1 Scope
4 Denominations and symbols
This standard specifies hardness tests on transverse

sections of arc welded joints of metallic materials. It
covers Vickers hardness tests in accordance with
Is06507-1, normally with test loads of 49 N or 98 N
(IV 5 or HV 10).
However, the principles may be applied to Brinell
harness testing (with appropriate testing loads of
HB 2,5/15,625 or HEI l/2,5)in accordance with
EN 1OOO3-1 and micro hardness testing in accordance
with IS0 6507-2 and EN 10432.
Testing should be carried out to ensure that the
highest and the lowest level of hardness of both
parent metal and weld metal is determined.
The type and extent of testing shall be as specified by
the relevant application standard or by agreement
between the contracting parties.
The denominations and symbols to be used are

specified in table 1 and represented on figures 1to 8.
This European Standard incorporates, by dated or

undated reference, provisions from other publications.
These nolinative references axe cited at the
appropriate places in the text and the publications are
listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent
amendments to or revisions of any of these
publications apply to this European Standard only
when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.
For undated references the latest edition of the
publication referred to applies.

Hardness testing shall be carried out in accordance

The hardness tests may be carried out in the form of
rows of indentations, R, or as individual
indentations,E.
When types of weld are not shown in the examples in
figures 1 and 2, the test procedure shail be
appropriate to the welded joint.
Unless otherwise specified, the test shall be carried
out at ambient temperature (23 f 5) "C.

5 Preparation of test specimens

The preparation of the test specimen shall be in
accordance with IS0 6507-1, IS0 6507-2 or EN 100031.
A cross-section of test piece shall be taken by
mechanical cutting, usually transverse to the welded
joint.
This operation and the subsequent preparation of the
surface shall be carried out carefully so that the
hardness of the surface to be tested is not affected
metaurgidy.
The surface to be tested shall be properly prepared
and preferably etched, so that accurate measurements
of the dmgonal of the indentations can be achieved in
the different zones of the welded joint.
6 Wst procedure
6.1 Rows of indentations (R)
Figures 1to 7 give examples of hardness indentations
made in rows including the distance from the surface
so that these rows or parts of them permit an
assessment of the welded joint. If required by the
contracting parties, additional rows of indentations
and/or different locations may be made. The location
shai be stated in the test report.
In metals such as aluminium, copper and their alloys,
the rows on the root-side of butt welds (see figure Ba)
are not necessary. 'spical rows for T-joints in these
materiais are given in figure 2.

The number and spacing of indentations shall be

sufficient to define hardened or softened regions due
to welding. The recommended distance between the
centrepoint of the indentations in the heat affected
zone (HAZ) is given in table 2.
The hardness values shaii be recorded in relation to

the position of the indentation.
NOTE 1. Table 2 also applies to the Brinell testing using the same
distances, provided appropriate loads are used.
8 'kst report
Sufficient indentations shall be mae to ensure that

unaffected parent metal is tested. In the weld metal,
the distance between indentations sha be selected
and checked so that the results obtained will enable
assessment of the welded joint to be made.
For metais which harden in the HAZ as a result of
welding, two additional indentations in the HAZ shall
be made at a distance of 5 0,5 mm between the
centrepoint of the indentation and the fusion h e (see
figures 3 to 7).
For other joint configurations or metals
(e.g. austenitic steels) special requirements can be
given by the relevant application standard or by
agreement between the contracting parties.
A test report is required. The information to be

recorded is listed in annexes A and B.
The use of the format given in annexes A and B is
recommended.
Other forma& may be used provided they contain ail
the required information. Additional information may
be required by the relevant application standard or by
agreement between the contracting parties.

NOTE 2. For electroslag welds, the loads of table 2 may be used.

Rows of indentations for electroclag welds can be made similar to
figure la.
6.2 Individual indentations (E)

Figure 8 shows typicd areas for the location of
individual indentations. Series 14 gives information
about the unaffected parent metal, series 510 refers
to the HAZ and the series 11-14 to the weld metal.
Otherwise, the location of the indentation can be
determined on the basis of metallographic
examination.
To prevent the influence of deformation caused by an
indentation, the minimum distance between the
centrepoint of individual indentations in any direction
shali not be less than 2,5 times the mean diagonal of
the nearest macent indentation.
For metals which harden in the HAZ as a result of
welding, at least one indentation shall be made in the
HAZ at a distance of 5 0,5 mm between the
centrepoint of the indentation and the fusion line.
For testing with individual indentations, the areas
shall be numbered as shown in figure 8.
