EN 288-9:1999 Specification and Approval of Welding Procedures for Metallic Materials - Part 9: Welding Procedure Test for Pipeline Welding on Land and Offshore Site Butt Welding of Transmission Pipelines
This standard specities how a welding procedure
specification is approved by welding procedure tests
for on land and offshore site butt welding of
tsansmission pipelines under normal ahnospheric
conditions.
Tests are carried out in accordance with this standard
unless additional tests (e.g. CTOD tests and all weld
metal tensile tests) are specitied by the relevant
application standard or contract when these apply
This standard defines the conditions for the execution
of welding procedure approval tests and the limits of
validity of an approved welding procedure for all
practical welding operations w i t h the range of
variables Wed in clause 8.
It applies to the arc welding of steels of groups 1,2
and 3 according to CR 12187. The principles of this
standard can be applied to other fusion welding
processes subject to agreement between the
contsacting parties.
The requirements for welding procedure specification
and qualification for hyperbaric and "wet" welding are
not covered by this supplementary standard.
