ISO 9606-1 Section 5.4 (e)

Butt welds may qualify fillet welds if a supplementary fillet weld test piece (see Figure 3) is welded with each process, filler material (FM) group and electrode covering/core, in accordance with Tables 3, 4 and 5.

The test piece shall be at least 10 mm thick, or the thickness of the butt weld test piece if the thickness is less, and completed using a single layer in the PB position.

For this supplementary test, the welder shall be qualified for all fillet welds as given for the butt weld qualification variables related to the range of qualification for fillet welds (e.g. Tables 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12).

Fillet weld positions PA and PB are qualified by this test.

Is a supplementary butt weld required?

ISO 9606-1 Section 9.3

Revalidation shall be carried out by an examiner/examining body. The skill of the welder shall be periodically verified by one of the following methods.

Please choose a method of revalidation:

A) The welder shall be retested every 3 years

B) Every 2 years, two welds made during the last 6 months of the validity period shall be tested by radiographic or ultrasonic testing or destructive testing and shall be recorded. The acceptance levels for imperfections shall be as specified in Clause 7. The weld tested shall reproduce the original test conditions except for thickness and outside diameter. These tests revalidate the welder's qualifications for an additional 2 years.

C) A welder's qualifications for any certificate shall be valid as long as it is confirmed according to 9.2 and
provided all the following conditions are fulfilled:
- The welder is working for the same manufacturer for whom he or she qualified, and who is responsible for the manufacture of the product;
- The manufacturer's quality programme has been verified in accordance with ISO 3834-2 or ISO 3834-3;
- The manufacturer has documented that the welder has produced welds of acceptable quality based on application standards; the welds examined shall confirm the following conditions: welding position(s), weld type (FW, BW), material backing (mb) or no material backing (nb).
