CSA Z662 includes notch toughness requirements and aluminum piping systems for ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not specified
• D. Only ferrous materials

Answer: (A)

CSA Z662 covers the safety and performance of oil and gas piping systems in Canada, including how materials must perform under service conditions. It includes notch toughness (impact) requirements for materials where brittle fracture could be a concern, especially at lower design temperatures, to ensure welded joints and base metals can absorb impact and resist sudden fracture. It also governs non-ferrous piping, including aluminum, outlining material, welding, fabrication, testing, and inspection requirements for those systems. So the standard indeed addresses notch toughness for applicable materials and allows aluminum piping systems, covering both ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
