Scope

This International Standard specifies the sizes of test specimen and the procedure for carrying out transverse tensile tests in order to determine the tensile strength and the location of fracture of a welded butt joint. This International Standard applies to metallic materials in all forms of product with joints made by any fusion welding process. Unless otherwise specified for specific points in this International Standard, the general principles of ISO 6892 apply.

Normative references

The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of ISO and IEC maintain registers of currently valid International Standards. ISO 4063:1998, Welding and allied processes Nomenclature of processes and reference numbers. ISO 6892, Metallic materials Tensile testing at ambient temperature.

Principle

An increasing tensile load is continuously applied until rupture occurs in a test specimen taken transversely from a welded joint. Unless otherwise specified, the test shall be carried out at ambient temperature (23 5) C

Symbols and abbreviated terms

The symbols and abbreviated terms to be used for the transverse tensile tests are specified in Table 1 and represented in Figures 1 to 3.

The term "pipe", alone or in combination, is used to mean "pipe", "tube" or "hollow section (without rectangular cross section)".

5.1

Preparation of test specimens

Location

The test specimen shall be taken transversely from the welded joint in such a way that, after machining, the weld axis remains in the middle of the parallel length of the test specimen. For small diameter pipes, the test may be carried out on whole pipe (see Figure 3). If not specified by the application standards or agreed upon between the contracting parties, small diameters means D < 18 mm.

5.2

Marking

Each test piece shall be marked in order to identify its exact location in the manufactured product or in the joint from which it has been removed. If required by the relevant application standard, the direction of working (e.g. rolling or extrusion) shall be marked. Each test specimen shall be marked in order to identify its exact location in the test piece from which it has been removed. When removed from the test piece, each test specimen shall be marked.

5.3

Heat treatment and/or ageing

No heat treatment shall be applied to the welded joint or to the test specimen unless it is specified or allowed by the relevant application standard dealing with the welded joint to be tested. Details of any heat treatment shall be recorded in the test report. If natural ageing of aluminium alloys takes place, the time between welding and testing shall be recorded.
NOTE The presence of hydrogen in ferrous weld metals may adversely affect the test results and suitable hydrogen release treatment may be necessary.

5.4.1

Extraction
General

The mechanical or thermal processes used to extract the test specimen shall not change the properties of the test specimen in any way. 5.4.2 Steel

Shearing is excluded for thicknesses > 8 mm. If thermal cutting or other cutting methods which could affect the cut surfaces are used to cut the test specimen from the welded plate or from the test piece, the cuts shall be made at a distance W 8 mm from the surfaces of the final parallel length of the test specimen. Thermal cutting shall not be used parallel to the original surface of the welded plate or of the test piece. 5.4.3 Other metallic materials

Shearing and thermal cutting are excluded, and only machining (e.g. sawing or milling) shall be used.

5.5
5.5.1

Machining
General

The tolerances specified in ISO 6892 shall apply. 5.5.2 Location

In general, the thickness of the test specimen, ts, shall be equal to the thickness of the parent metal near the welded joint [see Figure 1a)]. When a relevant application standard requires testing of the full thickness > 30 mm, several test specimens may be taken to cover the full thickness of the joint [see Figure 1b)]. In such cases, the location of the test specimen in the welded joint thickness shall be identified.

a) Full section test

NOTE

The test pieces may overlap. b) Multi specimen test

Dimensions Plates and pipes

The thickness of the test specimen shall be constant along the parallel length, Lc; the shape and dimensions shall conform to those given in Table 2 with reference to the symbols shown in Figure 2. For the test specimen machined from pipe, flattening of the gripped ends may be necessary; however, this flattening and the possible resulting variation in thickness shall not affect the parallel length, Lc.

The final stages of preparation shall be performed by machining or grinding, suitable precautions being taken to avoid superficial strain hardening or excessive heating of the material. The surfaces shall be free from scratches or notches transverse to the test specimen direction in the parallel length, Lc, except for undercut which shall not be removed unless required by the relevant application standard. The surfaces of the test specimen shall be machined in such a way that, unless specified otherwise in the relevant application standard, all excess weld metal is removed. Unless specified otherwise the penetration bead shall be left intact inside full section pipes.

Test procedure

The test specimen shall be loaded gradually and continuously in accordance with ISO 6892.

7.1

Test results
General

The test results shall be determined in accordance with ISO 6892.

7.2

Location of fracture

The location of the fracture shall be noted and reported. If necessary, the side of the test specimen may be macroetched to assist location of the weld.

7.3

Examination of fracture surfaces

After rupture of the test specimen, the fracture surfaces shall be examined and the existence of any imperfections that may have adversely affected the test shall be recorded, including their type, size and quantity. If fish eyes are present, they shall be recorded and only their central regions shall be considered as imperfections.
