Presentation
The new Regulation (EU) 305/2011 aims to simplify the procedures for
placing products on the market, clarifying some points of the directive with more precise definitions
and introducing important innovations to the ‘CE marking of construction
products’.
The course illustrates the requirements to which to adapt and provides concrete examples
of the innovations introduced, and is particularly intended for persons involved
in the management of welding activities.
The entry into force of the EN 1090-1 standard on the execution of steel and aluminium
structures introduces a new way of identifying and qualifying products that
comply with this standard.
The objective is to deliver a training course that provides the basics of
metallurgy, weldability, welding technology, manufacturing and control applied to your
product with particular focus on the management of WPS, process and personnel qualifications,
visual inspection and validation of new, as yet unqualified welding processes.
processes. The course will be delivered by teachers with significant experience in the
certification and testing of structural metal products.
