Abstract

This paper summarizes a report that is being prepared on behalf of ASTM Joint Task Group E24.04.02/G01.06.04 on Test Methods for Measurement of K^Iscc and SCC Growth Rate. The report deals with the results from an interlaboratory program to evaluate the procedures, based on linear fracture mechanics, for measuring the threshold stress intensity factor for stress corrosion cracking (K^Iscc) of steels and the crack growth rates (da/dt).
