Fig. 24.2 Standards that ensure acceptable quality and properties in welds<br />

<strong>Steel</strong>work contractors use recommended edge preparations that are included in<br />

BS EN 1011-2: 2001, 4 Welding – Recommendations for welding of metallic materials<br />

– Part 2: Arc welding of ferritic steels, and BS EN 29692: 1994, 6 Specification for<br />

metal-arc welding with covered electrode, gas-shielded metal-arc welding and gas<br />

welding. Joint preparation for steel. Part 2 of this standard, which is being developed,<br />

will include submerged arc welding joint preparations. Joint preparations should be<br />

appropriate for the welding process to be used, and the designer should not impose<br />

a preparation that may not be suitable for all fabricators.<br />

24.2.2 Standards – steel grade, steel selection<br />

<strong>Designers</strong> should specify weldable structural steels, with grades and grade suffixes<br />

for yield strengths in the range 185–460 N/mm 2 , shown in European standards such<br />

as:<br />

BS EN 10025: 1993, 7 Hot rolled products of non-alloy structural steels<br />

BS EN 10113: 1993, 8 Hot rolled products in weldable fine grained structural steels
