Welding - Basic welded joint details in steel - Part 1: Pressurized components

The purpose of this European Standard is to exemplify commonly accepted welded connections in pressure systems. It does not promote the standardization of connections that may be regarded as mandatory or restrict development in any way. Stress analysis rules should be considered if necessary. This standard contains examples of connections welded by: - Manual metal-arc welding with covered electrode (111); - Submerged arc welding (12); - Gas shielded metal arc welding (13); - Tungsten inert gas arc welding; TIG-welding (14); - Plasma arc welding (15) processes (process numbers according to EN ISO 4063) in steel pressure systems. Other processes by agreement. This standard covers welded joint details in steel, but can be applied to other metallic materials. In such cases the shape and dimensions of the weld should be checked. The estimation of the suitability of welded connections for special service conditions, for example corrosion and fatigue are not specially considered.

Schweißen - Verbindungselemente beim Schweißen von Stahl - Teil 1: Druckbeanspruchte Bauteile

Diese Norm enthält beispielhaft allgemein übliche Schweißverbindungen an druckbeanspruchten Bauteilen. Sie ersetzt nicht die Normung von vorgeschriebenen Verbindungen oder schränkt die Entwicklung in irgendeiner Weise ein. Falls erforderlich, sind die Regeln der Spannungsberechnung zu beachten.
Die Norm enthält Beispiele von Schweißverbindungen, die nach folgenden Prozessen geschweißt werden:
-   Lichtbogenhandschweißen (111);
-   Unterpulverschweißen (12);
-   Metallschutzgasschweißen (13);
-   Wolfram-Inertgasschweißen; WIG-Schweißen (141);
-   Plasmaschweißen (15).
Prozesse (Prozessnummern nach EN ISO 4063) an Stahl für Drucksysteme. Andere Verfahren nach Vereinbarung.
Die Norm deckt Verbindungselemente beim Schweißen von Stahl ab, kann aber auch auf andere metallische Werkstoffe angewandt werden. In diesen Fällen muss die Form und das Abmaß der Schweißverbindung geprüft werden.
Die Eignung dieser Schweißverbindungen für besondere Betriebsbedingungen, z. B. Korrosion und Ermüdung, wird nicht besonders berücksichtigt.

Soudage - Descriptif de base des assemblages soudés en acier - Partie 1: Composants soumis à la pression

L’objet de la présente norme est de présenter les assemblages soudés communément acceptés dans les récipients à pression. Elle ne promeut aucunement la normalisation d’assemblages qui puissent être considérés comme obligatoires, pas plus qu’elle ne restreint en aucune façon le développement. Les règles d’analyse des contraintes doivent être prises en considération si nécessaire.
La présente norme contient des exemples de soudures effectuées par :
-   soudage à l’arc avec électrode enrobée (111) ;
-   soudage à l’arc sous flux en poudre (12) ;
-   soudage à l’arc sous protection de gaz avec fil électrode fusible (13) ;
-   soudage à l’arc en atmosphère inerte avec électrode de tungstène, procédé TIG (141) ;
-   soudage plasma (15) ;
(références de procédé conformes à l’EN ISO 4063) dans les récipients à pression en acier. Les principes de cette norme peuvent s’appliquer à d’autres procédés sur accord.
La présente norme couvre les détails des joints soudés pour l’acier, mais peut être appliquée à d’autres matériaux métalliques. Dans de tels cas, les forme et dimensions de la soudure doivent être vérifiées.
L’estimation de l’adaptation des assemblages soudés à des conditions d’utilisation particulières, comme la corrosion et la fatigue n’est pas particulièrement examinée.

Varjenje - Opisi zvarnih spojev na jeklu - 1. del: Tlačne komponente

Namen tega evropskega standarda je ponazoriti splošno sprejete zvarne povezave v tlačnih sistemih. Ne spodbuja standardizacije povezav, ki bi se lahko štela kot obvezna ali ki bi kakor koli omejevala razvoj.  Po potrebi je treba upoštevati pravila napetostne analize. Ta standard vsebuje primere povezav, zvarjenih na naslednje načine: - z ročnim elektroobločnim varjenjem z oplaščeno elektrodo (111); - z obločnim varjenjem pod praškom (12); - z elektroobločnim varjenjem v zaščitnem plinu (13); - z obločnim varjenjem z netaljivo volframovo elektrodo pod zaščito obloka z inertnimi plini; TIG-varjenje (14); - s plazemskim obločnim varjenjem (15) (številke postopkov v skladu z EN ISO 4063) v jeklenih tlačnih sistemih. Drugi postopki po dogovoru. Ta standard zajema zvarne spoje na jeklu, vendar se lahko uporabi tudi za druge materiale. V takšnih primerih je treba preveriti obliko in mere zvara. Ocena ustreznosti zvarnih povezav pri posebnih delovnih pogojih, na primer koroziji in utrujenosti materiala, ni posebej obravnavana.

EN 1708-1:2010 (E) 4 1 Scope The purpose of this European Standard is to exemplify commonly accepted welded connections in pressure systems. It does not promote the standardization of connections that may be regarded as mandatory or restrict development in any way. Stress analysis rules should be considered if necessary. This standard contains examples of connections welded by:
 Manual metal-arc welding with covered electrode (111);  Submerged arc welding (12);  Gas shielded metal arc welding (13);  Tungsten inert gas arc welding; TIG-welding (14);  Plasma arc welding (15) processes (process numbers according to EN ISO 4063) in steel pressure systems. Other processes by agreement. This standard covers welded joint details in steel, but can be applied to other metallic materials. In such cases the shape and dimensions of the weld should be checked. The estimation of the suitability of welded connections for special service conditions, for example corrosion and fatigue are not specially considered. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN ISO 4063, Welding and allied processes — Nomenclature of processes and reference numbers (ISO 4063:2009) EN ISO 5817, Welding — Fusion-welded joints in steel, nickel, titanium and their alloys (beam welding excluded) — Quality levels for imperfections (ISO 5817:2003, corrected version:2005, including Technical Corrigendum 1:2006) EN ISO 9692-1:2003, Welding and allied processes — Recommendations for joint preparation — Part 1: Manual metal-arc welding, gas-shielded metal-arc welding, gas welding, TIG welding and beam welding of steels (ISO 9692-1:2003) EN ISO 9692-2:1998, Welding and allied processes — Joint preparation — Part 2: Submerged arc welding of steels (ISO 9692-2:1998) 3 Requirements 3.1 Selection of detail Connections are not considered to be equally suitable for all service conditions, nor is the order in which they are shown indicative of their relative characteristics. In selecting the appropriate detail to use from the several SIST EN 1708-1:2010



EN 1708-1:2010 (E) 5 alternatives shown for each type of connection, consideration shall be given to existing fabrication and service conditions that pertain. 3.2 Joint preparation (geometry and size) 3.2.1 General The limitations quoted in weld profiles and sizes are based on commonly accepted practice, but they may be subjected to modifications if required by special welding techniques or design conditions, which should be included in the design documents and in the welding procedure specifications (WPS). 3.2.2 Joint preparation geometry Examples of recommended joint preparation geometry (e.g. bevel angles, root radius, presence of backing strips, root faces) are referred to EN ISO 9692-1 when applicable and to EN ISO 9692-2 relative to submerged arc welding process. Missing dimensions of preparations are in accordance with EN ISO 9692-1. In case where full penetration butt joints are indicated, it is intended that they shall be back chipped or gouged and back welded, or alternatively that the welding procedure shall be such as to ensure sound, effective root penetration. For relevant difference of thickness (generally a difference of about 3 mm (see Table 1, no. 1.1.1 to 1.1.6) could be considered relevant; in any case the thickness of material shall be taken into account, as well as the shape of the joint) of parts to be butt welded, the thickest element shall be shaped with a slope of 1:5 up to 1:2. Smoother transition of wall thickness is applicable in severe service conditions. 3.2.3 Weld sizes The thickness of welds (in particular of fillet welds), which are not determined by their profile, are based on the assumption that the connection need not be stronger than the connected parts. 3.3 Presentation
Figure 1 — Transversal section Figure 2 — Longitudinal section The drawings of the nozzle and branch connections (see Tables 2 and 3) show a transversal section of the connection (see Figure 1) and a longitudinal section of the connection (see Figure 2). 3.4 Removal of internal sharp edges in branch bores It will be noted that the internal edges on the bores of branches are shown partially radiused (for example see Table 2, no. 2.1.6) because a stress concentration occurs at this point. The rounding of the edges is recommended when the branch connection is subjected to severe service conditions like fatigue, creep and stress corrosion. SIST EN 1708-1:2010



EN 1708-1:2010 (E) 6 3.5 Preparation of holes in shell for set-through branches In case of set-in and set-through branches (according to Table 2, no. 2.2 and no. 2.3) holes in the shell may be cut and profiled in two ways as follows:  The depth of the grooves h1 and h2 may be constant around the hole as shown in Figure 3.
Key
h1, h2 depth of the grooves Figure 3 — Preparation of holes in the shell  The roots of the joint preparations may be in one plane, as for example when they are machine drilled, in which case the depths of the grooves will vary around the hole as shown in Figure 4.
Figure 4 — Preparation of holes in the shell 3.6 Welds for smooth transition In some cases it is convenient to foresee a fillet weld providing smooth geometric transition from the surface of one welded part to the surface of the other one, e.g. from branch to shell. Its purpose is to soften the notch effect in the branch-shell edge and therefore the throat thickness is not presented on the figure concerned. 3.7 Oblique and tangential branches The welded connections are contained in Tables 1 to 13. Regarding branches, the oblique and tangential ones are not specially considered as their preparation is similar to that reported on Tables 2 and 3 for radial branches. Only some significant cases are therefore considered (see Table 2, no. 2.2). NOTE 1 The welds are only blackened in the following tables when the figures do not give information about the dimension of the values for the preparation. NOTE 2 It is not intended that the values of the dimension given in the tables should be measured precisely but rather the general philosophy should be applied.

Figure Application/ condition Note Reference to EN ISO 9692-1:2003 and EN ISO 9692-2:1998 It is recommended that the gap between the shell of the vessel and the jacket or blocking ring should not exceed 3 mm. A blocking ring should be machined to a circumferential length not more than 5 mm greater than that of the vessel. Wider gaps increase the tendency to spontaneous cracking during welding, particularly as the thickness of the parts increase.

 As service conditions become more severe, change to full penetration weld;
 in difficult situations, chamfering the blocking ring will help to avoid cracking;  if the shell plate is stressed in direction of its thickness, it shall be examined for laminations before welding the jacket.
