[MW:7966] Acceptance criteria for Mechanical testing.......

Please comment on the following issue.
 
As per BS EN 10225, S420G2+M--thickness less than 40mm should have a tensile strength of 500 to 660MPa. Material test certifactes shows a vaue of 623MPa. This material is used for welding procedure qualification test where the tensile strength reported is 550Mpa. My collegue who is reviewing the WPS\PQR says that he will reject the WPS\PQR because tensile value of PQR test specimen is less than 623MPa. My opinion is that the PQR test specimen meets BS EN 10225 and so should be accepted.
