BS EN ISO 9017:2018 specifies the sizes of test specimen and the procedures for carrying out fracture tests in order to obtain information about types, sizes and distribution of internal imperfections such as porosities, cracks, lack of fusion, lack of penetration and solid inclusions on the fracture surface.
BS EN ISO 9017:2018 applies to metallic materials in all forms of product with joints made by any fusion welding process with a thickness greater or equal to 2 mm.
Fracture the joint through the weld metal in order to examine the fracture surface. The fracture can be induced by bending or tension, static or dynamic loading. Furthermore, notch dimensions and temperature can be varied to induce the fracture
Unless otherwise specified, the test shall be carried out at ambient temperature.
