3.8.2 When the results from a set of three impact test specimens fail to meet the requirements, the testunit is rejected, or alternatively, three additional test specimens from the same sample may be tested. Theresults are added to those previously obtained. The test unit may be accepted if:
— the average of all six specimens complies with the requirements, and— not more than two individual results are lower than the specified minimum average requirement and— of these, not more than one result is below 70% of the specified minimum average requirement.
3.8.3 If unsatisfactory results are obtained from retests representative of a test unit, see [3.8.2], theproduct from which the tests were made shall be rejected. The remaining material in the test unit may beaccepted provided that two further products are tested with satisfactory result.
3.8.4 When a test unit is rejected, see [3.8.2] and [3.8.3], the remaining products in the test unit may beresubmitted individually for test, and those which give satisfactory results may be accepted.
3.8.5 At the option of the manufacturer, rejected material may be resubmitted after heat-treatment orreheat-treatment, or may be resubmitted as another grade and may then be accepted provided the requiredtests are satisfactory.Where the material is submitted to heat treatment or re-heat treatment, all the tests previously performedshall be repeated and the results shall meet the specified requirements.
3.8.6 If any test fails because of faulty specimen preparation, visible defects or in the case of tensile testbecause of fracturing outside the range permitted for the appropriate gauge length, the defective testspecimen may be disregarded and replaced by an additional test specimen of the same type.
3.8.7 If a large proportion of the products fail the tests, e.g. because of constantly recurring manufacturingdefects, the entire delivery may be rejected by the Society.

2.1 General requirements
2.1.1 The preparation shall be done in such a manner that test specimens are not subjected to anysignificant cold straining or heating.
2.1.2 If samples are cut from material by flame cutting or shearing, a reasonable margin is required toenable sufficient material to be removed from the cut edges during final machining.
Guidance note:A margin of 10 mm may normally be considered sufficient. Smaller margins may be considered for acceptance subject to approvalbased on qualification by adequate testing. Qualification testing should at least comprise metallographic test, hardness test profileand comparative mechanical tests.
---e-n-d---o-f---g-u-i-d-a-n-c-e---n-o-t-e---
2.1.3 Where possible, test specimens from rolled materials shall retain their rolled surface on both sides.The surface quality of the specimens shall be as prescribed in the appropriate standards, i.e. notches,grooves and burrs which occur during the preparation of test specimens and which may affect the test resultsshall be removed.The dimensional and geometrical tolerances of the specimens shall be as prescribed in the appropriate rulesand standards.
2.1.4 If possible, the test specimens shall be taken in such a way that straightening is unnecessary. If testsections have to be straightened, e.g. in the case of transverse specimens from pipes, the straighteningoperation shall be performed in the cold state and shall not significantly affect the mechanical properties ofthe material. Tensile specimens taken from the pipe wall in the longitudinal direction shall not be pressed flatbetween the gauge marks.

When the capacity of the availabletesting machine is insufficient to allow the use of test specimens of full thickness, the test specimen maybe reduced in thickness by machining one of the rolled surfaces. Alternatively, for materials over 40 mmthickness, proportional round test specimen according to alternative C may be used. When round testspecimen is used, and unless otherwise specified, it shall be positioned with its axis at one-quarter of thethickness from a rolled surface (and for extra high strength steels, additionally at t/2 for thicknesses above100 mm) or as near as possible to these positions.

Round specimens may alternatively be usedfor product thicknesses exceeding 12.5 mm (alternative C, see Table 2). For product thicknesses up to andincluding 40 mm, the longitudinal axis of the round specimens shall be located at mid-thickness. For productthickness exceeding 40 mm, the longitudinal axis of round specimens shall be located at ¼ of the productthickness measured from one face.

3.1.12 Pipes and tubesTest specimen according to alternative E or F shall be used, see Table 2 and Figure 3. Alternatively, providedsufficient wall thickness, round specimens according to alternative C as prescribed in Table 2 may also beused. Round specimens shall then be taken from the sample in such a way that their axis is located at themid-point of the wall thickness.

3.2 Tensile testing at elevated temperatureTesting shall be carried out according to a national or international standard for tensile test at elevatedtemperature, e.g. ISO 6892-2.Round test specimens are permissible for tensile tests at elevated temperature for all thicknesses. Regardingthe position in the product, the same requirements as specified in [3.1] are applicable.
3.3 Impact testing
3.3.1 Impact testing shall be carried out as Charpy V-notch test according to the specification inquestion. The average value of three test specimens shall be determined and meet the specified minimumrequirement. One individual value may be below the specified value, provided that it is not less than 70% ofthe specified minimum.
3.3.2 The Charpy V-notch impact toughness is the absorbed energy, expressed in joule (J), the symbol beingKV. The test results shall be measured to an accuracy of 1 Joule.
3.3.3 The Charpy impact test machine shall be of a type acceptable to the Society having a gap of 40 mm,a striking velocity between 4.5 and 7 m/s (see Table 3). and an impact energy of not less than 150 J. Theangle between the striking edges of the pendulum shall be 30° with the edge rounded to a radius 2 to 2.5mm. (Pendulum according to ASTM E 23 will also be accepted).The point of impact of the hammer shall be in the centre line of the notch. The test arrangement is shown inFigure 4, with the tolerances given in Table 3.

3.3.4 Samples may be flame-cut but the notch shall not to be closer to a flame-cut edge than 25 mm. Thenotch shall be made in a single cut by a special milling cutter. The cutter shall be kept sharp so that theshape of the notch is correct safeguarding that cold working at the base is avoided as far as possible. Thecutter shall be systematically checked at intervals not exceeding 100 test specimens.The notch shall be cut in a face of the impact test specimens which was originally perpendicular to a rolledor forged surface, unless otherwise stated. For placing the notch in the appropriate microstructure, e.g. forqualification of welding procedures, the fusion boundary shall be identified by etching the specimens with asuitable reagent.
3.3.5 Dimensions and tolerances for standard Charpy V-notch test specimens shall be as given in Table 4.

specimens with width 7.5 mm or 5 mm shall be used. The required energy values are then reduced to 5/6and 2/3 of tabulated values, respectively. Except as specified for materials for low temperature service inPt.5 Ch.7, impact tests are not required when the material thickness is less than 6 mm. For materials for lowtemperature service (see Pt.5 Ch.7), the testing and requirements for specimens smaller than 5 mm in sizeshall be in accordance with recognized standards, e.g. ASTM E23.
3.3.7 The temperature shall be controlled sufficiently to ensure uniformity throughout the cross-section ofthe test specimen at breaking. Unless otherwise agreed, conditioning and specimen transfer shall complywith ISO 148-1 or an equivalent standard.Test temperature shall be stated in the certificate.

3.3.8 When required, the crystalline proportion of the fracture surface and the lateral expansion at the pointof fracture shall be determined. The crystalline proportion of the fracture surface shall then be estimated andexpressed as a percentage of the total area of the fracture. The lateral expansion shall be measured to
