1、Designation: C 880/C 880M 09Standard Test Method forFlexural Strength of Dimension Stone1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 880/C 880M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A

2、 number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the procedure for determiningthe flexural strength of stone by use of a simple beam usingquarter-point loading

3、.1.2 Stone tests shall be made when pertinent for the situa-tion when the load is perpendicular to the bedding plane andwhen the load is parallel to the bedding plane.1.3 As required, the flexural tests shall also be conductedunder wet conditions.1.4 UnitsThe values stated in either SI units or inch

4、-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. Thevalues stated in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other.Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.5 This standard does not purpor

5、t 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 and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use4.1 This test method is useful in indicating the differences inflexural strength between the vari

7、ous dimension stones. Thistest method also provides one element in comparing stones ofthe same type.5. Apparatus5.1 Testing Machine (Fig. 1), conforming to the require-ments of the applicable sections of Practices E4. The quarter-point loading method shall be used in making flexure tests ofstone emp

8、loying bearing blocks which will ensure that forcesapplied to the beam will be vertical only and applied withouteccentricity. The apparatus should be capable of maintainingthe span length and distances between load-applying blocksand support blocks constant within 60.05 in. 61 mm. Theload should be

9、capable of being applied at a uniform rate andin such a manner as to avoid shock.6. Sampling6.1 Select the sample to represent a true average of the typeor grade of stone under consideration and of the qualitysupplied to the market under the type designation to be tested.The sample may be selected b

10、y the purchaser or his authorizedrepresentative from the quarried stone or taken from the naturalledge and shall be of adequate size to permit the preparation ofthe desired number of test specimens. When perceptiblevariations occur, the purchaser may select as many samples asare necessary for determ

11、ining the variations in flexuralstrength.7. Test Specimen7.1 The test specimens shall measure 4 in. 100 mm wideby 1.25 in. 30 mm thick by 15 in. 350 mm long, with a spanas tested of 12.5 in. 300 mm. The sides of the specimen shallbe at right angles with the top and bottom. The specimens shallhave a

12、fine abrasive finish on the planes perpendicular to theload and a fine saw finish on the other four planes. Thedimensions of the specimen shall be measured and recorded tothe nearest 0.01 in. 0.1 mm. A minimum of five specimensshall be tested for each condition of test. The average value ofthe test

13、results is reported as the flexural strength of the stone.7.2 Where this test method is specified in the physicalrequirements of an ASTM C18 Standard Specification for adimension stone, the test specimens shall meet the require-ments under 7.1.7.3 Where the job thickness has been set (for example, t

14、hethickness of the stone panels for the project has been estab-lished), it is often requested to perform flexure tests at the jobthickness. The following shall govern the specimen size where1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C18 onDimension Stone and is the direct responsi

The specimen lengths shall be not less than2 in. 50 mm and not more than 4 in. 100 mm greater thanthe span as tested. Where the thickness is less than 2.67 in.70 mm, the width of the specimen shall be 4 in. 100 mm.

18、Where the thickness is greater than 2.67 in. 70 mm the widthshall be 1.5 times the thickness. Where the thickness is otherthan 1.25 in. 30 mm and the specimen size is in accordancewith the job thickness criteria noted in the foregoing, theaverage value of the test results shall be reported as the fl

All other require-ments shall be in accordance with 7.1.7.4 Where the job surface finish has been set (for example,the architectural finish on the panels for the project has beenestablished), it is often requested to perform flexure tests onspecimens

20、 with the finish the same as on the job. The followingshall govern when it is requested to test at the job surfacefinish. The specimens shall have a finish on one planeperpendicular to the load in accordance with the finish speci-fied for the job. Unless there is data to the contrary, thepositioning

21、 of the specimen should be with the finished face inflexural tension. The average value of the test results shall bereported as the flexural strength of the stone at the job surfacefinish. All other requirements shall be in accordance with 7.1and 7.3.7.5 Where the specimens conform to the requiremen

22、ts of 7.3and 7.4, the average value of the test results shall be reportedas the flexural strength of the stone at the job thickness andsurface finish.7.6 Test results obtained by this test method are those offlexural strength properties. In specific applications, test speci-mens of different geometr

23、y may give useful results in terms ofa modulus of rupture value.8. Conditioning8.1 Before testing the specimens in a dry condition, drythem for 48 h at 140 6 4F 60 6 2C. At the 46th, 47th and48th hour, weigh the specimens to ensure that the weight is thesame. If the weight continues to drop, continu

24、e to dry thespecimens until there are three successive hourly readings withthe same weight. After removing the specimens from the oven,cool them to room temperature in a desiccator before testingthem.8.2 Before testing the specimens in a wet condition, im-merse them in water for 48 h at 72 6 4F 22 6

25、 2C. Testthem immediately upon removal from the bath, wiping thespecimens free of surface water.9. Procedure9.1 Assemble the apparatus and place the specimen on thespan supports and adjust the quarter point loading blocks intocontact with the specimen.9.2 Apply the load at a uniform stress rate of 6
