What is ISO 3834-2 - Quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic materials about?  

ISO 3834-2 is the second in a series of four on fusion welding of metallic materials. ISO 3834-2 defines comprehensive quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic materials both in workshops and at field installation sites. 

Quality management systems in welding are intended for all organizations which are dealing with welding while manufacturing products. ISO 3834-2 specifies information about requirements for the welding process, welding procedure specifications, welding and related activities, inspection and testing before and after welding. 

Who is ISO 3834-2 - Quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic materials for? 

ISO 3834-2 on fusion welding of metallic materials is applicable to the oil and gas, automotive, nuclear, and energy sectors. ISO 3834-2 can be used by you if you manufacture pressure vessels, sheet metals, aircrafts, or ships. ISO 3834-2 is useful for: 

  • Quality managers / assessors 
  • Welding, brazing and soldering personnel 
  • Engineers 

Why should you use ISO 3834-2 - Quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic materials? 

ISO 3834-2 gives you an orientation for the comprehensive quality requirements for fusion welding of metals. Together with the other documents in the series, ISO 3834-2 helps you to improve the quality of your fusion welding. The ISO 3834 series ensures effective control of weld quality through the proper management of the welding processes. ISO 3834-2 guides you to comply with all requirements; since failure to do so could affect product quality, property, and workers’ health.  

ISO 3834-2 helps you to plan the welding activity. ISO 38342 gives guidelines for storage of welding materials. ISO 3834-2 provides qualifications and specifications for the inspection and testing of the weld quality; which, in turn, improves the quality of welding and related processes. 

What’s changed since the last update? 

ISO 3834-2-2021 supersedes ISO 3834-2:2005, which is withdrawn.  ISO 3834-2-2021 has been editorially revised.
