(Main)Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Bend tests
Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Bend tests
This standard specifies a method for making transverse root, face and side bend tests on test specimens taken from butt welds with cladding (subdivided into welds in clad plates and clad welds) and cladding without butt welds in order to assess ductility and/or absence of imperfections on or near to the surface of the joint. It also gives the dimensions of the test specimen. In addition this standard specifies a method for making longitudinal root and face bend tests to be used instead of transverse bend tests for heterogeneous assemblies when base materials and/or filler metal have a significant difference in their physical and mechanical properties in relation to bending. This standard applies to metallic materials in all forms of product with welded joints made by any fusion arc welding process. Side bend tests may be carried out when the wall thickness is greater than 12 mm.
Zerstörende Prüfungen von Schweißnähten an metallischen Werkstoffen - Biegeprüfungen
Diese Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Durchführung von wurzelseitigen und oberseitigen Querbiegeprüfungen sowie von Seitenbiegeprüfungen an Proben fest, die entweder aus Stumpfschweißverbindungen oder aus Stumpfschweißverbindungen mit Plattierungen (unterteilt in Schweißungen von plattierten Blechen und Plattierungsschweißungen) sowie Plattierungen ohne Stumpfschweißungen entnommen wurden, um die Verformbarkeit und/oder das Fehlen von Unregelmäßigkeiten auf oder nahe der Oberfläche der Verbindung zu beurteilen. Sie gibt außerdem die Maße für die Proben an.
Essais destructifs des soudures sur matériaux métalliques - Essais de pliage
La présente norme spécifie une méthode d'essai de pliage transversal, endroit, envers et de côté sur des éprouvettes prélevées dans des soudures bout à bout, des soudures bout à bout avec revêtement (subdivisées en soudures de tôles revêtues et soudures de revêtement) et revêtement sans soudure bout à bout pour vérifier la ductilité et/ou l'absence d'imperfections sur la surface ou près de la surface de l'assemblage. Elle fixe également les dimensions de l'éprouvette.
