BRIEF HISTORY
The IS0 Recommendation R 559, Steel Pipes for Gas, Water and Sewage, Welded
was drawn up by Technical Committee ISO/TC 5, Pipes and Fittings, the Secretariat
or Seamless,
of which is held by the Association Suisse de Normalisation (SNV).
Work on this question by the Technical Committee began in 1958 and led, in 1963, to
the adoption of a Draft IS0 Recommendation.
In April 1965, this Draft IS0 Recommendation (No. 788) was circulated to all the IS0
Member Bodies for enquiry. It was approved, subject to a few modifications of an editorial
nature, by the following Member Bodies :
Argentina France Portugal
Belgium Germany Spain
Brazil India Sweden
Canada Israel Switzerland
Chile Italy Turkey
Czechoslovakia Norway U.A.R.
Five Member Bodies opposed the approval of the Draft:
Denmark
Hungary
Japan
United Kingdom
U.S.S.R.
The Draft IS0 Recommendation was then submitted by correspondence to the IS0
Council, which decided, in March 1967, to accept it as an IS0 RECOMMENDATION.
