UG-84 CHARPY IMPACT TESTS
(a) General, Charpy V-notch impact tests in accordance
‘with the provisions of this paragraph shall be made on
‘weldments and all materials for shells, heads, nozzles,
and other vessel parts subject to stress due to pressure
for which impact tests are required by the rules in Sub-
section C,
(0) Test Procedures
(1) Impact test procedures and apparatus shall con-
form to the applicable paragraphs of SA-370 or ISO 148
(Parts 1, 2, and 3).
(2) Unless permitted by Table UG-84.4, impact test
temperature shall not be warmer than the minimum de-
sign metal temperature [see UG-20(b)]. The test tempera-
ture may be colder than the minimum specified in the
material specification of Section IL
(o) Test Specimens
(2) Each set of impact test specimens shall consist of
three specimens.
(2) The impact test specimens shall be of the Charpy
‘V-notch type and shall conform in all respects to Figure
UG-84. The standard (10 mm x 10 mm) specimens, when
obtainable, shall be used for nominal thicknesses of
“hs in. (11 mm) or greater, except as otherwise permitted
in Ca) below.
(a) For materials that normally have absorbed
‘energy in excess of 180 ft-Ibf (240 J) when tested using
full size (10 mm x 10 mm) specimens at the specified test-
ing temperature, subsize (10 mm x 6.7 mm) specimens
may be used in lieu of full size specimens. However, when
this option is used, the acceptance value shall be 75 ft-lb!
(100 J) minimum for each specimen and the lateral expan-
sion in mils (mm) shall be reported.
(3) For material from which full size (10 mm x
10 mm) specimens cannot be obtained, either due to
the material shape or thickness, the specimens shall be

either the largest possible standard subsize specimens
obtainable or specimens of full material nominal thick-
ness which may be machined to remove surface irregula-
rities, [The test temperature criteria of (5)(-b) below
shall apply for Table UCS-23 materials having a specified
minimum tensile strength less than 95,000 psi (655 MPa)
‘when the width along the notch is less than 80% of the
material nominal thickness.] Alternatively, such material
may be reduced in thickness to produce the largest possi-
ble Charpy subsize specimen. Toughness tests are not re-
‘quired where the maximum obtainable Charpy specimen
has a width along the notch less than 0.099 in. (2.5 mm).
(A) See below.
a) Except for materials produced and impact,
tested in accordance with the requirements in the speci-
fications listed in General Note (c) of Figure UG-84.1,
the applicable minimum energy requirement for all speci
men sizes for Table UCS-23 materials having a specified
minimum tensile strength less than 95,000 psi
(655 MPa) shall be that shown in Figure UG-84.1, mult
plied by the ratio of the actual specimen width along,
the notch to the width of a full-size (10 mm x 10 mm)
specimen, except as otherwise provided in (2)(-a) above.
(Cb) The applicable minimum lateral expansion
opposite the notch for all specimen sizes for Table
UCS-23 materials, having a specified minimum tensile
strength of 95,000 psi (655 MPa) or more, shal be as re-
quired in UHT-6(a)(3) and UH'T-6(a)(4). For UHT materi
als, all requirements of UHT-6(a)(3) and UNT-6(a)(4)
shall apply. For‘Table UHA-23 materials, all requirements
of UHA-51 shall apply.
(5) For all Charpy impact tests the following test tem-
perature criteria shall be observed:
6a)_For Materials of Nominal Thickness Equal to
or Greater Than 0.394 in. (10 mm). Where the largest ob
tainable Charpy V-notch specimen has a width along the
notch of at least 0.315 in, (8 mm), the Charpy test using
such a specimen shall be conducted at a temperature
not warmer than the minimum design metal
temperature." Where the largest possible test specimen
has a width along the notch less than 0.315 in. (8 mm),
the test shall be conducted at a temperature lower than
the minimum design metal temperature” by the amount
shown in Table UG-84.2 for that specimen width. [This
latter requirement does not apply when the option of
(2)(-a) above is used}
(4b). For Materials of Nominal Thickness Less Than
0.394 in. (10 mm). Where the largest obtainable Charpy
‘V-notch specimen has a width along the notch of at least
£80% ofthe material nominal thickness, the Charpy test of|
such a specimen shall be conducted at a temperature not
warmer than the minimum design metal temperature.”*
Where the largest possible test specimen has a
width along the notch of less than 80% of the material
nominal thickness, the test, for Table UCS-23 materials
having specified minimum tensile strength of less than
95,000 psi (655 MPa), shall be conducted at a ASME BPVGVIIL-2015 uc-es
