Study Notes
Weld Quality Control and Inspection Methods
- Side-bend specimen testing is preferred for double-V-groove welds to reveal internal defects at the root
- Hardness is the material's resistance to permanent deformation, with a relationship to mechanical properties and tensile strength of steel
- Hardness testing is commonly performed through indentation tests using Brinell, Vickers, and Rockwell methods
- The Brinell hardness tester uses a 10mm ball with 3000 kg force, with limitations in narrow areas such as the heat-affected zone
- The Rockwell hardness tester measures depth of penetration under different loads and indentors, commonly using the C and B scales
- The Vickers hardness tester uses a small indentation and allows for testing specific regions of the weld
- For Vickers testing, the indentation size should be measured and the distance between indentations should be at least 25 times the indentation size
- A high hardness indicates high strength and low ductility, with a relationship to the tensile strength of steel
- The Brinell, Vickers, and Rockwell hardness tests are based on the principle of indentation tests
- The Brinell hardness value is designated by the letters HB, while the Rockwell hardness is denoted by HRx
- The Rockwell C scale uses a conical-shaped diamond indenter and a major load of 150 kg, while the Rockwell B scale uses a 1/16 in steel ball and a major load of 100 kg
- The Vickers hardness test uses a square-based diamond pyramid indenter and the unit of hardness given by the test is known as the Vickers Pyramid Number (HV)
