Table 4 – <strong>Standards</strong> for the welding consumables<br />
The material shall be stored in a way, which prevents from adverse effects (this applies also to<br />
client supplied material). Moreover, some materials seem to be quite similar but possess very<br />
different properties; thus, identification shall be maintained at least during the storage.<br />
Even if it is not specifically required, a written procedure, which has to be prepared or is to be<br />
approved by the welding coordinator and has to be made available to the parent material<br />
warehouse, is suggested to cover this point of the standard.<br />
In order to be sure that the product delivered by the supplier complies with the Manufacturer’s<br />
needs and orders, references to the “certificates for the conformance of the furnished product to<br />
the order” can be made according to EN 10204 “Metallic products - Types of inspection<br />
documents”.<br />
In accordance with such a standard, inspection documents are divided in two groups, based on the<br />
following conditions:<br />
