Non Conformance Form

Universal Testing Laboratory found an inaccuracy in their Universal Testing Machine (UTM) during retesting of steel rebar samples. The UTM was showing lower yield strength readings on its display screen than were reflected on the stress-strain graph. This violates the laboratory's quality management system requirements for measurement traceability and calibration. An investigation was initiated to identify and correct the cause of the uncertainty in the UTM readings.

Drawing/Specification No.

DESCRIPTION OF NON CONFORMITY: UNIVERSAL TESTING MACHINE INACCURACY OF TEST RESULT

It has been observed that the Universal Testing Machine (SERIAL NO.16801) used in the testing of rebars was giving a discrepancy/ inaccurate reading during the

recently conducted retest/validation of the 36-mm rebar yield strength of the rebar from STEEL ASIA .After the completion of the test it was found that the final reading

reflected on the measuring device screen is showing a reading that is lower than the actual reading being shown on the stress/strain graph of the machine during the

test. (See attached photos). UTL laboratory is instructed to investigate, identify and correct as necessary the cause of this uncertainties in their UTM.

7.1.5.2 Measurement traceability


When measurement traceability is a requirement, or is considered by the organization to be an essential part of providing confidence in the validity of measurement
results, measuring equipment shall be:

a) Calibrated or verified, or both, at specified intervals, or prior to use, against measurement standards traceable to international or national measurement standards;
when no such standards exist, the basis used for calibration or verification shall be retained as documented information;
b) Identified in order to determine their status;
c) safeguarded from adjustments, damage or deterioration that would invalidate the calibration status and subsequent measurement results.

The organization shall determine if the validity of previous measurement results has been adversely affected when measuring equipment is found to be unfit for its
intended purpose, and shall take appropriate action as necessary.
