Company Certification Standards in Welding

SOME OF THE MANAGEMENT STANDARD.

ISO 900O -QMS ISO 14000 -EMS ISO 18000-Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OH& S MS) And International Standard OHSAS 18001:1999 ISO 27000-ISO/IEC 27002 provides best practice recommendations on IS security management systems (ISMS).

EMERGING STANDARDS
ISO-3834 Quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic materials. EN -15085- Welding of railway vehicles and components. IRIS- International Railway Industry Standard

Welding is a Special Process-Why

7 - Product realization 7.5 Production and service provision 7.5.2 Validation of processes for production and service provision The organization shall validate any processes for production and service provision where the resulting output cannot be verified by subsequent monitoring or measurement and as a consequence, deficiencies become apparent only after the product is in use or the service has been delivered.

What is ISO-3834&EN 15085

It is an international standard created by the welding professional ISO 9001 defines requirements for quality management system ISO 3834 also defines the quality requirements, only welded products. EN 15085 for railway applications.

What is ISO-3834&EN 15085(contd)

The standard specifies the requirements relating only to the welded structure. The standard can also be used as a production control system. ISO 3834 is not a product standard, but it is often cited as a requirement of various products to ensure good practice in the welding and to prevent premature failures.

What is ISO-3834&EN 15085(contd)

The standards provides details of how to control the various welding and weldingrelated operations to achieve the desired quality consistently The company that is certified according to this standard gains an advantage when competing with other companies in European and World wide markets.

ISO 3834 part-1 to 4

ISO 3834-1-General requirements ISO 3834-2- Comprehensive quality requirement ISO 3834-3- Standard quality requirement ISO 3834-4 -elementary quality requirement

ISO 3834-2- Comprehensive quality requirement

Constructions in which the failure of welds may lead to total product failure with significant financial consequences Major injury. The product may be subject to dynamic loading In addition to high static loading.

ISO 3834-3- Standard quality requirement

Constructions in which failure of welds
impair the intended use of construction. Normal safety risk Financial losses not extreme.

ISO 3834-4 elementary quality requirement

Constructions in which failure of welds Not fundamentally impair the intended use. No adverse effects on safety of people Minor financial consequences.
