Hi and i wonder if somebody could give me a an explanation of 323.3.5 Acceptance Criteria
from ASME B31.3-2008
(2) For lateral Expansion Criteria;
If the value of lateral expansion for one specimen in a group of three
is below 0.38 mm (0.015 in) but not below 0.25 mm (0.01 in), and if the average
value for three specimens equals or exceeds 0.038 mm (0.015 in), a retest of three
additional specimens may be made, each of which must equal or exceed the
\specific minimum value of 0.38 mm (0.015 in).
So in my previous message my lateral expansion were 4,8,& 5.
So how do i calculate to know wether those numbers are good or bad.
I just can't seem to figure this one out.
tks for any explanation.
