 Australian/New Zealand Standard: Structural Steel Welding Part 4: Welding of high strength quenched and tempered steels.
AS/NZS 1554.5 Australian/New Zealand Standard: Structural Steel Welding Part 5: Welding of steel Structures subject to high levels of fatigue loading.
AS/NZS 1554.6 Australian/New Zealand Standard: Structural Steel Welding Part 6: Welding of stainless steel for structural purposes
