22、 wood- or cellulose-based materials and plas-tic(s).3.3 OrientationWPCs have three principal directions (seeFig. 1).4. Significance and Use4.1 WPCs are intended for use in both structural andnon-structural applications. The test methods described withinare intended to address products that are manuf

23、actured fromvirgin or recycled wood and thermoplastic sources. Thesemethods provide a reference for the evaluation of severalmechanical and physical properties important for structural andnon-structural uses of WPCs.5. Determination of Mechanical and Physical Properties5.1 The following mechanical a

24、nd physical properties areincluded to provide a complete set of reference tests for a broadrange of users. Some applications of WPCs will not requireassessment of all properties. For example, products that will belimited to flexural applications will not require assessment oftension or compression p

25、roperties.5.2 SamplingSamples for testing shall be representativeof the population being evaluated. Sampling shall be conductedin accordance with applicable portions of Practice D2915 andbe representative of the possible variations due to changes inraw materials and process variables over time. It i

26、s essential toconsider batch-to-batch and shift-to-shift variability whensampling actual production. Test specimens shall be selectedfrom several production runs of a given item.5.3 Sample SizeSelection of a sample size depends uponthe property to be estimated, the actual variation in the propertyoc

27、curring in the population, and the precision with which theproperty is to be estimated. The principles of Practice D2915shall be followed.NOTE 1If code listed allowable design values or performance ratingsare the objective, it is recommended that all sampling and testing beconducted or witnessed, or

28、 both, by a qualified inspection agency.5.4 ConditioningPrior to testing, all specimens shall beconditioned to environmental conditions appropriate for theintended end use of the product.5.4.1 When temperature and relative humidity are importantconsiderations, the test specimens shall be conditioned

29、 for aperiod of time such that the average daily mass change of thetest specimen is less than 2 % of the mass at time of measure.5.4.2 When the product is to be subjected to a water soakenvironment, the test specimens shall be tested within 30 minupon removal from the treatment.3Withdrawn.

32、 accordance with principles of TestMethods D4761 or D6109. For some applications and prod-ucts, moment capacity and flexural stiffness are preferableperformance measures. Whenever possible, the test specimenshall be the full cross section of the as-manufactured product.Selection of specimen dimensio

33、ns establishes the unit volumefor analysis of volume effects in accordance with SpecificationD5456, when applicable. A span-to-depth ratio of not less than16 shall be used. The specimens shall be loaded at a constantstrain rate of 1 % per minute (610 %). Average time to failurefor each test configur

34、ation shall be recorded (see X1.5). Aconstant strain rate of 1 % per minute is achieved by using aconstant rate of test machine cross-head motion, R, (inches/minute) computed in terms of the test span, L, and the memberdepth, d, by the following equation:R 5 0.00185 3L2dNOTE 2WPCs often exhibit exce

35、ptionally large deformations prior tofailure in bending. Users are cautioned to take particular care in testmachine set-up to accommodate large deflections, both in terms ofdeflection measuring devices and support conditions.5.5.1 MORMaximum load for the calculation of MORshall be reported for each

36、specimen. If the calculation is basedon a load other than the maximum load, the load basis shall bereported.NOTE 3For products that exhibit large deformations, the MOR valueis commonly based on the load at 3 % strain.5.5.2 EApparent flexural modulus of elasticity and itscalculation basis shall be re

37、ported for each specimen. Charac-terization of the modulus of elasticity depends upon the use ofthe data. For material property information, E can be calculatedin a variety of ways. For design value assignment purposeslinear least squares fit of the stress-strain curve over anappropriate range of st

38、ress shall be used.NOTE 4To assign design values to structural members the leastsquares fit over a range of 10 to 40 % of ultimate stress is commonlychosen as representative for service loadings. An alternative calculationmethod based on the secant modulus to 1 % strain is commonly used forall-plast

39、ic products.5.6 Tension Parallel to the L DirectionTension strengthparallel to the L direction shall be evaluated by testing inaccordance with the principles of Test Methods D4761. Speci-men cross section shall not be less than the minimum antici-pated structural size. Specimen length between grips

40、shall be aminimum of 12 times the actual test specimen width. Thespecimens shall be loaded at a constant strain rate of 1 % perminute (610 %). Average time to failure for each test configu-ration shall be recorded. If required, selection of specimendimensions establishes the unit volume for the anal

41、ysis ofvolume effects per Specification D5456.5.7 Compression Parallel to the L DirectionShort columncompression strength parallel to the L direction shall bedetermined in accordance with the principles of Test MethodsD4761. Tests shall be conducted on a cross section no less thanthe minimum anticip

42、ated structural size. Length of the speci-men shall be such that l/d is less than 4.5 and greater than 3.0,where l is the effective unsupported length and d is theminimum cross-sectional dimension. For non-solid cross-section materials, the actual cross-sectional area shall becalculated.5.8 Compress

43、ion Perpendicular to the L DirectionCompression strength perpendicular to the L direction shall bedetermined following the measurement and bearing require-ments of Test Method D143, except that the specimen dimen-sions shall be the full cross-section dimension of the WPC, andthe length shall be thre

44、e times the depth. Load shall be appliedthrough a metal bearing plate across the full width of the testspecimen. Stress at both 0.02 and 0.04 in. (0.5 and 1.0 mm) ofdeformation shall be reported. Testing shall be conducted withstresses applied normal to the L-X or L-Y plane, or both, whenrequired fo

45、r general product application. The objective of thistest is to determine the load carrying capacity of the as-manufactured product. The allowable stress derived from thistest will only apply to the actual cross section tested.5.9 Shear Strength:5.9.1 Shear Parallel to the L Direction (Longitudinal S

46、hear)Shear strength parallel to the L direction shall be determinedin accordance with the principles of Test Method D143 usingthe shear block test. Testing shall be done to produce shearfailure in the L-X or L-Y plane, or both. For solid cross-sectionproducts, a minimum dimension of 1.0 in. (25 mm)

47、in the sheararea is acceptable provided that the total shear area is at least1.0 in2. For non-solid cross-section products, the full crosssection shall be tested using the shear block tests with theactual shear area based on wall thickness(s) subjected to theshearing stress.5.9.2 Shear Perpendicular

48、 to the L DirectionShearstrength perpendicular to the L direction shall be determined inaccordance with the principles of Test Method D143 using theshear block test. The Test Method D143 shear block test hasbeen shown to provide a conservative estimate of the shearstrength of wood-based materials. O

49、ther test methods may beapplicable. Testing shall be done to produce shear failure in theX-Y plane. For solid cross-section products a minimum dimen-sion of 1.0 in. (25 mm) in the shear area is acceptable providedthat the total shear area is at least 1.0 in2.NOTE 5For non-solid cross-section products, a shear block testperpendicular to the L direction may not be practical. For some specialcases, such as nonhomogeneous materials or non-solid cross-sectionproducts, alternative test methods such as Test Method D5379/D5379M,will provide additional
