Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
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. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 9513 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 164, Mechanical testing of metals, Subcommittee
SC 1, Uniaxial testing.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 9513:1999), which has been technically revised.

Introduction
This International Standard sets out criteria for the calibration of extensometer systems, covering general
principles, the calibration equipment to be used, pre-calibration inspection and the measurement of
gaugelength for various types of extensometer systems. Aspects of the calibration process are addressed,
as are the assessment of the results, uncertainties, calibration intervals and reporting. Criteria for calibration
apparatus, their calibration and grading are addressed, complemented by a Bibliography covering a number of
[1] to [10]
important papers related to extensometer systems and their application . Work is in progress to develop
processes for dynamic extensometer calibration, however these have not reached, at the time of writing of this
International Standard, the level of development appropriate for inclusion within this International Standard. For
further information, refer to Reference [6].
Informative annexes address calculation of uncertainties of measurement for an extensometer system
calibration (Annex A), calibration of calibration apparatus (Annex B) and an example of a calibration report
(Annex C). Subsequent annexes address examples of extensometer system configurations (Annex D), laser
extensometry (Annex E), video extensometry (Annex F), full field extensometry (Annex G) and calibration of a
crosshead measurement system (Annex H).

Metallic materials — Calibration of extensometer systems used
in uniaxial testing
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies a method for the static calibration of extensometer systems used in
uniaxial testing, including axial and diametral extensometer systems, both contacting and non-contacting.
2 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
2.1
extensometer system
equipment used to measure displacement or strain on the surface of a test piece
NOTE For the purpose of this International Standard, the term “extensometer system” includes the indicator.
Some extensometers indicate strain directly (e.g. laser extensometers or digital image correlation techniques). Other
extensometers indicate the change in gauge length of a test piece; this is converted into strain by dividing by the relevant
gauge length.
2.2
gauge length
portion of a test piece where extension is measured
3 Symbols and designations
Symbols used throughout this International Standard are given in Table 1 together with their designation.

ISO 9513:2012(E)
4 Principle
The calibration of extensometer systems involves a comparison of the readings given by the extensometer with
known variations in length provided by a calibration apparatus.
NOTE 1 The user can define the displacement range(s) over which the calibration is to be performed. In this way, the
performance of the extensometer system can be optimized. For example, for strain-controlled low cycle fatigue, only a
small portion of the operating range of the extensometer is typically used. Hence, it would be appropriate, in this case, to
concentrate the calibration on the centre portion of the operating range.
The calibration process compares the known displacement from the calibration device with the output of
the extensometer system. This output can range from manual readings of high precision dial gauges to the
displacement indication of a transducer/electronics/data-logging system. In the latter case, the extensometer
system output would include any data curve fitting applied by the electronics/data-logging system.
NOTE 2 For certain types of extensometer systems, the calibration and classification will also be dependent upon the
ability of the extensometer system to define the gauge length.
5 Calibration equipment
5.1 Calibration apparatus
The calibration apparatus, which allows a known displacement l to be applied to the extensometer, may consist
t
of a rigid frame with suitable coaxial spindles or other fixtures to which the extensometer can be attached. The
calibration apparatus shall comprise a mechanism for moving at least one of the axial spindles together with a
device for accurately measuring the change in length produced. These variations in length can be measured by,
for example, an interferometer, a linear incremental encoder or gauge blocks and a comparator, or a micrometer.
NOTE Special attachments to the calibration apparatus spindles are utilized for the calibration of diametral
extensometers.
The calibration apparatus should be calibrated in accordance with Annex B and should meet the performance
requirements given in Table B.1.
Annex B gives a recommended calibration procedure for the calibration apparatus and details performance
criteria that indicate that the apparatus is suitable for calibrating extensometer systems in accordance with this
International Standard.
5.2 Calibration traceability
The calibration apparatus and the supporting equipment (such as micrometers, callipers, optical projection
microscopes) shall be calibrated using standards that are traceable to the International System of Units (SI).
The uncertainty associated with any measurements made by the supporting equipment shall not exceed one
third of the permissible error of the extensometer system being calibrated (see Table 2). The temperature
measurement instrument shall have a resolution of 0,1 °C.
6 Pre-calibration inspection
6.1 Objective
Prior to the calibration of the extensometer system it shall be inspected. This shall comprise, but not be limited to,
inspection of the mechanical components for, for example, free movement, damaged parts, worn knife edges,
and worn gauge length setting pins/fixtures. For extensometer systems incorporating electronic transducers,
the cabling and connectors shall be examined for damage, wear, etc.
The extensometer system shall be calibrated in the as-found condition if at all possible. The results shall be assessed
and, if necessary, the system shall be adjusted and re-calibrated. In this case, both data sets shall be reported.

SIST EN ISO 9513:2013
ISO 9513:2012(E)
6.2 Records of the inspection
Records of the pre-calibration inspection shall be kept, identifying the “as-found” condition of the extensometer
system, when the inspection was performed and who performed it. These pre-calibration inspection records
can take the form of either a written report or a completed “pro-forma” checklist.
6.3 Identification of extensometer system elements
The extensometer shall be uniquely identified. Parts that may be changed by the user during normal use of the
extensometer that affect the calibration of the extensometer shall also be uniquely identified where possible.
However, this requirement does not extend to clamping devices used to attach the extensometer to the test
piece. These unique identifications form part of the records for the extensometer system.
7 Measurement of extensometer gauge length
7.1 Fixed gauge length extensometry
7.1.1 The measured gauge length, L′ , of a fixed gauge length extensometer shall be determined by either
e
direct or indirect means. In both cases, the extensometer setting pin or gauge fixture is used to set the
extensometer contact points to their pre-set displacement.
NOTE Variability of the measured gauge length might be experienced due to excessive play/wear in the gauge length
setting mechanism.
′
7.1.1.1 Direct measurement of the gauge length, L , is performed between the extensometer contact points,
e
using a calibrated measuring instrument such as a caliper or a shadowgraph/projection microscope.
7.1.1.2 Indirect measurement of the gauge length, L′ , is performed by placing the extensometer on a soft
e
metal test piece in such a way that the blades or points of the extensometer leave their marks. Once the
extensometer is removed, the distance between the marks on the test piece shall be measured, using equipment
with an accuracy consistent with the required class of extensometer.
7.1.2 The relative error on the gauge length, q , calculated from Formula (1) shall meet the requirements

given in Table 2.

7.2 Variable gauge length extensometry
7.2.1 The gauge length of a variable gauge length extensometer shall be measured either directly, or indirectly.
7.2.1.1 Direct measurement of the gauge length is performed by setting the extensometer to the required
gauge length using jigs, fixtures or other tools, followed by measurement between the extensometer contact
points, using a calibrated measuring instrument such as a calliper or a shadowgraph/projection microscope.
′
7.2.1.2 Indirect measurement of the gauge length, L is performed by attaching the extensometer to a soft
e
metal test piece in such a way that the blades or points of the extensometer leave their marks. Once the
extensometer is removed, the distance between the marks on the test piece is measured, using equipment with
an accuracy consistent with the required class of extensometer.
7.2.2 Extensometers commonly used in creep, elevated temperature tensile or stress relaxation testing have
their gauge length defined by small ridges machined on the parallel length of the test piece, to which the

extensometer is clamped. The gauge length for such extensometers shall be determined directly from the test
piece and shall be to an accuracy consistent with the required class of extensometer.
7.2.3 The relative error on the gauge length, q , calculated from Formula (1), shall meet the requirements
L
e
given in Table 2.
7.2.4 Where an extensometer sets or measures the gauge length, the relative error on the gauge length shall
be determined. If features on the test piece define the gauge length, the relative error on the gauge length does
not need to be determined.
7.2.5 Where an extensometer automatically sets the gauge length, the maximum and minimum gauge lengths
used, plus three more gauge lengths between the minimum and maximum, shall be measured. Where fewer
than five gauge lengths are used, all gauge lengths shall be measured.
7.3 Non-contacting extensometry
The gauge length for non-contacting extensometry is established in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
7.4 Extensometer gauge lengths established using setting gauges
Where an extensometer gauge length is set using a removable gauge, the relative error on the gauge length,
q , calculated from Formula (1) shall not exceed the values given in Table 2.
L
e
The uncertainty of measuring the gauge length shall be three times better than the allowable error in gauge length.
8 Calibration process
8.1 Environmental considerations
8.1.1 The ambient temperature during the calibration of the extensometer system shall be recorded.
In general, the calibration of the extensometer system should be carried out at a temperature stable to within
± 2 °C, the target temperature being within the range 18 °C to 28 °C. Temperature changes during the calibration
process may add to the uncertainty of the calibration and in some cases may affect the ability to properly
calibrate the extensometer.
8.1.2 For extensometers used for uniaxial testing at temperatures outside the range 10 °C to 35 °C, the
calibration should be carried out at or near the test temperature, if facilities exist.
8.1.3 The extensometer shall be placed near the calibration apparatus, or be mounted on it, for a sufficient
length of time prior to its calibration so that the parts of the extensometer system and of the calibration apparatus
which are in contact stabilize at the calibration temperature.
8.2 Position of the extensometer
The extensometer shall be placed, wherever feasible, in the calibration apparatus in a similar orientation to that
in which it will be used during uniaxial testing to avoid errors due to loss of equilibrium or to deformation of any
part of the extensometer.
The extensometer shall be attached in a similar way as during uniaxial testing.
8.3 Calibration increments
8.3.1 The user shall establish the range of displacements over which the extensometer system shall be calibrated.
