    Procedure

    5.1.3.2 Annual calibration, a complete calibration by a certified laboratory shall be performed


    every 12 months.

    5.1.3.3 The equipment shall be calibrated in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.

    5.1.4 Surface preparation

    The surface on which the impression is to be made shall be clean and completely free of scale
    oxides, grease, paints etc. as specified by the instrument manufacturer, cleaning may be
    done by machining, polishing or any mechanicals process.

    5.1.5 Number or readings

    5.1.5.1 For welded joints

    - Each weld shall be covered by minimum one location, in this location five readings shall be taken
    (weld metal. 2 HAZ, 2 base metal) across the face of weld Axis, at each reading minimum three
    values to be taken and averaged to determine hardness value

    5.1.5.2 for areas of arc strike removal and temporary attachment removal

    - For areas of arc strike removal, minimum of three readings to be taken and averaged to determine
    hardness value.

    - For areas of temporary attachment removal, the area shall be divided into four quarters; three
    readings to be taken and averaged at each quarter to determine hardness value.

    5.1.5.3 If test results do not meet the requirements, three additional readings on the same area of
    interest shall be taken.

    5.1.6 Temperature

    Test to be carried out at ambient temperature (4 -38) °C.
