An Available Superseded Standard is one, which has been made available for a period of time although it has been formally superseded by another Standard. Its availability is maintained where it is referenced in legislation/regulations or in other Standards and its use should be restricted to where so referenced. No responsibility is taken by Intertek Inform as to the ongoing technical validity of such a Standard, the responsibility resting with the referencing authority.

Specifies the requirements necessary for the granting of certificates to experienced welders engaged in the various welding processes used in the manufacture of pressure equipment, such as boilers, pressure vessels and associated piping, as defined in AS/NZS1200, as well as, other applications requiring a prescribed standard in the theory and practice of welding.

This Standard specifies the requirements necessary for the granting of certificates to experienced and competent welders engaged in the operation of various welding processes used in the manufacture of pressure equipment such as boilers, pressure vessels and associated piping as defined in AS/NZS 1200, as well as other applications requiring a prescribed standard in the theory and practice of welding.Certification in welding is related primarily to basic welding techniques and processes and not to the parent metal of the joint.Welder certification should not be confused with welder qualification (see Clauses 1.5.24 and 1.5.30). The requirements for welder qualification are specified in the appropriate application Standards.
