1、Designation: A 416/A 416M 06Standard Specification forSteel Strand, Uncoated Seven-Wire for PrestressedConcrete1This standard is issued under the fixed designationA 416/A 416M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the ye

2、ar of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers two

3、 types and two grades ofseven-wire, uncoated steel strand for use in pretensioned andpost-tensioned prestressed concrete construction. The twotypes of strand are low-relaxation and stress-relieved (normal-relaxation). Low-relaxation strand shall be regarded as thestandard type. Stress-relieved (norm

4、al-relaxation) strand willnot be furnished unless specifically ordered, or by arrangementbetween purchaser and supplier. Grade 1725 250 and Grade1860 270 have minimum ultimate strengths of 1725 MPa250 ksi and 1860 MPa 270 ksi, respectively, based on thenominal area of the strand.1.2 The values state

5、d in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded as standard. Within the text, the inch-poundunits are shown in brackets. The values stated in each systemare not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be usedindependently of the other. Combining values from the twosystems may resul

6、t in nonconformance with the specification.1.3 The supplementary requirements in S1 shall be specifiedfor 15.2-mm 0.600-in. diameter uncoated seven-wire steelstrand if needed for applications in prestressed ground anchors.2.

16、 of seven wires and is produced tomechanical properties only. The chemical composition of all wires or anyindividual wire is not pertinent to this application, and heat identity is notnecessarily maintained. It is possible that wire from more than one heatmay be used in the manufacture of a reel or

17、pack. Traceability is based onpack identity as maintained and reported by the manufacturer.5.3 TreatmentAfter stranding, low-relaxation strand shallbe subjected to a continuous thermal-mechanical treatment toproduce the prescribed mechanical properties. For stress-relieved (normal-relaxation) strand

18、, only thermal treatment isnecessary. Temper colors which result from the stress-relievingoperation are considered normal for the finished appearance ofthis strand.6. Mechanical Properties6.1 Methods of testing for mechanical properties are de-scribed in Annex A7 of Test Methods and Definitions A 37

19、0.Low-relaxation strand shall also be tested as prescribed inMethods E 328.6.2 Breaking StrengthThe breaking strength of the fin-ished strand shall conform to the requirements prescribed inTable 1.6.3 Yield StrengthYield strength in kN pounds shall bemeasured at 1 % extension under load. The minimum

20、 yieldstrength shall be 90 % for low-relaxation strand and 85 % forstress-relieved (normal-relaxation) strand of the breakingstrength listed in Table 1. Initial loads for the test and minimumyield strengths are listed in Table 2.6.3.1 The extension under load shall be measured by anextensometer cali

21、brated with the smallest division not largerthan 0.0001 mm/mm 0.0001 in./in. of gage length.6.4 ElongationThe total elongation under load shall notbe less than 3.5 % using a gage length of not less than 600 mm24 in. It shall be permissable to determine the total elonga-tion value by adding, to the 1

22、.0 % yield extension, the percentextension or movement between the jaws gripping the strandafter yield determination. The percent is calculated on the newbase length of jaw-to-jaw distance.6.5 Relaxation PropertiesLow-relaxation strand shallhave relaxation losses of not more than 2.5 % when initiall

23、yloaded to 70 % of specified minimum breaking strength or notmore than 3.5 % when loaded to 80 % of specified minimumbreaking strength of the strand after 1000 h tested under theconditions listed in 6.5.1 through 6.5.7.6.5.1 If required, relaxation evidence shall be provided fromthe manufacturers re

24、cords of tests on similarly dimensionedstrand of the same grade.6.5.2 The temperature of the test specimen shall be main-tained at 20 6 2C 68 6 3.5F.6.5.3 The test specimen shall not be subjected to loadingprior to the relaxation test.6.5.4 The initial load shall be applied uniformly over aperiod of

25、 not less than 3 min and not more than 5 min, and thegage length shall be maintained constant; load relaxationreadings shall commence 1 min after application of the totalload.6.5.5 Over-stressing of the test specimen during the loadingoperation shall not be permitted.6.5.6 The duration of the test s

26、hall be 1000 h or a shorterperiod of at least 200 h, provided it can be shown by recordsthat an extrapolation of the shorter period test results to 1000h will provide similar relaxation values as the full 1000 h test.6.5.7 The test gage length shall be at least 60 times thenominal diameter. If this

27、gage length exceeds the capacity ofthe extensometer or testing machine, then it shall be permittedto substitute a gage length of 40 times the nomimal stranddiameter.7. Dimensions and Permissible Variations7.1 The size of the finished strand shall be expressed as thenominal diameter of the strand in

28、millimetres inches.7.2 The diameter of the center wire of any strand shall belarger than the diameter of any outer wire in accordance withTable 3.7.3 Permissible Variations in Diameter:7.3.1 All Grade 1725 250 strand shall conform to a sizetolerance of 60.40 mm 60.016 in. from the nominal diam-eter

35、e shall be no strand joints or strand splices in anylength of the completed strand unless specifically permitted bythe purchaser.8.1.2 During the process of manufacture of individual wiresfor stranding, welding shall be permitted only prior to or at thesize of the last thermal treatment, for example

36、, patenting orcontrolled cooling. There shall be no welds in the wire after ithas been drawn through the first die in the wire drawing exceptas provided in 8.1.3.8.1.3 During fabrication of the strand, butt-welded joints arepermitted in the individual wires, provided there shall not bemore than one

37、such joint in any 45-m 150-ft section of thecompleted strand.8.1.4 When specifically ordered as “Weldless,” a productfree of welds shall be furnished. When “Weldless” is specified,the strand is produced as one continuous length with no weldsas allowed by 8.1.3.8.2 The finished strand shall be unifor

If any wire flies out of position and canbe replaced by hand, the strand shall be considered satisfactory.8.4 The

39、strand shall not be oiled or greased. Slight rusting,provided it is not sufficient to cause pits visible to the unaidedeye, shall not be cause for rejection.TABLE 2 Yield Strength RequirementsStrandDesignationNo.Nominal Diameterof Strandmm in.Initial Load,kN lbfMinimum Load at 1 % Extension,kN lbfLo
