Scope

This International Standard describes a method for verifying the alignment in a testing machine using a straingauged
measuring device. It is applicable to dynamic uniaxial tension/compression, pure torsion and combined
tension/compression plus torsion fatigue testing machines for metallic materials.
The methodology outlined in this International Standard is generic and can be applied to static testing machines
and in non-metallic materials testing.
