NF EN ISO 9015-1
Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials - Hardness testing - Part 1 : hardness test on arc welded joints
This part of ISO 9015 specifies hardness tests on transverse sections of arc welded joints of metallic materials. Itcovers Vickers hardness tests in accordance with ISO 6507-1, normally with test loads of 49,03 N or 98,07 N (HV 5or HV 10).However, the principles may be applied to Brinell hardness testing (with appropriate testing loads of HB 2,5/15,625or HB 1/2,5) in accordance with ISO 6506-1 and micro hardness testing in accordance with ISO 6507-1 andISO 9015-2.NOTE Testing should be carried out to ensure that the highest and the lowest level of hardness of both parent metal andweld metal is determined.This part of ISO 9015 does not apply to test welds in austenitic stainless steels.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!

At a glance, you will be able to identify the additions, deletions or modifications to a text, table, figure and formula.
