Description / Abstract: Purpose.

Procedures listed herein may be used whenever tensile and fatigue data is needed. This specification provides standard procedures for determination of tensile and fatigue properties in parts

Applicability.

This is not a general specification. It must be called out in each use per Section 8. GMW16705 was specifically written to provide test detail for GMW16704. However, methods detailed herein apply wherever rigorous tensile and fatigue testing is needed.
