3、stablishesessential and desirable data elements that serve to uniquelyidentify and describe a particular metal or alloy sample as wellas properties that identify a given metal or alloy in general.1.1.1 This guide does not necessarily provide sufficient dataelements to describe weld metal,metal matri

5、hin a particular metal or alloy group,different sets of dataelements may be used to identify specific material conditions.1.1.4 Table 1 on Recommended Data Elements and Tables2-17 on values for specific data elements appear at the end ofthis guide.1.2 Some of the data elements in this guide may be u
