Summary of Test Method4.1 A bar test specimen of rectangular cross section rests on two supports in a flat-wise position and is loaded by means of aloading nose located midway between the supports. A support span-to-depth ratio of 16:1 shallUnless testing certain laminatedmaterials (see 7

Procedure Aemploys a strain rate of 0.01 mm/mm/min (0.01

Significance and Use5.1 Flexural properties as determined by these test methods are especially useful for quality control

30、and specification purposes.5.1 Materials that do not fail by the maximum strain allowed under these test methods (3-point bend) may be more suited toa 4-point bend test. The basic difference between the two test methods is in the location of the maximum bending moment andmaximum axial fiber stresses

31、. The maximum axial fiber stresses occur on a line under the loading nose in 3-point bending and overthe area between the loading noses in 4-point bending. Flexural properties as determined by this test method are especially usefulfor quality control and specification purposes. They include:2 For re

34、nt, the maximum stress in the outer surface of the test specimen occurs at the midpoint. Flexural stressis calculated for any point on the load-deflection curve using equation (Eq 3) in Section 12 (see Notes 5 and 6).NOTE 5Eq 3 applies strictly to materials for which stress is linearly proportional

35、to strain up to the point of rupture and for which the strains are small.Since this is not always the case, a slight error will be introduced if Eq 3 is used to calculate stress for materials that are not true Hookean materials.The equation is valid for obtaining comparison data and for specificatio

36、n purposes, but only up to a maximum fiber strain of 5 % in the outer surfaceof the test specimen for specimens tested by the procedures described herein.NOTE 6When testing highly orthotropic laminates, the maximum stress may not always occur in the outer surface of the test specimen.5 Laminatedbeam

37、 theory must be applied to determine the maximum tensile stress at failure. If Eq 3 is used to calculate stress, it will yield an apparent strength basedon homogeneous beam theory. This apparent strength is highly dependent on the ply-stacking sequence of highly orthotropic laminates.5.1.2 Flexural

38、Stress for Beams Tested at Large Support Spans (f)If support span-to-depth ratios greater than 16 to 1 are usedsuch that deflections in excess of 10 % of the support span occur, the stress in the outer surface of the specimen for a simple beamis reasonably approximated using equation (Eq 4) in 12.3

39、(see Note 7).NOTE 7When large support span-to-depth ratios are used, significant end forces are developed at the support noses which will affect the moment ina simple supported beam. Eq 4 includes additional terms that are an approximate correction factor for the influence of these end forces in lar

40、ge supportspan-to-depth ratio beams where relatively large deflections exist.5.1.3 Flexural Strength (fM)Maximum flexural stress sustained by the test specimen (see Note 6) during a bending test. Itis calculated according to Eq 3 or Eq 4. Some materials that do not break at strains of up to 5 % give

41、 a load deflection curve thatshows a point at which the load does not increase with an increase in strain, that is, a yield point (Fig. 1, Curve b), Y. The flexuralstrength is calculated for these materials by letting P (in Eq 3 or Eq 4) equal this point, Y.5.1.4 Flexural Offset Yield StrengthOffset

42、 yield strength is the stress at which the stress-strain curve deviates by a given strain(offset) from the tangent to the initial straight line portion of the stress-strain curve. The value of the offset must be given wheneverthis property is calculated.NOTE 8Flexural Offset Yield Strength may diffe

46、 break of the test specimen during a bending test. It is calculatedaccording to Eq 3 or Eq 4. Some materials give a load deflection curve that shows a break point, B, without a yield point (Fig.1, Curve a) in which case fB = fM. Other materials give a yield deflection curve with both a yield and a b

47、reak point, B (Fig. 1,Curve b). The flexural stress at break is calculated for these materials by letting P (in Eq 3 or Eq 4) equal this point, B.5.1.6 Stress at a Given StrainThe stress in the outer surface of a test specimen at a given strain is calculated in accordancewith Eq 3 or Eq 4 by letting

48、 P equal the load read from the load-deflection curve at the deflection corresponding to the desiredstrain (for highly orthotropic laminates, see Note 6).5.1.7 Flexural Strain, fNominal fractional change in the length of an element of the outer surface of the test specimen atmidspan, where the maxim

Flexural strain is calculated for any deflection using Eq 5 in 12.4.5.1.8 Modulus of Elasticity:5.1.8.1 Tangent Modulus of ElasticityThe tangent modulus of elasticity, often called the “modulus of elasticity,” is the ratio,within the elastic limit, of stress to corresponding strain. It is calculated by drawing a tangent to the steepest initial straight-lineportion of the load-deflection curve and using Eq 6 in 12.5.1 (for highly anisotropic composites, see Note 15).NOTE 9Shear deflections can seriously reduce the apparent mo
