Evidence of laminated orunsound material that is revealed during the entire flatteningtest shall be cause for rejection.10.4 Surface imperfections not found in the test specimenbefore flattening, but revealed during the first step of thefl
39、attening test, shall be judged in accordance with Section 15.10.5 When low D-to-t ratio tubulars are tested, because thestrain imposed due to geometry is unreasonably high on theinside surface at the 6 and 12 oclock locations, cracks at theselocations shall not be cause for rejection if the D-to-t r

Permissible Variations in Dimensions11.1 Outside Dimensions:11.1.1 Round Structural TubingThe outside diametershall not vary more than 60.5 %, rounded to the nearest 0.005in. 0.1 mm, from the specified outside diameter for specifiedoutside diameters 1.900 in. 48 mm and smalle

The maximum wallthickness, excluding the weld seam of welded tubing, shall benot more than 10 % greater than the specified wall thickness.For square and rectangular tubing,
44、the wall thickness require-ments shall apply only to the centers of the flats.11.3 LengthStructural tubing is normally produced inrandom lengths 5 ft 1.5 m and over, in multiple lengths, andin specific lengths. Refer to Section 4. When specific lengthsare ordered, the length tolerance shall be in ac
45、cordance withTable 4.11.4 StraightnessThe permissible variation for straight-ness of structural tubing shall be18 in. times the number offeet 10 mm times the number of metres of total length dividedby 5.11.5 Squareness of SidesFor square and rectangular struc-tural tubing, adjacent sides shall be sq
46、uare (90), with apermissible variation of 62 max.11.6 Radius of CornersFor square and rectangular struc-tural tubing, the radius of each outside corner of the sectionshall not exceed three times the specified wall thickness.11.7 TwistFor square and rectangular structural tubing,the permissible varia
47、tions in twist shall be as given in Table 5.Twist shall be determined by holding one end of the tubingdown on a flat surface plate, measuring the height that eachcorner on the bottom side of the tubing extends above thesurface plate near the opposite ends of the tubing, andcalculating the twist (the
48、 difference in heights of such corners),except that for heavier sections it shall be permissible to use asuitable measuring device to determine twist. Twist measure-ments shall not be taken within 2 in. 5 cm of the ends of thetubing.12. Special Shape Structural Tubing12.1 The availability, dimension
