1. In practice, to ensure the correct chemical composition of a new piece of steel we:


Subject a sample to a Brinell test


Subject a sample to macro examination
#

Obtain a mill certificate


Obtain the mill delivery note

2. A destructive test which measures stress over strain in a steel sample is known as:


An impact test
#

A tensile test


An Izod test


A pendulum test

3. We can determine the ductility and malleability of a material from:


An impact test
#

A tensile test


An Izod test


A pendulum test

4. Typically, the tensile strength of mild steel is:


245MN/m


340MN/m
#

460MN/m


540MN/m

5. Typically, the extension of higher tensile is:


25%
#

22%


20%


10%

6. A Charpy test measures a materials:
#

Resistance to brittle fracture


Hardness


Youngs Modulus


Resistance to bending

7. A test which measures the return swing of a pendulum is known as:


A Brinell test


A hammer test


A clock test
#

An Izod test

8. The effect of a notch in a piece of material under load is to:


Increase the ductility


Increase the elasticity
#

Concentrate the stress and so act as a failure point


Concentrate the oxides and so act as a corrosion point

9. A simple test used to check the ductility of welds is known as:


A Brinell test


A macro examination


An Izod test
#

A bend test

10. In conducting a macro examination to determine the grain size and flow of a forging:
#

A prepared surface is visually examined


The surface is coated in a dye and sprayed with a developer


The surface is magnetised and viewed under a periscope


A prepared surface is viewed under ultra-violet light

11. A Brinell test is made by:


Striking the test piece with a pendulum
#

Indenting the surface of the test piece


Polishing and etching the surface of the test piece


Magnetising the test piece

12. The Brinell test is used to measure:


The ductility of a material


The elasticity of a material


The plasticity of a material
#

The hardness of a material

13. Higher tensile steel gear, hardened and tempered should have a Brinell number of:


Between 120 and 143


Between 143 and 193
#

Between 152 and 217


Between 248 and 302

14. A method commonly used in the work place to detect surface cracks in welds is:


The Charpy test


The Izod test


The radiographic test
#

The dye penetrant test

15. Magnetic detection will locate cracks and fissures:
#

To within approximately 10mm depth of the surface


Only at the surface


On materials up to a maximum of 25mm thickness


Anywhere within the line of magnetic flow

16. A method of crack detection which utilises electromagnetic induction is known as:


Magnetic crack detection
#

Eddy current crack detection


Radiographic crack detection


Ultrasonic crack detection

17. Radiography is a method of non destructive testing using:
#

Photographic film


High frequency sound waves


Magnetic flux


Liquid penetrant

18. Which of the following is a non-destructive test?


Izod test


Tensile test


Bend test
#

Hardness test

19. A proof load (force) test should never exceed:
#

The SWL


The yield stress
#

The elastic limit


Youngs modulus

20. LEEA Technical Requirements require test machines to have a minimum accuracy of:


+0 - 1%


+1% - 2%
#

1.5%
#

2%
