Welding of Stainless Steel Structures

Building India’s Stainless Steel Structural Ecosystem

Because strong structures depend on stronger connections.

As India accelerates the adoption of stainless steel in bridges, buildings, and large infrastructure, performance depends not only on the material—but on the quality of connections, processes, and skills behind it.

IndiaWelds has been a silent but strategic partner in building the complete stainless steel structural ecosystem in India—spanning research, standards, training, and industry execution.

🔬 Research & Technical Validation

IndiaWelds has conducted extensive research in collaboration with the Department of Earthquake Engineering (DEQ), IIT Roorkee, to evaluate the feasibility and performance of stainless steel in heavy structural applications.

This work led to the development of India’s first dedicated manual on welding of stainless steel for heavy fabrication, capturing critical metallurgical and process nuances essential for structural integrity, durability, and compliance with codes and standards.

📘 Standards & National Frameworks

To institutionalise stainless steel fabrication skills nationally, IndiaWelds developed the Qualification Pack for Stainless Steel Heavy Fabrication for the Indian Iron and Steel Sector Skill Council (IISSSC).

✔ Approved by NCVET, Government of India
✔ Rolled out nationally through NSDC
✔ Aligned with industry and project requirements

(The accreditation letter may be accessed by writing to us.)

IndiaWelds’ contribution to corrosion-resilient infrastructure has also been recognised with the CII National Award on Corrosion Management Practices, awarded for our joint case study with IIT Roorkee.

🎓 Training, Certification & Qualification

As an accredited training partner of IISSSC, IndiaWelds delivers end-to-end workforce capability development for stainless steel structural applications:

  • Welder training aligned with national standards

  • Certification and qualification for stainless steel welding

  • Programs designed for infrastructure, bridges, and heavy fabrication projects

Our focus is not just certification—but on-ground competence for critical structural welding.

🏭 Industry Support & Ecosystem Development

IndiaWelds works closely with fabricators, EPCs, and vendors to strengthen execution capability through:

  • Development of Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS) for stainless steel fabrication

  • Technical handholding for project readiness

  • Capability enhancement to meet quality, safety, and compliance requirements

By connecting research, standards, skills, and execution, IndiaWelds enables industry to confidently deliver stainless steel structures at scale.
