1、Designation: D 6662 07Standard Specification forPolyolefin-Based Plastic Lumber Decking Boards1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6662; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A

2、 number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers polyolefin-based plastic lum-ber products for use as exterior residential decking boards.1.2 Plastic lumber

3、 products are currently made predomi-nantly with recycled polyolefin plastics (in particular high-density polyethylene) where the products are more or lessnon-homogenous in the cross-section. However, this specifica-tion is also potentially applicable to similar manufacturedplastic products made fro

4、m other plastic and plastic compositematerials that have non-homogenous cross-sections.1.3 This specification details a procedure to calculate rec-ommended span lengths for spacing of support joists. Thisprocedure was developed using experimental data from atypical unreinforced plastic lumber made p

5、redominantly fromrecycled high-density polyethylene. The methodology to de-velop span lengths for other types and compositions of plasticlumber is detailed in Appendix X1 of this standard.1.4 The values are stated in inch-pound units, as these arecurrently the most common units used by the construct

6、ionindustry. Equivalent SI units are indicated in parentheses.However, the units stated for irradiance exposure in theweatherability section (6.3) are in SI units as these are the unitscommonly used for testing of this type.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if

7、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.NOTE 1There is no similar or equivalent ISO Standard.2.

Dimensions and Permissible VariationsIt is permissible to produce decking boards either in sizesthat are similar to the standard dimensions of the woodindustr

25、y, or to proprietary dimensions designed by manufac-turers. This specification does not limit the dimensional rangeof production. For reference, the standards of the woodindustry are as follows:5.1 ThicknessUnless otherwise specified in 4.1.8, boardsshall be:Nominal (in.) Actual (in.) Tolerance (in.

Over 20 feet, the tolerances will be +12-inch or -116 inchper 20-ft of length or fraction the

Because of loadtransfer between adjacent boards, the methodology and equa-tions presented in section 6.1.4 for determining recommendedmaximum

31、span lengths are not applicable to tongue and grooveboards. Manufacturers of tongue and groove decking boardsshall provide recommended span lengths based on soundengineering practice, taking into account some of the issuesdescribed in 6.1.4 below, as well as previous, in-serviceperformance history.T

Table 3 shows the number of specimens required toestablish the mean value at 75 % confidence interval with 6

34、5 % error using Practice D 2915.(2) The 5 % lower tolerancelimit at 75 % confidence flexural stress at 3 % outer fiber strainshall equal or exceed 1000 psi. If any specimen fails prior toreaching 3 % strain, then the flexural strength at failure for thatspecimen shall equal or exceed 1000 psi. The 5

35、 % lowertolerance limit at 75 % confidence is computed by subtractingK-times the standard deviation from the mean value, where Kis tabulated in statistics handbooks (and in Table 3 of PracticeD 2915) as a factor for a one-sided tolerance limit for thedistribution. Table 4 shows the value of K for se

37、ction. While 50 000 psi is given as aminimum flexural modulus, a modulus greater than 50 000 psi ispotentially required for some decking board sizes in order to meet thisspacing when determining span lengths per the guidance presented in6.1.4 below. Alternatively, use span lengths less than 16 in. o
