Dear Experts,
 
For crosshead installation in jetty project, the following materials (37mm) are used.
 

Road way            - S355JO

Crosshead           - S355JR & S275JR

Pipe track            - S355JR

 

As per European structural steel standard EN10025 , for JR grade, Longitudinal charpy V-notch impacts 27J @20 degrees and for JO grade, Longitudinal charpy V-notch impacts 27J @ 0 degrees.

 

We received materials mill certificates w/o impact test.

 

My question is whether impact is mandatory for above grades or any criteria of thickness as per EN10025? Please mention with reference codes.

 

Your valuable suggestions are appreciated.

 

Regards

 

arvinda

Yes CVN is mandatory. you may carry out the impact test as per requirement and
if it passes go ahead

whats your design load & temperature range from the project specification.

Hi Aravind,
 
CVN is mandatory, as indicated in red your email for these grades (EN 10025-2, S27JR, S355JR &J0)

Your project spec. is may not call for the requirement of CVN.

Hi Aravind
 
Sorry, CVN requirement for the JR is depends on your PO , but is not mandatory as like J0 grades.
 
Refer Cl 7.3.2.2 of EN 10025-2

Dear Arvinda,
 
The Impact requirement depends on Design Parameter of the Project.
Please check whether Contract / Project Spec / Service calls for impact.
 
Thanks & Regards

Impact test is mandatory for t>6mm, if the material is going for low temperature service.

Hi Harish,
 
You want to settle this comments cut the test coupon & test the impact value for each heat no &  wittness with third party and attach with mill certificate is accptable.

Dear all,
 
Thanks for your valuable suggestions.
 
Contractor insists CVN is applicable only beyond 100mm thickness for structural as per BS EN 10025-2 table 9 option 28. I'm not satisfied with that. In company specification, nowhere specified about impact. In company document, materials shall be as per BS EN 10025.
 
As per BS EN 10025-1 , CVN is required more than 6mm of nominal thickness.
 
My question is If they don't need CVN, why they are using such materials ? Also my recommendation is also CVN required for Jo and Jr grades. Any criteria based on thickness? .
 
Any reference plz. clarify.

Dear Sirs,

 

The project requirements perhaps depend on design parameter but this has nothing to do with the requirements mentioned in material specification.

EN 10025 chapter 7.4.2.4 mentions that when Charpy impact tests need to be proven by tests on the materials delivered it should be agreed in front (purchase order) for material grades JR (Supplement requirement 9).

For material grades J0 it’s a standard requirement so every certificate should mention results of impact test (req. >27J at 0 °C) for this specific heat number and therefore material delivered with certificates without mentioning impact values should be rejected.

Dear sir,
 
So thickness is not the criteria for impact testing of structural materials? Need impact test on each heat number more than 6mm of thickness? Am I right?

Whether CVN test is required or not – and also the criterions – are very much dependent on the design code being  applied.

 

Is design code Eurocode 3 (EN 1993-series standards)?

If so, you will see in the design code that CVN will normally not be required for Concequence Class (CC), CC1.

For consequence class CC2 and CC3 you can see the charpy impact test requirements for each EN 10025 steel quality in EN 1993-1-10.

 

It is dependent on following parameters:

a)      Your minimum design temperature

b)      The maximum thickness of the relevant steel quality

c)       The utilization in the design

 

regards

Kristian

Yes, for grades J0, For grades JR only when agreed in purchase order.

Dear Arvind,

Impact test is mandatory whenever ,there is lower service temperature,Grades you have specified might be impact tested by the mill,coz these grades are generally used for low service temperature.
