United States14.1.7 Special requirements (such as, indentation sidewall angle or outside inspection), if any.5. Materials and Manufacture5.1 The steel shall be made by the electric-arc furn

15、ace, basic-oxygen, or open-hearth any commercially accepted process.5.2 The base metal shall be carbon steel of such quality that when drawn to wire, indented, and then thermo-mechanicallytreated, shall have the properties and characteristics prescribed in this specification.6. Mechanical Property R

16、equirements6.1 GeneralIndented wire shall be supplied in coils, packs, or spools to the specified mechanical properties in Table 1. It shallbe permissible to furnish diameters of wire not specifically itemized in this specification, provided that the strength is defined andthey conform otherwise to

17、the requirements of this specification.6.2 Tensile StrengthThe minimum tensile strength of the indented wire shall conform to the requirements of Table 1. Othervalues of tensile strength and nominal diameters can be specified if shown by test that the strength exceeds that specified. Thetension test

18、 shall be made in accordance with Test Methods A370.6.3 Load at 1 % ExtensionThe load at 1 % extension shall be at least 90 % of the minimum specified tensile strength whentested in accordance with Test Methods A370.6.4 ElongationThe percent elongation after fracture on a 10-in. 250-mm gage length s

19、hall be 3.0 % minimum.6.5 Bend TestA 90 degree bend test (see Fig. 1) around a pin six times the nominal diameter of the wire shall be performedonce per pack/coil for each row of indentations, with the centerline of the row of indentations located at the outside of the bend.The wire shall be bent at

20、 a uniform rate, with the duration of test to be between 10 and 30 seconds. The bend location along theaxis of the wire specimen shall be random and three locations shall be tested along the specimen, for a total of nine bends per test.Each bend shall be inspected after testing to ensure no cracking

21、 or breaking occurred.6.6 RelaxationRelaxation properties shall be provided at least annually from records of tests on finished wire. Additionalrelaxation tests shall be conducted if there is a change in raw rod supply or type. Tests to satisfy this requirement shall complywith the conditions of Sup

22、plementary Requirement S6 of Specification A421/A421M. The relaxation losses are not to exceed3.5 % after 1000 hours when tested at an initial load of 80 % of minimum tensile strength.7. Requirements for Indentations7.1 IndentationsIndentations shall be in three lines spaced uniformly around the wir

23、e with one line of indentations inclinedin the opposite direction to the other two. The indentations shall be placed in respect to the axis of the wire so that the includedangle is not less than 45, as shown in Fig. 2. Pitch and shape shall be consistent , with not more than 10 % being malformed ina

24、ny 2 ft 600 mm length of wire, judged visually. Criteria for what constitutes a malformed indentation shall be mutually agreedupon between manufacturer and purchaser as required.7.2 TypeTwo acceptable types of indented wire are shown in Fig. 2(a) and (b), with dimensions in Table 2.7.3 OptionsOther

25、types of indented wire are permitted by agreement, provided the wire is comparable with the accepted typesin mechanical properties and bond with concrete.TABLE 1 Tensile Strength RequirementsNominalDiameterTensileStrengthNominalAreaANominal WeightMass, lb/1000 ftg/min. mm lbf kN in.2 mm20.198 5.03 7

28、eight of 1 in.3 of steel) 7.850 106 kg/mm3 (mass of 1 mm3 of steel). The amount of variation is dependent onthe shape and character of the indentations.A881/A881M 1527.4 Indentation Sidewall AngleThe manufacturer and purchaser shall agree upon minimum and maximum indentationsidewall angles (as shown

29、 in Fig. 2). The manufacturer shall demonstrate process controls to meet mutually agreed uponrequirements.NOTE 1Shallow indentation sidewall angles can impart excessive radial forces into the concrete. Similarly, angles that are too steep can reducetransfer length to the point of creating excessive

30、bond demand on the concrete. Depth of indentation, concrete properties at release of prestress, and wiresurface condition are other factors to take into consideration when determining min/max allowable indentation sidewall angles8. Permissible Variation in Dimensions8.1 The diameter as determined by

31、 weight mass of the indented wire shall not vary from the nominal diameter by more than60.003 in. 60.08 mm. Diameter as determined by weight mass shall be calculated using the weight mass of any given lengthof wire and densities provided in footnote of Table 1.FIG. 1 Bend Test ConfigurationFIG. 2 Ac

32、ceptable Type of Indented WireA881/A881M 1538.2 The indented wire shall not be out-of-round by more than 0.003 in. 0.08 mm. (Measured using a depth gauge by placingthe wire on a flat surface and checking maximum/minimum diameters at the same cross section. Out-of-round is the differencebetween maxim

33、um and minimum diameters measured.)9. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance9.1 The wire shall be free of kinks.9.2 The wire shall be furnished in firmly tied coils, packs, or spools and packaged in such a way to prevent rubbing or collapseduring shipment. Each coil, pack, or spool shall be of one cont

34、inuous length.9.3 There shall be no welds or joints in the finished wire, unless the manufacturer and purchaser mutually agree on a weldingprocess done on wire rod prior to any cold drawing that results in wire properties that are consistent with the intended use. Anywelds or joints made after the i

35、nitial drawing process shall be removed.9.4 Cast (Curvature)The curvature of the wire shall be 3 in. 75 mm maximum offset on a chord 6 ft 1.8 m long.9.5 The wire shall not be oiled or greased and must be essentially free of residual wire-drawing lubricants. Slight rusting,providing it is not suffici

36、ent to cause pits visible to a person with normal or corrected vision, shall not be cause for rejection.10. Sampling10.1 Unless otherwise agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser, test specimens shall be taken from each coil,pack, or spool in a lot (see Note 2) and tested to determine

37、compliance with 6.2 6.5 and Sections 7, 8, and 9.NOTE 2The term “lot” means all the coils, packs, or spools of wire of the same nominal wire diameter contained in an individual shipping releaseor shipping order.11. Inspection11.1 The purchaser shall state, at the time of order, whether outside inspe

38、ction is required. If outside inspection is required, themanufacturer shall afford the inspector representing the purchaser all reasonable facilities to satisfy him that the material is beingfurnished in accordance with this specification. All tests and inspections shall be made at the place of manu

39、facture prior toshipment, unless otherwise agreed upon at the time of purchase, and shall be so conducted without unnecessarily interfering withmanufacturing operations.12. Rejection12.1 In case a test specimen fails to meet any requirement of this specification, two additional tests shall be made o

40、n samplesof wire from the same coil, pack, or spool and if failure occurs in either of these tests, the coil/pack/spool shall be rejected.12.2 Unless otherwise specified, any rejection based on tests made in accordance with this specification shall be reported to themanufacturer within a reasonable

41、length of time.TABLE 2 Dimensions of IndentationsNOTE 1Indentation sidewall angle shall be measured along the centerline axis of the wire through the center of indentation.
