First you had failed to provide me with evidence for your claim that the NIST fire model is consistent with your belief that 10% of the steel sample was above 250c, now you fail to provide me with the evidence to support you claim that determining of residual stresses and metastables phases in welds are as you say, "Exotic".


The fact of the matter is, when it comes to determining if steel/welds have been exposed to elevated temps, metastable phases and residual stresses would bascially be Metallography 101.
