1、Designation: E575 05 (Reapproved 2018)Standard Practice forReporting Data from Structural Tests of BuildingConstructions, Elements, Connections, and Assemblies1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E575; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal ado
2、ption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers general use in reporting structuralperformance tes
3、ts of building constructions, elements,connections, and assemblies. A comprehensive report describ-ing the conditions under which the structural data wererecorded will enable other workers to reproduce the testmethods and, as nearly as possible, the results for each materialor assembly, and to recon
4、cile differences that might be found intests by others.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine t
5、he applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.3 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards, Guides and Recom-mendations iss

Terminology3.1 For definitions of terms used in this practice, seeTerminology E631.4. Significance and Use4.1 This practice provides
7、a standard procedure for report-ing data and results of structural tests used for buildingconstructions, elements, corrections, and assemblies. It enu-merates and discusses the report sections required to reportdata from test methods and practices. The written reports willdescribe the products teste
8、d, method of testing, and results.5. Organization of Report5.1 Generally, a report shall contain the following parts inthe sequence listed:5.1.1 Title page with byline,5.1.2 Object statement,5.1.3 Descriptions of specimen(s) and apparatus,5.1.4 Procedure statement,5.1.5 Discussion of test results,5.
9、1.6 Conclusion,5.1.7 Recommendations,5.1.8 References,5.1.9 Pictures,5.1.10 Tabulations,5.1.11 Calculations, and5.1.12 Supplementary data.5.2 Use the headings listed that are appropriate. Use othermore appropriate headings if they better describe the content.5.3 When the expected readership includes
10、 both experts andlaymen, an early insertion in nontechnical language of thenecessary background, data summary, and results is useful.6. Documented Information6.1 A report shall include the following information, but notnecessarily in the order listed:6.1.1 TitleA title shall be brief but definitive.
11、6.1.2 AuthorOne first name and surname and any profes-sional registration shall be included in a byline for positiveidentification.6.1.3 Date of test and date of report.6.1.4 Test agency, sponsor, and their mailing addresses.6.1.5 Specimen Selection and IdentificationIndicate thenumber of specimens,
12、 method of choosing them, and whetherthey were specially fabricated for this test, prototypes ofplanned production, randomly selected production units, and soforth. If specimens were obtained from routine production,include the manufacturers name, source of supply, specimen1This practice is under th

17、 fastenings.6.1.6 Specimen DrawingsDrawings shall provide a de-scription of the physical characteristics and dimensioned sec-tion profiles and any other pertinent construction details. Thisrequirement may be waived if an existing description is easilyavailable and is included by reference. Any modif
18、ication madeto the specimen to obtain a measurement or reading shall benoted. Any unusual characteristics or conditions existing in thespecimen construction prior to test shall be described.6.1.7 Specimen DesignDetails shall be provided for anunderstanding of the principles used in the structural de
19、sign ofthe specimen.6.1.8 Apparatus DescriptionSufficient details shall beprovided to explain the construction, operation, and position ofthe test apparatus. This description may require a presentationof the structural design of the apparatus, especially if it isoriginal in design or operation. This
20、 requirement may bewaived if an existing description is easily available and isincluded by reference.6.1.9 Specimen InstallationIllustrations and a descriptionof details of installation in or attachment to the test apparatusshall be provided for each type of specimen. Details of restraintdevices and
21、 their location relative to the specimen shall bedescribed as well as the locations of loading and reactionpoints.6.1.10 InstrumentationA report shall describe thelocation, direction of measurement, and technical specifica-tions of any instrumentation used to measure loads, reactions,and deformation
22、s generated by the test apparatus and thespecimen. A description of the working condition, tolerances,and accuracy of such meters is useful. The relative deformationmeasured by each gage shall be described.6.1.11 Ambient ConditionsRecords of temperature, rela-tive humidity, moisture content, seasoni
23、ng, and any otherconditions that are relevant to structural performance of thespecimen shall be included. A history of such conditions fromthe time of construction until the time of test may be moresignificant than those present at the time of test, and therefore,if warranted, measurements of ambien
24、t conditions and thecondition of the specimen from the time of specimen construc-tion shall be made.6.1.12 Specimen WeightA report shall state the amount ofdead load of the apparatus or specimen that has been deductedif the net load or strength is reported or that may be deductedif the gross load or
25、 strength is reported.6.1.13 Load-Deformation GraphsGraphs portraying thespecimens response to loading shall be included for eachdeformation-measuring device.6.1.14 Failure Load and DescriptionSpecimens can havemore than one failure mode, for example, ductile or brittlefracture, yielding, excessive

A description of eachspecimens failure mode and a value of its ultimate strength ormaximum load or both shall be tabulated.6.1.15 Time Under LoadA load-time record is
27、 needed tointerpret some test results and shall be presented as a graph ortabulation to indicate the time duration for each magnitude ofload.6.1.16 PhotographsPhotographs of the specimen beforeand after testing shall be provided to show what cannot bedescribed easily or clearly by writing. However,
28、if the mode offailure is well known, the photographs are optional.6.1.17 Video (optional)A video may be used as a standardpractice for reporting data from structural tests of buildingconstructions, elements, connections, and assemblies. Thevideo may be used in conjunction with a written test report.

If the construction does not representtypical manufacture, deviations shall be noted.7.2 When a standard test
32、 method is used, a statement shallbe included indicating its name and designation. Deviationsfrom it shall be described.8.
