46、ed to amaximum stress.9.1.2 When low D-to-t ratio tubular products are tested,because the strain imposed due to geometry is unreasonablyhigh on the inside surface at the six and twelve oclocklocations, cracks at these locations shall not be cause forrejection if the D-to-t ratio is less than ten (10

47、).9.2 The results from all calculations are to be rounded totwo decimal places. Examination for cracking shall be by theunaided eye.9.3 Welded tube shall be subjected to a reverse flatteningtest in accordance with Supplement II of Test Methods andDefinitions A 370. A section of the tube, approximate

48、ly 4 in.(102 mm) long, that is slit longitudinally 90 either side of theweld, shall be opened and flattened with the weld at the pointof maximum bend. No cracking is permitted.10.
