Bodt Welding Consultancy

                                                              Use, Interpretation and Application of Welding Standards

 

 

 

Bodt Welding Consultancy (BWC) was founded in 2010 as a single man’s company serving the industry in the use, interpretation, and application of welding standards, rules, regulations, and directives. The actual knowledge in this field has been gathered throughout many years and is efficiently presented to the industry.
More than 40 years of CEN and ISO work were the basis of this knowledge.

The consultancy activity has come to an end on 31-12-2020.

BWC is still actively involved with the latest developments in the field of welding. Accents are on weld quality (EN-1090, EN-ISO 9606, EN-ISO 14732, EN‑ISO 15614, and EN-ISO 3834) and the international rules about training, education, qualification, and certification of persons and companies active in the field of welding.
