28、ts for the particular grade of pipeordered, the manufacturer may elect to make retests on twoadditional lengths of pipe from the same lot, each of whichshall conform to the requirements prescribed in Table 2.Ifoneor both of the retests fail to conform to the requirements, themanufacturer may elect t

29、o test each of the remaining lengths ofpipe in the lot. Retests are required only for the particular testwith which the pipe specimen did not comply originally.7.4 All test specimens which are flattened cold may bereheat treated before machining.8.

33、tic Test9.1 Each length of pipe with wall thickness of12 in. (12.7mm) and less shall be tested to a hydrostatic pressure whichwill produce in the pipe wall a stress of not less than 85 % ofthe minimum specified yield point. This pressure shall bedetermined by the following equation:P 5 2St/DTABLE 2
