15、rdance with the method of acceptance testing based on inspection by attributes (seeClause6). 5 Manufacture 5.1 Wire 5.1.1 Material. The wire shall be drawn from steel, made by any process except that the air, and mixed air-oxygen, bottom blown basic converter shall not be used. 5.1.2 Galvanizing. Th

16、e galvanized coating shall comply with the requirements of BS443, unless otherwise agreed between purchaser and manufacturer. 5.1.3 Freedom from defects. The finished wire shall be free from harmful defects. 5.1.4 Joints during wire manufacture. For grades350 and480, welds shall be permitted at the

17、option of the manufacturer at any stage prior to galvanizing. For all other grades there shall be no welds in the wire other than those made in the base rod or wire before drawing. 5.2 Strand lay 5.2.1 The outer wire of all strand shall have a right-hand lay unless otherwise specified by the purchas

18、er. In 19-wire strand the outer twelve wires shall be normally laid up in reverse direction to that of the inner layer, but they may be laid-up in the same direction if agreed between manufacturer and purchaser. 5.2.2 General strand. The lay length of general strand shall be12 to18 times the nominal

19、 overall diameter of the strand. 5.2.3 Railway signalling strand. The lay length of railway signalling strand shall be15to18times the nominal overall diameter of the strand.BS183:1972 2 BSI 01-2000 5.3 Joints during stranding 5.3.1 For grades350 and480 no joints shall be made during stranding if the

20、re are less than5 wires in the strand. 5.3.2 For grades350 and480 if there are5 or7 wires in the strand and for grades700 to1300 if there are7 wires in the strand, joints shall be permitted in the individual wires during stranding, but these stranding joints shall be not less than15m apart in the fi

21、nished strand. 5.3.3 For all grades of19-wire strand, joints in the wire during stranding shall be permitted provided they are kept to a minimum and well spaced. 5.3.4 Joints made during stranding shall be protected against corrosion. NOTEThe normal lengths of strand which can be supplied without st

22、randing joints in the individual wires are given inAppendix A. 6 Inspection and testing Selection of test pieces and all tests shall be carried out in accordance with Clauses7, 8, 9, 10 and 11, at the manufacturers works or if agreed between the purchaser and the manufacturer, in accordance with BS6

23、001. NOTEAttention is drawn to BS6000, “Guide to the use of BS6001, “Sampling procedures and tables for inspection by attributes”. 7 Selection of test pieces 7.1 Care shall be taken to ensure that test pieces are not damaged, either before removing or during removal from the coil. 7.2 General strand

24、. One test piece shall be taken from each coil or drum of strand. Where split lengths are supplied test results on the original coils shall apply. 7.3 Railway signalling strand. The coils shall be arranged in separate batches, each batch consisting of20coils or1000kg, whichever is the greater mass.

25、From each batch, one coil shall be selected by the purchaser or his representative and a test piece taken from this coil. Each batch shall be kept separate until after the tests are made. These batches, the coil from which the test pieces are taken, and the test pieces shall be labelled for identifi

26、cation. 8 Diameter The diameter of the test piece shall be determined with a micrometer by taking two measurements at right angles to each other at three places along a length of not less than250mm, and the average of these six measurements shall be taken as being the diameter of the galvanized wire

27、. The tolerances on the diameter shall be in accordance withTable 1. Table 1 Tolerances on diameter 9 Tensile and elongation test 9.1 Method 9.1.1 The ends of the strand shall be suitably prepared by either filling in the interstices with finer wire, or other approved means, to minimise failure in t

28、he testing machine grips. The load shall be applied at a steady rate not exceeding that equivalent to100N/mm 2per second. An initial load of10% of the specified breaking load shall be applied to the test piece, at which stage the distance apart of the testing machine grips shall be approximately600m

29、m (see9.1.2). 9.1.2 For routine determination of tensile strength only, the straining rate shall be preset to give a separation of the grips not greater than40% of the test length per-minute. In cases of dispute the requirements of9.1.1 shall apply. 9.1.3 The elongation shall be determined as the pe

30、rcentage increase in separation between the grips from the position after application of the initial load to the position at the initial failure in the test piece. Elongation tests shall be made on lengths of strand which do not contain wire joints. 9.1.4 If the test piece breaks within25mm of the g

31、rips of the testing machine, and shows less than the specified elongation, the test shall be disregarded and further tests made until the break occurs more than25mm from the grips. Additional test pieces shall be taken from the same coil or drum when the previous tests are to be disregarded. 9.2 Ten

32、sile test. When tested in accordance with9.1 the minimum breaking load of the strand shall be in accordance with the requirements ofTable 3. 9.3 Elongation test When tested in accordance with9.1 the elongation of the strand in600mm shall be not less than that specified inTable 2.

35、en tested in accordance with BS4545. 12 Retests 12.1 General strand. Should a test piece fail to meet any of the test requirements, two additional tests in respect of the same requirements shall be made on material taken from the same coil. If the results of both additional tests fulfil the requirem

36、ents, the coil shall be deemed to comply with this British Standard. If either of the additional tests do not meet the requirements, the coil shall be deemed not to comply with this British Standard. 12.2 Railway signalling strand. Should a test piece from the coil representing a batch fail to meet

37、any of the test requirements, the retest procedure given in12.1 shall be followed. If both retests fulfil the requirements, the batch represented by the coil shall be deemed to comply with this British Standard. If either retest fails to meet the requirements, the coil shall be deemed not to comply

38、with this British Standard and the remaining coils in the batch shall be tested for compliance with this British Standard. 13 Packing 13.1 Strand other than 19-wire strand. This strand shall be supplied uniformly wound in coils with the diameter of the eye of the coil as indicated in Table 4. Such s

39、trand may be supplied in coils of other eye diameter, or on drums, subject to agreement between the manufacturer and purchaser. Each coil shall be securely bound with four separate binders of galvanized steel wire of not less than2mm nor greater than3.75mm diameter. In no case shall coils be bound o

40、r otherwise fastened together unless specifically agreed by the purchaser. 13.2 Nineteen-wire strand. Unless otherwise agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser19-wire strand shall be supplied on drums, the barrel diameter of which shall be not less than45 times the overall diameter of the c

41、ompleted strand. The lower tensile strength strands may be supplied on drums of smaller barrel diameter by agreement between purchaser and manufacturer. The drum shall be so designed that it will take the mass specified with a flange diameter approximately twice the width of the barrel. 13.3 Railway

42、 signalling strand. For the UK market railway signalling strand shall be packed in coils of2028kilograms, of which not more than10% shall be in coils of less than24kilograms, but strand for export may be supplied in coils of masses as specified by the purchaser, of which not less than90% shall be of

43、 a specified mass and not more than10% above or below this mass. If no masses are specified the mass of each coil shall be between38kilograms and50kilograms. 13.4 Labelling. Each coil or drum shall carry a metal or other approved label marked with the manufacturers name, the designation of the stran

44、d, and the net mass to the nearest half kilogram. In the case of railway signalling strand the label shall also carry the year of supply. 13.5 Wrapping. All coils of strand, other than railway signalling strand, shall be wrapped in hessian and packed and delivered as ordered. Railway signalling stra

45、nd is normally supplied unwrapped in the UK, but if required for export purposes, hessian or other wrapping is required, for single coils and/or bundles. A suitable label giving the gross mass of the coil or bundle and the mass of the packing, shall be attached after packing. 14 Oiling Coils shall be dipped in an oil or other protective compound agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser if specified by the purchaser on his enquiry or order.
