IS 3600 : Part 8 : 2024/ISO 9017 : 2017 Fusion Welded Joints and Weld Metal in Steel - Method of Test - Part 8 Destructive Tests on Welds in Metallic Materials - Fracture Test
NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Part 8) (Third Revision) which is identical to ISO 9017 : 2017 'Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Fracture test' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Welding General and its Applications Sectional Committee and approval of the Metallurgical Engineering Division Council.
This standard was first published in 1966 and subsequently revised in 1973 and 1985. This revision has been undertaken to align it with ISO 9017 : 2017 under dual numbering system to harmonize it with the latest developments that have taken place at international level.
This standard is published in various parts. Other parts in this series are:
| Part 1 | Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Tensile test on cruciform and lapped joints |
| Part 2 | Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Impact tests - Test specimen location, notch orientation and examination |
| Part 3 | Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Transverse tensile test |
| Part 4 | Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Longitudinal tensile test on weld metal in fusion welded joints |
| Part 5 | Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Bend tests |
| Part 9 | Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Macroscopic and microscopic examination of welds |
The text of ISO standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain terminologies and conventions are, however, not identical with those used in Indian Standard. Attention is especially drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, it should be read as 'Indian Standard'; and
b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker, while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
