Tests Performed
For BIS certification
of Cold Formed Welded Carbon Steel Square and Rectangular Hollow Sections,
several tests are performed to ensure compliance with the relevant standards:
● Ladle/Product
Analysis: Chemical composition is tested to confirm material quality.
● Straightness: Sections
are checked for straightness to ensure they meet the required specifications.
● Dimensions
and Tolerances: Accurate measurements are taken to verify that the
sections conform to the specified dimensions and tolerances.
● Squareness
of Side: The squareness of the section’s sides is examined to ensure
precise angles.
● External
Corner Radius: The radius of the external corners is measured for
consistency and adherence to standards.
● Straightness
and Twist: Sections are inspected for any twists or deviations from
straightness.
● Tensile
Testing: Mechanical properties like tensile strength are tested to
ensure the material's durability.
●Surface Protection: The sections are
assessed for proper surface treatment to prevent corrosion and extend their
lifespan.
Process of BIS Certification
Obtaining BIS certification involves the following
steps:
- Application
Submission: The manufacturer submits an
application to BIS along with the required fees, providing details about
the product, manufacturing process, and quality control measures.
- Product Testing: Cold Formed Welded Carbon Steel Square and Rectangular
Hollow Sections are tested in a BIS-recognized
lab.
- Factory Inspection: BIS officials inspect the manufacturing facility, including
raw materials, production processes, and quality control systems.
- Evaluation of Test
Reports: BIS evaluates the lab test results.
If the product meets the required standards, certification is approved.
- Grant of BIS License: Once all conditions are met, BIS grants the manufacturer a
license to use the ISI mark on the products.
- Marking
and Labeling: The manufacturer ensures that
certified products carry the ISI mark, license number, and other necessary
details.
