Structure engineering-IMPORTING STEEL FROM OVERSEAS

Do you have the test certificates/reports for the steel material either from overseas or from the mill?

 

Clause 2.2.2 of AS 4100 states:

“Test reports or test certificates that comply with the minimum requirements of the appropriate Standard listed in Clause 2.2.1 shall constitute sufficient evidence of compliance of the steel with the Standards listed in Clause 2.2.1. The test reports or test certificates shall be provided by the manufacturer or an independent laboratory accredited by signatories to the International Laboratory Accreditation Corporation (Mutual Recognition Arrangement) (ILAC (MRA)) or the Asia Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (APLAC) on behalf of the manufacturer. In the event of a dispute as to the compliance of the steel with any of the Standards listed in Clause 2.2.1, the reference testing shall be carried out by independent laboratories accredited by signatories to ILAC (MRA) or APLAC.”
