Introduction
Welding processes are widely used in the fabrication of engineered structures. During the second half
of the twentieth century, fusion welding processes, wherein fusion is obtained by the melting of parent
material and usually a filler metal, dominated the welding of large structures. In 1991, Wayne Thomas
at TWI invented friction stir welding (FSW), which is carried out entirely in the solid phase (no melting).
The increasing use of FSW has created the need for this document in order to ensure that welding is
carried out in the most effective way and that appropriate control is exercised over all aspects of the
operation. This document focuses on the FSW of aluminium because, at the time of publication, the
majority of commercial applications for FSW involved aluminium. Examples include railway carriages,
consumer products, food processing equipment, aerospace structures, and marine vessels.

Introduction
Welding processes are widely used in the fabrication of engineered structures. During the second half
of the twentieth century, fusion welding processes, wherein fusion is obtained by the melting of parent
material and usually a filler metal, dominated the welding of large structures. Then, in 1991, Wayne
Thomas at TWI invented friction stir welding (FSW), which is carried out entirely in the solid phase (no
melting).
The increasing use of FSW has created the need for this document in order to ensure that welding is
carried out in the most effective way and that appropriate control is exercised over all aspects of the
operation. This document focuses on the FSW of aluminium because, at the time of publication, the
majority of commercial applications for FSW involved aluminium. Examples include railway carriages,
consumer products, food processing equipment, aerospace structures, and marine vessels.
The parts of this document are:
Part 1: Vocabulary, defines terms specific to FSW.
Part 2: Design of weld joints, specifies design requirements for friction stir weld joints in aluminium.
Part 3: Qualification of welding operators, specifies requirements for the qualification of a welding
operator for the FSW of aluminium.
Part 4: Specification and qualification of welding procedures, specifies requirements for the specification
and qualification of welding procedures for the FSW of aluminium. A welding procedure specification
(WPS) is needed to provide a basis for planning welding operations and for quality control during
welding. Welding is considered a special process in the terminology of standards for quality systems.
Standards for quality systems usually require that special processes be carried out in accordance with
written procedure specifications. Metallurgical deviations constitute a special problem. Because non-
destructive testing of the mechanical properties is impossible at the present level of technology, this
has resulted in the establishment of a set of rules for qualification of the welding procedure prior to the
release of the WPS to actual production. ISO 25239-4 defines these rules.
Part 5: Quality and inspection requirements, specifies a method for determining the capability of a
fabricator to use the FSW process for the production of aluminium products of the specified quality. It
defines specific quality requirements but does not assign those requirements to any specific product
group. To be effective, welded structures should be free from serious problems in production and
in service. To achieve that goal, it is necessary to provide controls from the design phase through
material selection, fabrication, and inspection. For example, poor design can create serious and costly
difficulties in the workshop, on site, or in service. Incorrect material selection can result in welding
problems, such as cracking. Welding procedures have to be correctly formulated and qualified to avoid
imperfections. To ensure the fabrication of a quality product, management should understand the
sources of potential trouble and introduce appropriate quality and inspection procedures. Supervision
should be implemented to ensure that the specified quality is achieved.
