The polished faceshall be longitudinal to the direction of rolling. The scale usedfor rating the s

Fields with sizes ornumbers of all types of inclusions intermediate betweenconfigurations shown on the chart shall be classified as thelesser of the rating number. The worst field of each inclusiontype from each specim

24、en shall be recorded as the rating for thespecimen. Two thirds of all specimens and at least one fromeach ingot tested, or from the first, middle, and last portion ofthe strands tested, as well as the average of all specimens, shallnot exceed the rating specified in Table 3.8.
