Metallic materials - Sheet and strip 3 mm thick or less - Reverse bend test (ISO/DIS 7799:2026)

Specifies the method for determining the ability of sheet and strip to undergo plastic deformation in reverse bending. Can be applied to aluminium and its alloys only after previous agreement. The reverse bend test consists of repeated bending through 90 , in opposite directions, of a rectangular test piece held at one end, each bend being over a cylindrical support of specified radius.

Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Structural products for construction works - Performance assessment and declaration

This document covers products made of aluminium and aluminium alloys intended to be used as structural elements in construction works, including its use in installations. A product may be delivered in its final shape in coils or in one of the following forms: — extruded rods, bars, tubes and profiles; — cold-drawn rods and bars; — precision profiles; — sheets and strips including coil-coated sheets and strips; — plates including tread plates; — drawn tubes and wires; — castings; — forgings. When delivered in coils, the characteristics are assessed on samples taken after de-coiling, straightening, cutting and bending according to the applicable factory production control procedure. Procedures for assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) of characteristics of structural elements made of aluminium and aluminium alloys are specified in this document. Products delivered in other forms, e.g. delivered after machining or joining operations such as bolting and welding, are excluded from the scope of this document.

Metallic materials - Tensile testing - Tensile test on foils and strips of metals with a nominal thickness less than 0,200 mm by using computer-controlled testing machines

This document specifies a method for tensile testing of test pieces of foil and strip of metals with a nominal thickness less than 0,200 mm by using computer-controlled testing machines. The used test pieces according to this document are rectangular (parallel sided strips) and are prepared by cutting. This method is used to determine typically the proof strength, Rp0,2, the tensile strength, Rm, the percentage plastic extension at fracture, Ax mm, (using the automatic determination by the machine) or the (plastic) elongation after fracture, Ax mm, (by manual determination). NOTE 1 The use of a computer-controlled tensile testing machine is important to apply parameters and fulfil several procedures. NOTE 2 EN ISO 6892 1:2019 Annex B specifies test pieces (shape, dimensions, preparation, determination of the original cross-sectional area) for thin products flats between 0,1 mm and 3 mm thickness. EN ISO 6892 1:2019 Clause B.1 specifies requirements for products of less than 0,5 mm thickness, which can require special precautions. NOTE 3 This document and EN ISO 6892 1:2019 Annex B both apply to products of thickness between 0,1 mm and 0,2 mm. For further information, see Clause 5.

Metallic materials - Unified method of test for the determination of quasistatic fracture toughness (ISO 12135:2021, including corrected version 2022-08)

This document specifies methods for determining fracture toughness in terms of K, δ, J and R-curves for homogeneous metallic materials subjected to quasistatic loading. Specimens are notched, precracked by fatigue and tested under slowly increasing displacement. The fracture toughness is determined for individual specimens at or after the onset of ductile crack extension or at the onset of ductile crack instability or unstable crack extension. In cases where cracks grow in a stable manner under ductile tearing conditions, a resistance curve describing fracture toughness as a function of crack extension is measured. In some cases in the testing of ferritic materials, unstable crack extension can occur by cleavage or ductile crack initiation and growth, interrupted by cleavage extension. The fracture toughness at crack arrest is not covered by this document. Special testing requirements and analysis procedures are necessary when testing weldments, and these are described in ISO 15653 which is complementary to this document. Statistical variability of the results strongly depends on the fracture type, for instance, fracture toughness associated with cleavage fracture in ferritic steels can show large variation. For applications that require high reliability, a statistical approach can be used to quantify the variability in fracture toughness in the ductile-to-brittle transition region, such as that given in ASTM E1921. However, it is not the purpose of this document to specify the number of tests to be carried out nor how the results of the tests are to be applied or interpreted.

Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Terms and definitions - Part 1: General terms

This European Standard defines general terms relating to products of aluminium and aluminium alloys which are helpful for communication within the aluminium industry and with its customers . It includes terms dealing with aluminium products, processing, sampling and testing, product characteristics and different types of visual quality characteristics. It does not include terms dealing with bauxite mining, alumina and anode production and aluminium smelting. This European Standard tries to adhere as closely as possible to the terms and definitions used in other standards or documents. NOTE For materials other than aluminium, different definitions can apply to terms which are defined in this document. This European Standard tries to follow the "common language" as it is used in native English speaking countries, without giving preference to specific idioms of any one of these counties. In cases where in different English-speaking countries different terms are used for the same concept or different concepts refer to an identical term, the appropriate explanations are given.

Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Coil coated sheet and strip for general applications - Specifications

This document specifies the particular requirements for wrought aluminium and wrought aluminium alloys in the form of coil coated sheet and strip for general applications. This product is generally supplied in thicknesses up to 3,0 mm. It is applicable to cold-rolled aluminium and aluminium alloy strip coated by the coil coating process both with liquid as well as with powder paints, either in the final width or slit afterwards, and to sheet obtained from such strip. It does not apply to coil coated sheet and strip used for special applications such as cans, closures and lids which are dealt with in separate EN 541.
