ISO 14273:2016

ISO 14273:2016 specifies specimen dimensions and a testing procedure for tensile shear testing of spot and embossed projection welds, in overlapping sheets, in any metallic material of thickness 0,5 mm to 10 mm, where the welds have a maximum diameter of 7√t (where t is the sheet thickness in mm). The object of tensile shear testing is to determine the tensile shear force that the test specimen can sustain.
