Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 13918 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 44, Welding and allied processes, Subcommittee
SC 10, Unification of requirements in the field of metal welding.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 13918:1998), which has been technically
revised.

5.3.4 Weldability
Only weldable materials shall be used for studs.
Non-alloyed steel studs are weldable if the hardness increase is low. In general this is the case when the
carbon content is u 0,20 %. Free-cutting steel studs are generally not weldable. Killed materials shall be used.
Austenitic stainless steel studs are generally weldable. Free-cutting steel studs are generally not weldable.
5.4 Durability
The durability of studs is dependent on their use and the environmental exposure to which they are subject.
The mechanical durability of studs is assured for a reasonable economic working life if the studs comply with
the requirements of this International Standard.
6 Testing for conformity evaluation
6.1 General
When a conformity evaluation is required, 6.2 to 6.5 apply.
6.2 Testing for dangerous substances
Release of dangerous substances may be assessed indirectly by controlling the content of the substances in
the materials used.
6.3 Testing of dimensional requirements of the studs
The dimensions of the studs given in Tables 6 to 16 shall be checked by standard gauges or measuring
equipment with an accuracy u 10 % of the given tolerances.
6.4 Testing of mechanical characteristics of studs
The mechanical characteristics of studs shall be tested in accordance with Table 3.

ISO 13918:2008(E)
The tensile test to be used shall be a full-size tensile test. However, if the dimensions of the studs do not allow
a full-size tensile test, the test may be carried out on the raw material provided the mechanical properties
corresponding to those of the current part of the stud are not modified by the manufacturing process.
If tensile testing is not possible, a hardness test shall be carried out for ferritic materials, thus determining the
tensile strength in accordance with ISO 4964. The particular properties of the cold-formed material, especially
in the peripheral zone, shall be taken into account. For cold-formed studs, the mean value of a minimum of
three test points shall be determined, whereas the whole cross-section shall be included. This mean value
shall achieve at least the tensile strength according to Table 3. For the rest, the mechanical properties of the
raw material shall be used.
The correlation of hardness and tensile strength is laid down likewise in ISO/TR 10108.
6.5 Weldability
A material is considered weldable if a qualified welding procedure can be developed for the material
(see ISO 14555).
7 Evaluation of conformity
7.1 General
When an evaluation of conformity is required, 7.2 and 7.3 apply.
The conformity of the studs to the requirements of this International Standard shall be demonstrated by:
⎯ initial type testing;
⎯ factory production control by the manufacturer, including product assessment.
For the purposes of testing, the products may be grouped into families where it is considered that the selected
properties are common to all the products within that family.
7.2 Initial type testing
7.2.1 General
An initial type test is the complete set of tests or other procedures determining the performance of samples of
products representative of the product type.
Initial type testing shall be performed to show conformity with this International Standard on its first use for
products being put on to the market and:
⎯ at the beginning of the production of a new type of stud or different raw material;
⎯ at the beginning of a new or modified method of production.
In the case of products for which initial type testing in accordance with this International Standard was already
performed, testing may be reduced:
⎯ if it has been established that the performance characteristics compared with the products already tested
have not been affected or
⎯ in accordance with the rules for grouping and/or direct application or application by extrapolation of test
results.

NOTE Studs CE marked in accordance with appropriate specifications may be presumed to have the performance
stated with the CE marking, although this does not replace the responsibility of the stud manufacturer to ensure that the
stud is correctly designed and has the necessary performance values to meet the design.
7.2.2 Characteristics
All characteristics in Clause 5 shall be subject to initial type testing, with the following exception:
⎯ release of dangerous substances may be assessed indirectly by controlling the content of the substance
concerned.
7.2.3 Use of historical data
Tests previously performed on the same products in accordance with the provisions of this International
Standard (same characteristics, test method, sampling procedure, system of attestation of conformity, etc.)
may be taken into account.
