Scope This Japanese Industrial Standard specifies test pieces for tensile test for metallic materials. 2. Definitions For the purpose of this standard, the following definitions apply: (1) parallel portion The middle part of test piece having uniform section. (2) gauge length ‘The original length of the part between two gauge marks on the parallel portion on which elongation is measured. (3) gripped end The parts by which the test piece is held in the gripping devices of a testing machine. (4) radius of fillet The radius of the transition curve between the parallel Portion and the gripped ends for the purpose of uniformly distributing the stress in the parallel portion. (5) distance between grips The free length of the part of test piece between the both gripping devices of the testing machine when a test piece is set on a testing machine. (6) proportional test piece A test piece of which form is geometrically Similar and dimensions of principal parts are determined so as to be proportional to the cross-sectional area of its parallel portion. (7) noncproportional test piece A test piece having the fixed form and dimension irrespective of the cross-sectional area of its parallel portion. 3. Types of Test Piece 3.1 The test pieces shall be classified into Types Nos. 1 to 14 depending upon the form and size. These are classified into the proportional test piece and the non-proportional one as given in Table 1.
