IIW Annual Report 2021

WORKING GROUP STANDARDISATION

The IIW is an international standardising body approved by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to develop standards in the field of welding and related processes. In this way, the body of knowledge evolved through IIW can be formalised and made available to industry to promote quality and harmony on a global basis. WG-STAND worked on the publication of major standards related to welding processes (friction stir welding on aluminium), nondestructive testing (NDT) (metal magnetic memory method), and quality management of Brazing processes and welding consumables. The unit worked also on the upcoming publication of standards related to NDT Ultrasonic testing - full matrix capture/total focusing technique (FMC/ TFM) and on the revision of standards on fatigue (weld quality in relationship to fatigue strength and design of hollow sections) and welding consumables.
