4、ary requirement applies only when specified in thepurchase order.1.3 The text of this specification references notes andfootnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes andfootnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not beconsidered as requirements of the specification.1.4 This
5、specification is applicable for orders in eitherinch-pound units (as Specification A722) or in SI units (asSpecification A722M).1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound or SI units are tobe regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI unitsare shown in brackets. The values stated in ea
6、ch system maynot be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be usedindependently of the other. Combining values from the twosystems may result in non-conformance with the specification.2.

A measuredlength of the bar specimen shall be considered the distancefrom a po
32、int on a deformation to a corresponding point on anyother deformation on the same side of the bar.11.2 The average height of deformations shall be deter-mined from measurements made on not less than two typicaldeformations. Determinations shall be based on three measure-ments per deformation: one at
33、 the center of the overall length,and the other two at the quarter points of the overall length.11.3 To indicate adequately the conformity to the dimen-sional requirements, measurements shall be taken at randomfrom one bar from each 39 tons 36 tonnes of each lot orfraction thereof.11.4 Insufficient
34、height, insufficient projected area, or ex-cessive spacing of deformations shall not constitute cause forrejection unless it has been clearly established by determina-tions on each lot that typical deformation height or spacingdoes not conform to the minimum requirements prescribed inSection 10. No
35、rejection shall be made on the basis ofmeasurements if fewer than ten adjacent deformations on eachside of the bar are measured.NOTE 1As used within the intent of 11.3, the term “lot” means all barsof the same nominal weight mass per linear foot metre contained in anindividual shipping release or sh

40、 forth inthe specification where such inspections are deemed necessaryto assure that the material furnished conforms to prescribedrequirements.15. Rejection and Rehearing15.1 Any rejection based on tests made in accordance with5.2 shall be promptly reported to the manufacturer.15.2 Material that sho
41、ws injurious defects subsequent to itsacceptance at the manufacturers facility shall be subject torejection, and the manufacturer shall be notified.15.3 Samples tested in accordance with 5.2 that representrejected material shall be preserved for two weeks from thedate rejection is reported to the ma
42、nufacturer. In case ofdissatisfaction with the results of the tests, the manufacturershall be permitted to make claim for a rehearing within thattime.16.
