European foreword
This document (EN 10225-4:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 459 “ECISS -
1
European Committee for Iron and Steel Standardization” , the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2019, and conflicting national standards
shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2019.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document, together with EN 10225-1:2019, EN 10225-2:2019, and EN 10225-3:2019, supersedes
EN 10225:2009.
This European Standard consists of the following parts, under the general title 'Weldable structural
steels for fixed offshore structures – Technical delivery conditions':
— Part 1: Plates
— Part 2: Sections
— Part 3: Hot finished hollow sections
— Part 4: Cold formed welded hollow sections
In comparison to the previous edition following technical changes were made:
— welded cold formed hollow sections were only implicitly mentioned in the previous version.
Because of the split of the standard into four parts now a separate part with full requirements to
cold formed hollow sections for offshore structures is written;
— the steel names were adapted to EN 10027-1;
— former grades of group 3 are no longer listed, new options with the same enhanced properties have
been introduced (Options 2 and 3);
— there is an Annex E concerning SAWH hollow sections and an Annex F concerning high strength
square and rectangular HFW hollow sections, since the application of these hollow sections needs
more practical experience;
— an informative Annex G was added for the prequalification of steels for fixed offshore structures in
arctic areas.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta,
Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,
