ISO 10474:2013 — Inspection Documents for Steel Products
Procurement reference for defining inspection documents supplied with steel-product deliveries against order requirements.
Edition control: Published; Edition 2, last reviewed and confirmed in 2023. This original MNK-G.S.A summary does not reproduce or replace the protected ISO publication. Confirm the current authorised edition and governing order documents before use.
Scope in Procurement
ISO 10474:2013 defines types of inspection documents supplied to the purchaser for steel-product deliveries in accordance with the order.
Inspection-document requirements are applied together with the applicable product standard and the ISO 404:2013 general technical delivery requirements; they do not replace the product standard, drawing, inspection plan or contractual acceptance requirements. For steel castings, the companion delivery standard is ISO 4990.
ISO 10474 terminology must not be treated as automatically identical to EN 10204 document types. The exact required standard, document designation, validation route and reporting content should be stated in the inquiry and purchase order. The EN 10168:2004 procurement guide provides a separate information-structure reference for steel-product certificates.
