21、orldwide 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
22、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.The procedures used to develop this
23、 document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Dir
24、ectives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.

29、rements for the evaluation of weldability for resistance spot, seam and projection welding of metallic materials1 ScopeThis part of ISO 18278 specifies procedures for assessing the generic weldability for resistance welding of uncoated and coated metals.It is assumed for this and other linked standa
30、rds that their application is entrusted to appropriately trained, skilled, and experienced personnel.For the quality of welded structures, the relevant part of ISO 14554 is applicable. The specification of procedures is to follow guidelines as in ISO 15609-5.The purpose of the tests are toa) compare
31、 the metallurgical weldability of different metals,b) assess the weldability of differing component designs, e.g. dimensional configuration, stack-up, projection geometry, etc.,c) investigate the effect of changes in welding parameters such as welding current, weld time, electrode force or complex w
32、elding schedules including pulse welding, current stepping etc. on weldability, and/ord) compare the performance of resistance welding equipment.Precise details of the test procedure to be used will depend on which aspect of items a) to d) will be evaluated relative to the welding result obtained.2
