The fracture toughness Master Curve is a universal relationship between the median of fracture toughness and temperature in the ductile-brittle transition temperature region of ferritic steels. The Master Curve approach specified in the ASTM standard theoretically provides the confidence levels of fracture toughness in consideration of the inherent scatter of fracture toughness. In this study, fracture toughness tests for Japanese reactor pressure vessel steels, with various specimen sizes and shapes were conducted. The differences in test temperature, evaluation method, and specimen size and shape did not affect the Master Curves, ascertaining that the Master Curve approach could be well applied to these classs of steels. The adequacy of the lower bounds based on the ASTM standard was also verified by comparing with experimental fracture toughness data.
