Normally, the specifications specify lower tensile strength levels for weld qualification test for these Aluminum grades (comparing to the original tensile strength of the parent metal); it is due to the softening effect of welding on Aluminum. 5754 plates are Al-Mg3 grades with subsequent work hardening and some tempering (quarter hard) and their welds (or HAZ) is weaker than the unaffected plate; it is normal.
Having said that, I believe that with these results, you might be in the acceptable range. I recommend you to check your specification and confirm this point before proceeding.

Dear experts,
EN AW 5754 H22 welded with ER5356, RT clear but gets failed in tensile.
What can be the reason please guide..
The artilce wleded is a 3 mm thick plate to plate butt joint.
Required YS 0.2 - 130 MPa
I am getting only 103 and 99 MPa.
Required UTS - 220-270 MPa
I am getting - 213 & 205 Mpa
Regards
