Method for the determination of impact resistance at 20 °C for Type 2

(imperial series)
D.1 Apparatus
D.1.1 Falling weight apparatus, which shall consist essentially of the following (see Figure
D.1):
D.1.1.1 Main frame rigidly fixed in a vertical position.
D.1.1.2 Guide rails, carried on the inside of the main frame and adjustable to keep them
parallel and vertical.
t
en
D.1.1.3 Striker, which may be weighted and which can fall freely within the guide rails. It
shall be equipped with a hardened hemispherical striking surface 25 mm in diameter, which
m
shall be free from flats and other imperfections. The combined mass of striker and weight shall
be not less than the nominal value given in Table D.1, in accordance with the size of pipe to be
om
tested, and shall not exceed that nominal mass by more than 10 % for nominal masses less
than or equal to 1.75 kg or by more than 5 % for nominal masses greater than or equal to 2.25
kg.
C
D.1.1.4 Test piece support, comprising a 120° vee-block, at least 230 mm in length, so
positioned below the guide rails that the tip of the striker is not more than 2.5 mm from either
lic
axis of the vee-block.

b
D.1.1.5 Release mechanism, such that the striker can fall through the test height onto the
top surface of the test piece.
Pu
D.1.1.6 Means for maintaining a constant height of fall, by vertical movement of either
the vee-block, the release mechanism or the main frame, in order to accommodate different
r
diameters of pipe.
Fo
D.2 Test pieces

Each test piece shall be a length of pipe having undamaged ends cut square to the longitudinal
axis. Each test piece shall be a complete section of pipe of a length in millimeters equal to 50
times the nominal size, or 150 mm, whichever is the greater, subject to a maximum length of
300 mm.
For nominal size 40 mm and above, Draw a straight line along the entire length of each test
piece, randomly positioned on the pipe’s circumference. Draw further lines parallel to the first
line, equally spacing them around the circumference, to bring the total number to that given in
Table D.2.

D.3 Procedure
Condition the test pieces at 20 °C ± 1 °C for at least 30 min. Set the falling weight apparatus
(D.1) to give a height of fall of 2 000 mm +10 mm, measured from the hemispherical striking
0
surface of the appropriately weighted striker (D.1.1.3) to the top of the piece. Determine the
weight to be used according to the pipe diameter [see Table D.2 and (D.1.1.3)]. Within 1 min of
removing a test piece from the conditioning environment, place it on the test piece support
(D.1.1.4) with one of the marked lines uppermost, where applicable, and allow the weighted
striker to fall freely onto the test piece.
If the test piece does not fail as defined by cracking completely through its wall thickness, and
subject to its not being out of the conditioning environment for more than 1 min, rotate it until
the next line becomes uppermost and in this position strike it again. Repeat this process until
each line has been struck once or the test piece has failed. Test further the test pieces in the
same manner. When any test piece fails, remove it from the machine, record the number of
strikes up to the point of failure and recommence the test using a further test piece. Use as
many test pieces and strikes as it takes to obtain a conclusion in accordance with D.4.

D.4 Determination and interpretation of results

Refer to Figure D.2 to compare the number of strikes with the number of failed test pieces and
interpret the result as follows:
a) If the true impact rate falls within region C (TIR above 10 %), report the result as a failure.
b) If the true impact rate falls within region A (TIR below 10 %), report the result as a pass.
c) If the result falls on or within the boundaries of region B, the result is indeterminate, in
which case continue testing until a positive result is obtained (see note) or until it
becomes clear that a result within region A is most unlikely, and this case report the result
as a failure.
NOTE. This will usually require a sequence of not less than 10 further blows which procedures either no
failed test pieces or as least two failed test pieces.

NOTE. Examples of use of graph. m
If for 100 strikes there are 20 failed test pieces, the TIR lies within region C and the batch TIR is greater than 10 %, i.e. a failure is recorded.
If for 100 strikes there are 12 failed test pieces, the TIR lies within region B and no decision can be made about pass or failure until further strikes are made. In this case
en
testing is continued until a definite conclusion can be reached. t
If for 100 strikes there are 5 failed test pieces, the TIR lies within region A and the batch TIR is less than 10 %, i.e. a pass is recorded.
