Scope*1.1 This specification covers two types of stress-relievedround high-carbon steel wire commonly used in prestressedconcrete construction, as follows:1.1.1 Type BA wire is used for applications in whichcold-end deformation is used for anchoring purpo

4、ses (ButtonAnchorage), and1.1.2 Type WA wire is used for application in which the endsare anchored by wedges, and no cold-end deformation of thewire is involved (Wedge Anchorage).1.2 A supplementary requirement (S1) is provided for usewhere low-relaxation wire and relaxation testing for thatproduct

16、minimum tensile strength.5.2.2 The extension under load shall be measured by anextensometer calibrated with the smallest division not largerthan 0.0001 in./in. 0.0001 mm/mm of gage length.5.2.3 The initial load corresponding to the initial stressprescribed in Table 2 shall be applied to the specimen

17、, at whichtime the extensometer is attached and adjusted to a reading of0.001 in./in. 0.001 mm/mm of gage length.
