French term

soudures d'attaches intégrales

French to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering pipes
soudures d'attaches intégrales à pleine pénétration

A type of weld yes, but IATE and termium but this is all I've been able to find:

Soudage pleine pénétration or full penetration welding which I think has to do with the above and certainly with the text below and fastener for attache (termium), so my take is full penetration welding fastener welds?

ci-après en fonction de la classe 1, 2 ou 3.

Classes 1, 2, 3

Toutes les soudures

Contrôle dimensionnel à 100 %

Classe 1

Soudures à pleine penetration

100 % PT + 100 % VT

Classe 2

Soudures à pleine pénétration et soudures d'angle avec gorge > 25 mm

100 % PT + 100 % VT

Autres

10 % PT + 100 % VT

Classe 3

Soudures à pleine pénétration et soudures d'angle avec gorge > 25 mm

100 % PT + 100 % VT

Autres

10 % PT + 100 % VT

En ce qui concerne le contrôle des soudures d'attaches intégrales à pleine pénétration, ces soudures sont assimilées à des soudures de type C du Code ASME.

Pour les supports non classés, on se rapportera aux exigences du code de construction correspondant.

Discussion

Tony M Feb 23, 2015:
@ Chris I was thinking the same thing — and I think you're right: surely fasteneings that instead of being external clamps etc. are actually welded directly to the pipes, as you say, like lugs, etc.
chris collister Feb 23, 2015:
I'm trying hard to visualise a fastening or attachment which is not, in fact, an integral part of the item being supported. I assume that these "attaches" are lugs, brackets, plates, etc...?

welding of all connections.

Here integral means total or all So all the connections made are welded (as per the details given below).
Peer comment(s):

disagree Tony M : That might be the meaning of « l'intégralité de... », but hardly 'intégrales' as used here.

disagree B D Finch : 'Intégrales' does not mean "total or all" here and "attaches" are not "connections".

French term (edited): soudure d'attaches intégrales

welding of/for integral fixings

I agree with Chris C.'s take on this; and since it is clearly talking in the most general possible terms, I think you need to keep it very general in EN too, hence the very literal 'fixings' seems to fit the bill.
