This document specifies the terms and definitions, principles, test equipment, test procedures, test reports, etc. for measuring residual stress on the surface of pressure equipment using the indentation energy difference method. This document is suitable for surface residual stress testing of pressure-bearing equipment. Residual stress testing of other metal materials that can clarify the uniform two-dimensional stress distribution on the surface can also be performed with reference to this document.
