GB/T 2039-2012 in English

《GB/T 2039-2012金属材料 单轴拉伸蠕变试验方法》由TC183（全国钢标准化技术委员会）归口，TC183SC4（全国钢标准化技术委员会力学及工艺性能试验方法分会）执行，主管部门为中国钢铁工业协会。

1 Scope

This standard specifies the method for the uninterrupted and interrupted creep testing and defines the properties of metallic materials which can be determined from these tests, in particular the creep elongation and the time of creep rupture, at a specified temperature.
The stress rupture test is also covered by this standard, as is the test of smooth test pieces and notched test pieces.
Note: in stress rupture test, elongation is not generally recorded during the test, only the time to failure under a given load, or to note that a predetermined time was exceeded under a given force.

3 Terms and Definitions

For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions specified in GB/T 10623 apply.
Note: several different gauge lengths and reference lengths are specified in this standard. These lengths reflect custom and practice used in different laboratories. In some cases, the lengths are physically marked on the test piece as lines or ridges; in other cases, the length may be a virtual length based upon calculations to determine an appropriate length to be used for the determination of creep elongation. For some test pieces, Lr, Lo and Le are the same length (see 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5).
3.1
Reference length
Lr
Base length used for the calculation of elongation
Note: a method to calculate this value is given in 7.5 for test pieces where the extensometer is attached to either ridges on the parallel length or to the shoulders of the test piece.
3.1.1
Original reference length
Lro
Reference length determined at ambient temperature before the test
Note: In general, Lro≥5D.
