16、(TBT) Committee.14.3 Deflection versus time data can be used to predict timeto failure of corrugated shipping containers under constantload.5. Apparatus5.1 Fixed-Platen Testing MachineTwo platens, flat towithin 0.01 in. (0.25 mm) for each 12 in. (304.8 mm) in length,one of which is movable in the ve

17、rtical direction so as tocompress the container between the platens. One is the loadmeasuring platen, and both should be of sufficient size so thatthe test container does not extend beyond the edges of theplatens. Both platens are fixed in the horizontal directions sothat the lateral movement is not

18、 greater than 0.05 in. (1.3 mm),and are held parallel throughout the test to within 0.04 in. (1mm) for each 12 in. (304.8 mm) in the length and widthdimensions. See Fig. 1. The testing machine should be capableto maintain load within 1 % of the required level for theduration of the test.5.2 Closing

19、Equipment for Fiberboard BoxesSuitable ma-terials and application equipment for closing boxes should beused. If adhesives are used, sealing boards described in TestMethod D642 may be needed.5.3 Conditioning ApparatusAdequate facilities shall beprovided to maintain a conditioned atmosphere of tempera

20、tureand humidity as required for the purpose of the test.5.4 Miscellaneous EquipmentDrying oven, scales, knife,saws, and the like, for use in determination of the moisturecontent or for making other supplementary tests of the mate-rials from which the containers are made.6. Calibration6.1 The accura

21、cy of the test equipment must be verified toensure reliable test data.6.1.1 The overall system accuracy of the recorded or indi-cated applied load (force) shall be verified in accordance withPractice E4. The verified loading range shall be specified, anderrors within the loading range shall not exce

If testing below thePractice E4 verified loading range is desired, then the maxi-mum permissible error shall not exceed 60.2 % of the fullrange of the force sensor, calculated as follows:E 5 FS30.002FIG. 1 Corrugated Container Under Creep Test

The error,in

24、cluding the effects of any backlash in the loading system,shall not exceed 60.1 in. (62.5 mm).6.1.3 The accuracy of the platen travel rate at 0.5 in./min(12.7 mm/min) must be verified throughout each loading rangein accordance with the equipment manufacturers recom-mended procedures. The error, incl

25、uding any backlash in theloading system, shall not exceed 60.10 in./min (62.5 mm/min).7. Test Specimens and Number of Tests7.1 The containers being tested shall be complete in allrespects. Tests should be conducted on empty containers. Thecontainers should be closed and secured in the same manner as

26、will be used in preparing them for shipment (for example, tape,strapping). Include any internal load-bearing members likepartitions, and corner posts, if used in actual shipments.7.2 Performance should be based on tests of not fewer thanfive representative specimens of a given size and type ofcontai

27、ner.7.3 Refer to Practice E122 for additional information onsample size.8. Conditioning8.1 When required, the container should be conditioned forthe static load test by exposure to fixed or controlled variableconditions of temperature and humidity.8.1.1 Where applicable, a special atmosphere selecte

28、d fromthose specified in Practice D4332 may be used.8.2 The test container shall be preconditioned in the desiredatmosphere for such a time as is necessary to bring thecontainer into equilibrium with that atmosphere and using thetechniques in Practice D685.9. Procedure9.1 Select the constant load to

29、 which the container will besubjected. The selection may be based on:9.1.1 The load to which a bottom container in a stack will besubjected to in storage.9.1.2 A percentage of the value obtained by Test MethodD642 on a similar container.9.2 Center the specimen on the bottom platen of the testingappa

30、ratus so as not to incur eccentric loading.9.3 Place the test load on the specimen. The load shall beapplied with a continuous motion of the movable platen of thetesting machine at a speed of 0.5 6 0.1 in. (12.7 6 2.5mm)/min until the specified load is attained.

PROCEDURE TO PREDICT CONTAINER LIFE TO FAILUREA1.1 The following discussion demonstrates a method ofcalculation for time-to-failure using 12-h creep data. A straightline is fitted to the deflect

43、ion versus time data for a particularload level from the 12-h creep test. The fit can be donegraphically or by using curve fitting software. The slope of thestraight line is the average creep rate during the 12-h test forthis load level. This average creep rate is then adjusted to yieldthe average c

(A1.1)where:R12= average creep rate in 12-h test (slope of straight linefitted to creep data), andP = load level expressed as a percent of Test Method D642compression strength.A1.2 The predicted time-to-failure is the time required toreac
