Advantages Disadvantages
Which properties ?*
1) Hardness*
2) Toughness*
3) Tensile strength*
4) Ductility*
Mechanical:* Describes the actions of “force & motion”
1) Quantitative tests:
Hardness tests
Toughness tests
Tensile strength tests*
2) Qualitative tests:
Macro tests
Bend tests
Fracture tests*
The test weld is usually cut into sections as follows:
The location of specimens will depend upon the standard
