EN 1708-1:1999/A1:2003

EN 1708-1:1999/A1:2003 is a amendment published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). Its full title is "Welding - Basic weld joint details in steel - Part 1: Pressurized components". This standard covers: The purpose of this standard is to exemplify commonly accepted welded connections in pressure systems. It does not promote the standardization of connections that may be regarded as mandatory or restrict development in any way. Stress analysis rules are to be considered if necessary. This standard contains examples of connections welded by: - Metal-arc welding with covered electrode (111); - Submerged arc welding with wire electrode (121); - Metal-arc inert gas welding; MIG-welding (131); - Metal-arc active gas welding; MAG-welding (135); - Flux-cored wire metal-arc welding with active gas shield (136); - Flux-cored wire metal-arc welding with inert gas shield (137); - Tungsten inert gas arc welding; TIG-welding (141); processes (process numbers according to EN 24063) in steel pressure systems. Other processes by agreement. The estimation of the suitability of welded connections for special service conditions, for example corrosion, creep, low temperture and fatigue are not specially considered.
