Signals that are found to have beencaused by minor mechanical damage, soil, or moisture shall not be cause for rejection of the material provided the dimensions ofthe m
35、aterial are still within prescribed limits and the material is suitable for its intended application.9.3 Hydrostatic TestWhen specified, the material shall stand, without showing evidence of leakage, an internal hydrostaticpressure sufficient to subject the material to a fiber stress of 6000 psi (41
36、 MPa), determined by the following equation for thinhollow cylinders under tension.
