In which of the following test specimen is in the form of a cantilever beam?

Izod test specimen is in the form of a cantilever beam.

Detailed Explanation

The Izod test is most commonly used to evaluate the relative toughness or impact toughness of materials and as such is often used in quality control applications where it is a fast and economical test. It is used more as a comparative test rather than a definitive test.

Both Charpy and Izod impact testing are popular methods of determining the impact strength, or toughness, of a material.

Izod test is like the Charpy test, but the Izod geometry consists of a cantilever beam with the notch located on the same side as the impact point.
