Table3 shows the n

Cut the specimens in such amanner that the 300-mm (12-in.) dim

28、ension of each specimenis parallel to the long dimension for Types II and III. For TypeI, cut one half of the specimens as above and cut one half at aright angle thereto, provided that the shingle size permits. Donot test cracked or otherwise damaged specimens, but providesubstitute specimens.9.2.1.

29、1 Warningsee .9.2.2 ProcedureDry each 150 300-mm (6 12-in.)specimen to constant mass in a ventilated oven at a temperatureof 100 to 105C, (212 to 220F), and cool to room temperaturein a desiccator. Record the dry mass of each cooled specimen.Determine the flexural strength of each specimen by placin

30、gthe specimen on supports that cannot exert longitudinal con-straint rocker-type bearing edges, rollers, etc., with a 3.2-mm(18-in.) minimum and a 13-mm (12-in.) maximum radius andapplying the load at midspan through a similar edge bearingagainst the finished surface of the specimen. The test span s

31、hallbe 254 6 2mm(106116 in.) and the load lines and supportsshall be parallel. Mount a dial micrometer reading to 0.02 mm(0.001 in.), or an equally sensitive apparatus to bear on thespecimen at midspan, to determine the deflection of thespecimen at the center of the test span. Increase the loadappli

32、ed at a uniform rate such as will result in failure of thespecimen in approximately 1 min. The error in the load readingshall not exceed 2 N (0.5 lbf). Record the deflection for eachspecimen at maximum load. Take the flexural strength as theultimate load, in newtons (or pounds-force).9.3 Water Absor

Using amicrometer caliper reading to 0.03

36、 mm (0.001 in.), measure theoverall thickness of metal plate and specimen at the approxi-mate midpoint of each edge of the specimen and at least 12.7mm (12 in.) from the edge of the specimen. Subtract themeasured thickness of the metal plate from each measurementand average the four measurements to

37、give the specimenthickness.9.3.3 ProcedureDry the specimens that are prepared inaccordance with 10.3.1 for 24 6 1 h at a temperature of 220 65F (104 6 3C). Measure the thickness of each specimen inaccordance with 10.3.2. Submerge the specimens horizontallyunder 1 in. of water maintained at 70 6 5F (

38、21 6 3C) for 24h. Remove and blot off surface water, remeasure the thicknessat the same locations on the specimen, and express the swellingas percentage of thickness increase based on the thickness afterconditioning.9.4 Product DurabilityRepeat the preparation of a secondset of test specimens in acc

39、ordance with 10.2.1. Subject this setof test specimens to accelerated aging cycles in accordancewith Test Methods D1037.At the end of the cycling procedure,examine each specimen and record any visible evidence ofswelling, checking or cracking. Test the samples for flexuralstrength in accordance with

40、 10.2.2 and the requirements of 5.4.9.5 DensityWeigh the dry specimens that have been usedin the flexural strength test and submerge them for 24 612 hin clean water at from 60 to 80F (15.5 to 27C). Then weigheach sample while submerged in water, and reweigh in air afterblotting off surface water. Th

41、e balances used for the weighingsshould be accurate to 0.5 %. Report the density as the averagevalue for all specimens tested. Calculate the density for eachspecimen as follows:Wet mass in air, g 2 mass in water, g 5 volume, cm3(1)Density, lb/ft35 dry mass, g/volume, cm3! 362.43 (2)10. Inspection an
