This standard BS EN ISO 26203-2:2011 Metallic materials. Tensile testing at high strain rates is classified in these ICS categories:
77.040.10 Mechanical testing of metals
This part of ISO 26203 gives requirements for the testing of metallic materials. Only examples for testing flat geometries are given; however, other geometries can be tested. The area of application spans a range of strain rates from 10-2 s-1to 103 s-1. Tests are carried out between 10 °C and 35 °C and, unless otherwise specified, using a servo-hydraulic-type test system.
NOTE 1 Measurements at strain rates lower than 10-2 s-1 can be performed using machines designed for quasistatic testing.
NOTE 2 For test piece geometries other than those shown in 7.1 and Annex B, see ESIS P7 (Reference [1]) and FAT Guideline (Reference [2]).
