* Calculation formula of minimum elongation: δ=C×(A<sup>0.2</sup>/U<sup>0.9</sup>) Where: C=1940(metric); C= 625,000 (US system) A= The following applicable tensile specimen area dimensions: ⓐ For round rod samples: the diameter of the samples was 12.7(0.5in.) and 8.9(0.35in.)mm, and the cross-sectional areas of the samples were both 130mm<sup>2</sup>(0.2in.<sup>2</sup>). Diameter of 6.4 mm (0.25 in.) sample, sample cross section area of 65 mm < sup > 2 < / sup > (0.1 in. < sup > 2 < / sup >) For the whole sample: 485mm<sup>2</sup>(0.75in.<sup>2</sup>) and the smaller of the cross-sectional area calculated according to the outer diameter and wall thickness specified for the whole tube sample. The digit is accurate to 10mm<sup>2</sup>(0.01in.<sup>2</sup>). ⓒ For the strip specimen: 485mm<sup>2</sup>(0.75in.<sup>2</sup>) and the smaller of the cross-sectional area calculated according to the specified width and wall thickness of the specimen. The digit is accurate to 10mm<sup>2</sup>(0.01in.<sup>2</sup>). ⓓU= specified minimum ultimate tensile strength in MPa(psi) |
