Re: [MW:9269] ELECTRODE QUALIFICATION TEST CLARIFICATION

Hi Eldho Isaac,

Further to add to a detailed explantion given by Mr. Herman, Larger Grain size reduces Elongation, so Sterss Relieve to refine the grain size would be helful to achieve Enongation,  

Porosity and H2 entrappment can greatly reduce Elongation value so Have a check for Porosity and Inclusions, which significantly reduces Strength and Elongation.

Please specify Design code, Material Thickness and MDMT in order to find out whether Impact is required? if it's mandatory as per Client spec and Let's say your Design code is ASME B31.3, then you can refer to Fig. 323.2.2A,

Hope this would be useful,

Regards
Manpreet Singh
