Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International
Standards, but in exceptional circumstances a technical committee may
propose the publication of a Technical Report of one of the following
types:
- type 1 when the req uired suppor t cannot be obtai ned for the publi-
I
cation despite repeated efforts;
of an lnternatio nal Standard,
- type 2, when the subject is still under technical development or where
for any other reason there is the future but not immediate possibility
of an agreement on an International Standard;
- type 3, when a technical committee has collected data of a different
kind from that which is normally published as an International
Standard (“state of the art”, for example).
Technical Reports of types 1 and 2 are subject to review within three
years of publication, to decide whether they can be transformed into
International Standards. Technical Reports of type 3 do not necessarily
have to be reviewed until the data they provide are considered to be no
longer valid or useful.
lSO/rR 12735-1, which is a Technical Report of type 2, was prepared by
Technical Committee lSO/TC 164, Mechanical testing of metals.
lSO/rR 12735 consists of the following parts, under the general title

Introduction
This part of lSO/TR 12735 has been prepared to provide the appropriate
means of avoiding contradictions and misunderstandings and to
standardize various kinds of symbols and their definitions generally used in
this field. Wherever possible the same symbol has been used to denote
the same type of parameter in the different tests but the differing types of
test piece, product form and test have to be taken into account. This has
not been universally possible and symbols should always be considered in
the context of the specific method of test being used.

Part 1:
Symbols and definitions in published standards
1 scope
This part of ISO/TR 12735 is entirely informative. In it are enumerated the
symbols and definitions used in IS0 international standards
for specific
testing of metallic
methods of mechanical materials which are the
responsibility of IS0 Technical Committee 164. The data are indexed
system.
alphabetically and via a coding Annex A provides an additional
the coding system and relevant
cross-reference between IS0 standard
numbers.
2 Designation system
To assist in indexing and cross-referencing symbols and definitions, a code
number is used to identify test methods. The first digit of the code
identifies the sub-committee of ISO/TC 164 that is responsible for preparing
and reviewing International Standards for that test method. Subsequent digits
are in ascending order of the IS0 number for each international standard or
draft international standard.
International standards that relate to a common test method and which all
share the same set of symbols and definitions are given a single code number.
at the time of publication of this part of ISO/TR 12735, there existed
If,
both a valid International Standard and a document designed to replace it
then both the international standard and the
that had reached DIS stage,
draft international standard will have been assigned to the same code number.
Each test method for metallic materials is identified and designated as shown
in table 1. Annex A provides a rapid cross-reference to the coding system.
