Ra≤0.9µm, when surface structure is B ( smooth surface)
7. TEST AND EXPERIMENT
7.1 Steel sheet and strip inspection with the naked eye appearance
7.2 Steel sheet and strip size, shape should use proper application to measure
7.3 r value is calculated when 15% strain, r value is calculated in the end of uniform extension when uniformly
extension less than 15%.
7.4 Steel sheet and strip should be in batch acceptance,Each inspection batch should be less than 30 tons of the
same brand, same size, with processing status of the steel sheet and strip form.
7.5 Each batch steel sheet and strip testing projects and sample number, sampling method, test method and
sampling direction shall conform to the provisions of the table 11

7.6 For the tensile, plastic strain ratio (r value), strain hardening exponent (n values), if a particular test results
do not meet standard requirements, then take double the amount of sample from the same batch to reinspect
the failed project retesting. Reinspectresult(including the pilot project required all the indicators)qualified, then
the entire batch are qualified. Reinspect results (including the pilot project required all the indicators) fail even
if there is an indicator unqualified, then the entire batch failed. If Reinspecting failed, the single-piece, which
they have been doing tests and test resultsunqualified, cannot be acceptance, but without making test batch
material piece by piece can be re-submitted to testing and acceptance.
8. packaging, marking and inspection of documents
Steel sheet and strip’s packing, marking and inspection documents should conform to the provisions
ofQ/BQB 400.If the buyer have special requirement on packaging weight should be indicated in the contract.
