22、g using the four-point bend method1 ScopeThis International Standard provides guidelines for the use of four-point bend testing to evaluate the resistance of metals including carbon steel, low alloy steels, and corrosion resistant alloys (CRAs) to stress corrosion cracking. The method gives guidance

23、 on testing of both parent plate and welds and includes procedures for metals that have no distinct yield point in their stress-strain behaviour as well as metals with a distinct yield point. The emphasis in this International Standard is on the generic methodology of the four-point bend test. Servi

24、ce application will be varied and the relevant industry standard is to be consulted where appropriate.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

Such soft zones are typically associated with welds in carbon steels.4 PrincipleThe four-point bend test is a constant displacement test that is performed by supp

29、orting a beam specimen on two loading rollers (bearing cylinders) and applying a load through two other loading INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16540:2015(E) ISO 2015 All rights reserved 1BS ISO 16540:2015ISO 16540:2015(E)rollers so that one face of the specimen is in tension (and uniformly stressed betw

30、een the inner rollers) and the other is in compression. The stress at mid-thickness is zero and there will be significant gradients in stress through the thickness, this being most marked for thin specimens. As a consequence, cracks may initiate, but then arrest or their growth rate decrease. Hence,

31、 complete fracture might not always occur during the test exposure period. Important parameters are roller spacing, ratio between outer and inner span, specimen dimensions, width-to-thickness ratio, and roller diameter. Testing of as-welded specimens presents a particular challenge due to significan

32、t variations in root profile, surface roughness, extent of micro-cracks, and degree of misalignment.5 Loading jig design5.1 A loading jig similar to that shown in Figure 1 shall be used to apply a constant deflection to the specimen. The dimensions are often chosen so that A = H/4.5.2 Specimens of t

33、hickness up to 5 mm present few problems for parent material specimens as they can be easily accommodated in test vessels of modest size with typical dimensions for the loading jig of the following: spacing between inner rollers: 50 mm-60 mm; spacing between outer rollers: 100 mm-130 mm; roller diam

34、eter: 6 mm-10 mm.5.3 Thicker specimens, up to full wall thickness, are advisable for testing welded specimens. Here, there is a balance between minimizing the load by increasing the spacing between span supports and accommodating the increased size of the jig with possible constraints associated wit

35、h the size of the test vessel. This is an individual judgement.Keyt specimen thicknessA distance between the inner and outer supportsH distance between the outer supportsFigure 1 Typical four-point bend loading jig design2 ISO 2015 All rights reservedBS ISO 16540:2015ISO 16540:2015(E)5.4 The specime

36、n shall be electrically isolated from the loading jig in order to avoid undesirable galvanic and crevice corrosion. This is best achieved by the use of ceramic rollers as these also satisfy the additional requirement that the rollers should not exhibit any yielding or creep during the test.5.5 Frict

37、ion between the rollers (bearing cylinders) and the specimen should be minimised to ensure that frictional constraint does not impact on the stress distribution in the specimen. This is best achieved by the use of ceramic rollers that have a low friction contact surface and can be further reduced if

38、 they are free to rotate while loading the test specimen. In the absence of free rotation, there will be some effect of friction on the force required to achieve the required strain. However, provided the specimen is strain gauged and the frictional forces are not excessive, this will not impact on

39、the test results. Nevertheless, an increase in friction will increase the stress and strain on the tensile surface locally at the inner loading pins and can enhance the likelihood of cracks forming in the specimen at those locations (see Clause 11). The extent of overstraining for a particular loadi

40、ng jig can be assessed by strain gauging in that region for a typical test condition.5.6 The material of construction of the loading jig shall be resistant to stress corrosion cracking in the test environment and the jig should be sufficiently rigid. Contamination of the solution with corrosion prod

41、ucts from the jig material shall be minimized to avoid impacting on the test results. This can be achieved by the use of corrosion resistant alloys or by application of a coating to the jig. When testing carbon and low alloy steels with higher alloyed jigs, electrical bridging from corrosion product

42、s is a possibility and electrical resistance checks shall be made at test termination. Where electrical isolation is not undertaken, then the material of construction of the jigs shall be similar to that of the specimens. For testing of carbon and low alloy steel specimens, adoption of low alloy ste

43、el jigs may be preferred to ensure an absence of galvanic interaction. In this case, a suitable inert coating may be applied to the jigs to minimize accumulation of corrosion products.6 Specimen preparation6.1 General6.1.1 Four-point bend specimens shall be flat strips of metal of uniform rectangula

44、r cross section and uniform thickness except in the case of testing welded specimens with one face in the as-welded condition for which a non-uniform cross section is inherent, or when testing the inner surface of piping material in its original surface state (for which the surface would be concave)

45、 or outer surface of a piping material in its original surface state (for which the surface would be convex).6.1.2 Identification marks or numbers shall be permanently inscribed on each end of the specimen. This is the region of lowest stress and the identification marks should therefore not initiat

46、e cracking.6.1.3 Specimen preparation techniques which generate hydrogen at the specimen surface, e.g. electric discharge machining, should not be used on materials that are susceptible to hydrogen-induced damage. If the use of such techniques is necessary, a final grinding of the outer surfaces of

47、the specimen shall be carried out to remove material containing retained hydrogen. The grinding shall be carried out as soon as possible to minimize the time available for the hydrogen to diffuse into the specimen from the outer surface. The thickness removed should reflect conservative evaluation o

48、f the effective hydrogen diffusivity in the material. For most corrosion resistant alloys, removal of 500 m from each surface of the specimen is sufficient. Baking out of the hydrogen can also be considered, but only where this does not introduce changes in the material microstructure/microchemistry

49、.6.2 Parent material specimens6.2.1 Parent material specimens shall be machined, avoiding sharp edges, from the pipe or plate in the longitudinal direction unless otherwise specified.
