This Malaysian Standard gives general guidance for the satisfactory production and control of welding and details the possible detrimental phenomena that may occur with advice on methods by which they may be avoided. It is generally applicable to all stainless steels and is appropriate regardless of the type of fabrication involved, although the application standard may have additional requirements. Permissible design stresses in welds, methods of testing and acceptance levels are not included because they depend on the service conditions of fabrication. These details should be obtained from the design specification. This standard contains additional details for fusion welding of stainless steels and should be read in conjunction with the general recommendations in Part 1 of this series.
