The average value of the three specimens shall meet the specified r equirements.For eachnotch location one individual value may be belowthe minimum average value

26、specified, provided that it is not lessthan 70 % ofthat value.For dissimilar metal joints impact tests shall be carried out on specimens from each HAZ in each parent metal.Where multiple welding process es are qualified in a single test piece, impact test specimens shall be taken fromthe weld metal

27、and HAZ that include each process.7.4.6 Hardness testingVickers hardnesstesting with a load of HV10 shall be performed in accordance with EN 1043-1. Hardnessmeasurements shall be taken in the weld, the heat affected zones and the parent metal in order to evaluate therange of hardnessvalues across th

Formaterial thicknessesover 5 mm,two rows of indentations shall be made at a depth of up to 2 mm below the upperand lower

29、 surfaces of the of the welded joint. For double sided welds, fillet and T-butt welds, one additional row ofindentations shall be made through the root area. Examples of typical indentation patterns are shown in Figures 1a), b), e) and f) of EN 1043-1:1995 and Figures 3 and 4.For each rowof indentat
