Significance and Use3.1 The primary use of these test methods is testing todetermine the specified mechan

23、ical properties of steel, stainlesssteel and related alloy products for the evaluation of confor-mance of such products to a material specification under thejurisdiction of ASTM Committee A01 and its subcommitteesas designated by a purchaser in a purchase order or contract.3.1.1 These test methods m

24、ay be and are used by otherASTM Committees and other standards writing bodies for thepurpose of conformance testing.3.1.2 The material condition at the time of testing, samplingfrequency, specimen location and orientation, reportingrequirements, and other test parameters are contained in thepertinen

25、t material specification or in a General RequirementSpecification for the particular product form.3.1.3 Some material specifications require the use of addi-tional test methods not described herein; in such cases, therequired test method is described in that material specificationor by reference to

26、another appropriate test method standard.3.2 These test methods are also suitable to be used fortesting of steel, stainless steel and related alloy materials forother purposes, such as incoming material acceptance testingby the purchaser or evaluation of components after serviceexposure.3.2.1 As wit

27、h any mechanical testing, deviations from eitherspecification limits or expected as-manufactured properties canoccur for valid reasons besides deficiency of the originalas-fabricated product. These reasons include, but are notlimited to: subsequent service degradation from environmentalexposure (for

28、 example, temperature, corrosion); static or cyclicservice stress effects, mechanically-induced damage, materialinhomogeneity, anisotropic structure, natural aging of selectalloys, further processing not included in the specification,sampling limitations, and measuring equipment calibrationuncertain

29、ty. There is statistical variation in all aspects ofmechanical testing and variations in test results from prior testsare expected. An understanding of possible reasons for devia-tion from specified or expected test values should be applied ininterpretation of test results.4. General Precautions4.1

30、Certain methods of fabrication, such as bending,forming, and welding, or operations involving heating, mayaffect the properties of the material under test. Therefore, theproduct specifications cover the stage of manufacture at whichmechanical testing is to be performed. The properties shown bytestin

31、g prior to fabrication may not necessarily be representa-tive of the product after it has been completely fabricated.4.2 Improperly machined specimens should be discardedand other specimens substituted.4.3 Flaws in the specimen may also affect results. If any testspecimen develops flaws, the retest

32、provision of the applicableproduct specification shall govern.4.4 If any test specimen fails because of mechanical reasonssuch as failure of testing equipment or improper specimenpreparation, it may be discarded and another specimen taken.5. Orientation of Test Specimens5.1 The terms “longitudinal t

33、est” and “transverse test” areused only in material specifications for wrought products andare not applicable to castings. When such reference is made toa test coupon or test specimen, the following definitions apply:5.1.1 Longitudinal Test, unless specifically definedotherwise, signifies that the l

34、engthwise axis of the specimen isparallel to the direction of the greatest extension of the steelduring rolling or forging. The stress applied to a longitudinaltension test specimen is in the direction of the greatestextension, and the axis of the fold of a longitudinal bend testspecimen is at right

35、 angles to the direction of greatest extension(Fig. 1, Fig. 2a, and Fig. 2b).5.1.2 Transverse Test, unless specifically defined otherwise,signifies that the lengthwise axis of the specimen is at right4Available from American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), ASMEInternational Headquarters, Two

Description6.1 The tension test related to the mechanical testing of steelproducts subjects a machined or full-section specimen of thematerial under examination to a measured load suf

41、ficient tocause rupture. The resulting properties sought are defined inTerminology E6.6.2 In general, the testing equipment and methods are givenin Test Methods E8/E8M. However, there are certain excep-tions to Test Methods E8/E8M practices in the testing of steel,and these are covered in these test

42、 methods.7. Terminology7.1 For definitions of terms pertaining to tension testing,including tensile strength, yield point, yield strength,elongation, and reduction of area, reference should be made toTerminology E6.8. Testing Apparatus and Operations8.1 Loading SystemsThere are two general types of

43、load-ing systems, mechanical (screw power) and hydraulic. Thesediffer chiefly in the variability of the rate of load application.The older screw power machines are limited to a small numberof fixed free running crosshead speeds. Some modern screwpower machines, and all hydraulic machines permit step

44、lessvariation throughout the range of speeds.8.2 The tension testing machine shall be maintained in goodoperating condition, used only in the proper loading range, andcalibrated periodically in accordance with the latest revision ofPractices E4.NOTE 2Many machines are equipped with stress-strain rec

45、orders forautographic plotting of stress-strain curves. It should be noted that somerecorders have a load measuring component entirely separate from theload indicator of the testing machine. Such recorders are calibratedseparately.8.3 LoadingIt is the function of the gripping or holdingdevice of the

46、 testing machine to transmit the load from theheads of the machine to the specimen under test. The essentialrequirement is that the load shall be transmitted axially. Thisimplies that the centers of the action of the grips shall be inalignment, insofar as practicable, with the axis of the specimenat

47、 the beginning and during the test and that bending ortwisting be held to a minimum. For specimens with a reducedsection, gripping of the specimen shall be restricted to the gripsection. In the case of certain sections tested in full size,nonaxial loading is unavoidable and in such cases shall beper

48、missible.8.4 Speed of TestingThe speed of testing shall not begreater than that at which load and strain readings can be madeaccurately. In production testing, speed of testing is commonlyexpressed: (1) in terms of free running crosshead speed (rate ofmovement of the crosshead of the testing machine

49、 when notunder load), (2) in terms of rate of separation of the two headsof the testing machine under load, (3) in terms of rate ofstressing the specimen, or (4) in terms of rate of straining thespecimen. The following limitations on the speed of testing arerecommended as adequate for most steel products:NOTE 3Tension tests using closed-loop machines (with feedbackcontrol of rate) should not be performed using load control, as this modeof testing will result in acceleration of the crosshead upon yielding andelevation of the measured yield strength.8.4.1 Any conv
