Indian Boiler Testing Standards

The document outlines testing requirements and standards for various boiler and pressure vessel components and materials. It discusses the number of required tests, types of tests including tensile, flattening, bending and hydraulic tests, and standards for materials like steel castings, tubes, electrodes, and forgings. Additional tests are required before rejection if initial tests fail to meet standards. Mechanical properties, defects, and non-destructive testing are evaluated.
