介绍弯曲梁试样的设计、制备和使用程序。这些试样可用于测试各种产品形式（即板材、板材、扁平挤压材料、线材或棒材）。尤其适用于多次试验和大气应力腐蚀试验；它们通常在名义上恒定的应变条件下进行测试。由高强度材料制成的弯曲梁试样可能会快速断裂，并且可能存在危险。

Covers procedures for designing, preparing and using bent-beam test specimens. These specimens may be used to test a variety of product forms (i. e. sheet, plate, flat extruded material, wire or rod). They are espesially suitable for multiple testing and for atmospheric stress corrosion tests; they are usually tested under nominally constant strain conditions. Bent-beam specimens made from high strength materials may fracture rapidly and can be dangerous.
