Flare Weld Symbol

Flare Weld Symbol

Flare Weld Symbol

(OP)
We use BS EN 22553 welding symbols, but this standard does not seem to have a symbol for a flare weld or a flare bevel weld (which I have seen in an AWS standard).
If I have a joint where a flat surface with a radius meets a flat surface or alternatively 2 lengths of externally radiused box section side by side and I want to weld down the joint between the radii, which symbol should I use from BS EN 22553?

RE: Flare Weld Symbol

If you cannot find the flare weld symbol in BS EN, why would not you use the AWS Symbol with a note to this effect?

Because I wouldn't mix standards on a drawing normally.  Thanks anyway.  However, I was wondering, can't my joint be classed as a fillet weld?
