The effect is not so pronounced in the thicker plates. On such material, when so stated in the nf ial specification for plates up 10 % in, [20 mm}, inciusive, in thickness. ifthe percentage of elongation of an in, or 200-min gage length test specimen falls not more than 3 % below the amount prescribed, the elongation shall be considered satisfactory provided the percentage of clonga- tion in 2 in, [50 mm] across the break is not less than 25 5 11.6.5 The tensile requirements tables in many of the specifications covered by these general requirements specify clongation requirements in both &-in. [200 mm] and 2-in, {50 mm) gage lengths. Uniess otherwise provided in the individual plate specification, itis not the intent that both requirements apply simultaneously and that the elongation bbe determined in both gage lengths. Instead, it is intended that the elongation be determined only in the gage length appropriate for the test specimen used. Afier selection of the appropriate gage length, the elongation requirement for the alternative gage length shall be deemed not applicable. HLT Yield Strength Application: 11.7.1 When test specimens do not exhibit a welldefined disproportionate yield point. yield strength shall be det mined and substituted for vield point. 11.7.2 When test specimens do exhibit a well-defined 20 disproportionate yield point, as an option, yield strength may be substituted for yield point. 11.7.3 Yield strength shall be determined either by the 0.24% offset method or by the 0.5 5 extension-under-load method, 12, Identification of Material 12.1 Plares—Each plate shall be steel die-stamped, marked, or stenciled in one place with heat number, mani facturer’s name. brand. or trademark. size and thickness, For plates provided from coils, the processor identity rather thun that of the manufacturer shall be used.
