Annex A (normative) - Information on measuring crack
depths in corner-crack test pieces with the
direct-current - Potential-drop method
Annex B (normative) - Stress-intensity function for
corner-crack test pieces
Annex C (normative) - Guidelines on test piece handling
and degreasing
Defines the requirements for determining fatigue crack growth rates using the corner-crack (CC) test piece. Crack development is measured using a potential-drop system, and the calculated crack depths can be corrected via marker bands created on the fracture surface during the test.
