GPW for rebars
GPW for rebars
(OP)
Hi everyone,
I'm being asked to look for a US or european standard for welding 2 rebars as you can see in this video:

The method is called Gas Pressure Welding and in some cases they use another one called Flash Welding. In my case I need a method suitable for site works.
In the same website they refer to the japanese standard NO.JIS Z 3881 but as I said before I'm looking for the american equivalent (or european)
Thanks!

If I recall (based on informal discussions with committee members), there was some discussion over inclusion in the future, but there was limited historical data to argue a basis for it, and significant concerns over its performance (or lack thereof) based on typical CE's of rebar materials and the associated rapid cooling rates.
