Four-Point Bend Testing of Materials for Oil and Gas Applications
This document provides technical requirements for the use of four-point bend testing to evaluate the resistance of metals, including carbon steels, low alloy steels, and corrosion resistant alloys (CRAs), to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and sulfide stress cracking (SSC). The test is carried out for a specified exposure period with the specimen held under constant displacement using compact loading jigs.
