This is the last report of a c reports detailing the small-scale mechanical testing performed on the trial welds in this consolidated program. This report summarizes and compares the results of all of the mechanical tests applied primarily to welds of rounds 1 and 2, including tensile results and their correlation with microstructure, Charpy test results, conventional (through-thickness-notched) toughness tests, and low-constraint toughness tests. The reports contains a summary of the mechanical properties of the experimental single and dual torch GMAW-P X100 pipe welds prepared for this consolidated...
This is the last report of a c reports detailing the small-scale mechanical testing performed on the trial welds in this consolidated program. This report summarizes and compares the results of all of the mechanical tests applied primarily to welds of rounds 1 and 2, including tensile results and their correlation with microstructure, Charpy test results, conventional (through-thickness-notched) toughness tests, and low-constraint toughness tests. The reports contains a summary of the mechanical properties of the experimental single and dual torch GMAW-P X100 pipe welds prepared for this consolidated program. It summarizes the detailed results reported in Final Reports 277-T-05, 277-T-06 and 277-T-07. The intent of this summary is to provide insight and understanding of the significance of the results and the implications for mechanical testing of weldments to extract properties essential for strain-based design (SBD).
