/ PQR Plate Width

D1.1 2015 figure 4.6 shows the width of a PQR plate as 7". How critical is this dimension?
I need to qualify something to both D1.1 and another (similar) code that actually shows this dimension as 10".
The material that I am qualifying is only available in a 6.5" width. Should I run with the 6.5" width and accept the results?

Matt,
The best thing is to contact the lab you intend to use for mechanical testing.
They will have a minimum length for samples to enable tensile and bend testing.
As long as they are happy that is all that matters,
Cheers,
Shane

Thanks!
I contacted the lab and it looks like it shouldn't be an issue.
