1、Designation: C 99 87 (Reapproved 2006)Standard Test Method forModulus of Rupture of Dimension Stone1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 99; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision

2、. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon (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. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the

3、modu-lus of rupture of all types of dimension stone except slate.1.2 This standard does not purport 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 appl

4、ica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2C119 Terminology Relating to Dimension Stone3. Terminology3.1 DefinitionsAll definitions are in accordance with Ter-minology C119.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is useful in indicating the diffe

5、rences inmodulus of rupture between the various dimension stones. Thistest method also provides one element in comparing stones ofthe same type.5. Apparatus5.1 Testing Machine The accuracy of the testing machineshall be within 1 % for the range from 10 to 1000 lbf (44 to4450 N).5.2 Knife Edges The s

6、upports for the specimen shall betwo knife edges of the rocker type (Fig. 1) with edges at leastas long as the width of the specimen. The loading knife edgemay be of either the rocker or rigid type.6. Sampling6.1 Select the sample to represent a true average of the typeor grade of stone under consid

7、eration and of the qualitysupplied to the market under the type designation to be tested.The sample may be selected by 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

8、test specimens. When perceptiblevariations occur, the purchaser may select as many samples asare necessary for determining the variations in modulus ofrupture.7. Test Specimens7.1 The specimens shall be approximately 4 by 8 by 214 in.(101.6 by 203.2 by 57.2 mm) in size. They shall be sawed fromthe s

9、ample and finished by grinding to smooth surfaces. The 4by 8-in. faces shall be as nearly plane and parallel as practi-cable. For loading perpendicular to the rift (Note 1) fivespecimens shall be prepared with the 4 by 8-in. faces parallelto the rift planes (see A2in Fig. 1), and for loading paralle

10、l tothe rift, five specimens shall be prepared with the 4 by 214-in.(101.6 by 57.2 mm) faces parallel to the rift (Note 2). Whentests are desired on the stone in both the wet and dry condition,ten specimens shall be prepared for each direction of loading;that is, five for tests dry, perpendicular to

11、 the rift, five for testswet, perpendicular to the rift, etc.NOTE 1The term rift is used here to designate the direction in whichthe stone splits most easily. In stratified stones it is considered to coincidewith the bedding or stratification. The rift direction should always bemarked on the sample

12、by the quarryman, since it often is not possible todetermine it on a small block.NOTE 2Another condition of loading may occur in structures whenthe rift planes are vertical and parallel to the length of the beam. Thestrength of the stone may be obtained for such loading by cutting thespecimens with

13、the 214 by 8-in. (57.2 by 203.2-mm) face parallel to therift. The meager data available for this condition of loading indicates thatthe strength is at least as high as when the load is applied perpendicular1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C18 onDimension Stone and is the

16、Marking and Measuring Specimens8.1 On the 4 by 8-in. (101.6 by 203.2-mm) face draw thecenter line perpendicular to one edge (8 by 214-in. (203.2 by57.2-mm) face) and extend down both edges perpendicular tothe 4 by 8-in. face. At a distance of 3.5 in. (88.9 mm) each wayfrom the center line, draw two

17、similar sets of lines (span lines,“a”inFig. 1). Mark each specimen to indicate the direction ofthe rift and label with suitable numbers or letters for identifi-cation in measuring and testing.8.2 Measure the dimensions of the cross section on thecenter line. Measure the width to the nearest 0.01 in.

18、 (0.25 mm)and take the thickness as the average of three measurements tothe nearest 0.01 in., one taken at the center and one near eachedge.9. Conditioning9.1 Before testing the specimens in a dry condition, drythem for 48 h at 60 6 2C (140 6 4F). At the 46th, 47th and48th hour, weigh the specimens

19、to ensure that the weight is thesame. If the weight continues to drop, continue 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.9.2 Before testing the

20、 specimens in a wet condition, im-merse them in water for 48 h at 22 6 2C (72 6 4F). Testthem immediately upon removal from the bath, wiping thespecimens free of surface water.10. Procedure10.1 Lay the specimen flatwise on the supporting knifeedges, spaced 7 in. (177.8 mm) apart and equidistant from

21、 theloading knife edges (Note 3), with all three knife edgesparallel. When a load of 10 lbf (44 N) has been applied, stopthe loading and make all knife edges coincide with the markson the specimen by centering the specimen under the loadingedge and moving the supporting edges under the span marks.A1

Calculation11.1 Calculate the modulus of rupture of each specimen asfollows:R 5 3Wl/2bd2(1)where:R = modulus of rupture, psi (or MPa),W = breaking load, lbf (or N),l = length of span, in. (or mm),b = width of specimen, in. (or mm). andd = thickness of specimen, in. (or mm),1

25、2. Report12.1 Report the average of all values of modulus of rupturefor test specimens loaded perpendicular to the rift as themodulus of rupture perpendicular to the rift, and report theaverage for all test specimens loaded parallel to the rift as themodulus of rupture parallel to the rift. In case

26、any specimengives a value of as much as 20 % under the average it shall beexamined for defects and, if the low value appears to be due toa flaw or faulty test piece, report the average of the remainingspecimens of the group as the modulus of rupture of the samplefor the condition of loading under co
