DIN-Taschenbuch 317/2

The mechanical properties of materials such as strength, rigidity and plasticity are crucial for their safe and efficient utilization. Precise testing procedures are essential to ensure the quality and reliability of production and development. This collection of standards provides comprehensive information and practical guidance on tensile and bending testing, which is relevant for a wide range of materials such as metallic materials, plastics and adhesives.

Content and structure:

On almost 500 pages, “Werkstoffprüfung 2” provides in-depth insights into 15 key standards that deal with mechanical-technological test methods. The content covers general principles as well as specific test conditions and methods for determining various properties. The collection of standards is divided into the following sections:

Metallic materials:

• Tensile test
• Bending test

Plastics:

• Tensile test
• Bending test
• Determination of the creep behaviour

Adhesives:

• Determination of tensile strength

This structured presentation provides experts from various fields with comprehensive support in the characterization and optimization of processes and applications.

15 cutting-edge standards full of expertise

The DIN 317 Taschenbuch series currently comprises five parts dealing with the fundamentals and individual test methods for materials testing. The series meets the great need for collected expertise that exists among engineers, technicians and others involved in testing, quality assurance and other areas. It provides all of the relevant standards at a glance and has been divided up due to how much standardization work has been done on the subject. This volume deals with tensile and bending tests, which play an important role in mechanical-technological materials testing.

In this DIN Taschenbuch, you will find:

• 15 cutting-edge standards

Across almost 500 pages, the book brings together 15 documents on the current state of technology and standardization – highly topical knowledge, arranged according to subject areas.

• Wide range of topics

The documents included cover metallic materials as well as plastics and adhesives. They provide expertise in testing methods at room temperature as well as at elevated and low temperatures to determine the properties and behaviour of materials.

The included keyword index makes it easy to find the required content.

Other volumes in the series include standards on basic principles (317/1), hardness tests (317/3), impact tests (317/4) and non-destructive tests (317/5).
