1 Scope
This standard specifies the technical requirements for the welding work of boilers, pressure vessels, pressure pipelines, steel structures and non-pressure parts welding on pressure parts and for the welding repair work of main and auxiliary parts for design, installation, maintenance, reconstruction project and auxiliary processing and manufacturing of thermal power plant.
This standard is applicable to shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), tungsten inert gas welding (TIG), consumable electrode (solid-core and flux-cored wire) gas metal arc welding (GMAW, FCAW), oxyfuel gas welding (OFW), submerged-arc welding (SAW), etc.
This standard is also applicable to the welding of non-pressure structures, leakproof and general support structures.
