Induction Bend Charpy values
Induction Bend Charpy values
(OP)
I have seen % shear requirements from 50%, 75% to 85% depending on the code (API, ASTM etc.) and some of the technical papers and vendor specs. The test would be conducted at 32F. So I am confused as to which values are acceptable. The test piece would be from a weld in the tangent area.

However, do you need to worry about brittle fracture propagation in a bend when it is sandwiched between two correctly tested pieces of linepipe?
