Tensile and fracture toughness tests of coolant piping materials were performed at various loading rates and temperatures. The crack measurement method for coolant piping materials consisted of the unloading compliance method for quasi-static loading conditions and condition, while the electric potential drop method and the normalization method for quasi-dynamic loading conditions. Tensile and fracture toughness tests of coolant piping materials were performed at the design temperatures of the primary piping system of nuclear power plants, which are 449K (176℃) and 589K (316℃). Also, the plastic η factor considering strength mismatch of welding part was applied to the fracture toughness test results and the J-R curves by the plastic η factor considering strength mismatch of welding part was compared with the J-R curves by the plastic η factor introduced in ASTM E1820-01.
