Specifies form and dimensions of test pieces and their preparation, and sets out procedures for a direct method and the Nelson-Winlock and logarithmic plot indirect methods. Notes on scale expansion and on the indirect methods are given in appendices.

This standard sets out methods for the determination of uniform elongation in sheet and strip metals. The standard specifically covers the following methods:(a) Direct method.(b) Indirect methods-(i) Nelson-Winlock method* (ii) Logarithmic-plot method.
