The Variations of Charpy V-Notch Impact Test Properties In Steel Plates

Abstract

A survey of the variation to be expected in Charpy V-Notch tests obtained from plates was conducted by the Committee on Product Standards at the request of the Committee on General Metallurgy. The results of the survey are presented in this report.

The survey data consisted of longitudinal and transverse impact test values obtained from seven specified locations on plates produced to ASTM A-572 as-rolled, A-516 normalized and A-537 quenched and tempered. Three testing temperatures were used for each grade.

The data were collected from industry production during 1973 and 1974. Sufficient data were received to estimate limits of variation for impact tests taken at specified locations in plates.--Summary
