3、ormance rating for wood-plastic composite (WPC) deck boards.This specification also defines the procedures to establish a performance rating for WPC guards and handrails. The purpose of thisspecification is to establish the basis for code recognition of these products or systems in exterior applicat

4、ions where combustibleconstruction is allowed (see X1.1).NOTE 1While WPCs may contain wood fiber, the presence of wood fiber in the composite is not required by this standard. Other lignocellulosicmaterials may be used. For WPC deck boards and guardrail systems evaluated according to this standard,

5、the structural, physical, and fire attributes mayor may not exhibit similarity to those of wood due to the presence, type, and quantity of plastic(s) in the composite. WPCs should not be assumed tobehave similarly to wood. For example, to address the influence of plastic in the composite, special co

6、nsiderations in the standard address sensitivity totemperature, ultraviolet (UV) exposure, and freeze-thaw resistance.1.2 Deck boards, guards, and handrails covered by this specification are permitted to be of any code compliant shape andthickness (solid or non-solid).NOTE 2While WPCs are produced i

7、n a broad range of ratios of fiber to resin it is recognized that the performance requirements in this specificationare valid for any material or combination of materials used as deck boards, guards, or handrails. For products made primarily from resin, or for productsthat exhibit highly plastic pro

8、perties (for example, more than 3 % strain without rupture in a standard flexural test under ambient conditions), users aredirected to Specification D6662 for additional guidance.1.3 A deck board, and a deck board used as a stair tread, are assigned a span rating indicating its ability to comply wit

Terminology3.1 DefinitionsTerminology used to describe WPCs are defined in Terminologies D9, D883, D1554, and D4092, PracticeD1972, and Classification D4000.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 center-point loada flexure test where the load comes in contact with the test spe

29、cimen at a location that is 12 the testspan.3.2.2 guarda building component or a system of building components located at or near the open sides of elevated walkingsurfaces that minimizes the possibility of a fall from the walking surface to a lower level.3.2.3 handraila rail intended for grasping b

30、y the hand for guidance or support.3.2.4 plastic lumbera manufactured product made primarily from plastic materials (filled or unfilled), typically used as abuilding material, which is usually rectangular in cross-section.3.2.5 quarter-point loadinga flexure test where the load comes in contact with

31、 the test specimen at two locations, each ofwhich is located at 14 the span from the specimen load support. For example, quarter-point loading for a test specimen on a 24-in.(610-mm) span would have two equal loads contact the test specimen each located 6 in. in from the test specimen load support.T

32、he distance between the two points of load would be 12 in. (305 mm).3.2.5.1 DiscussionFor example, quarter-point loading for a test specimen on a 24-in. (610-mm) span would have two equal loads contact the testspecimen each located 6 in. in from the test specimen load support. The distance between t

33、he two points of load would be 12 in.(305 mm).3.2.6 span ratingan index number that identifies the test span used in all structural load testing, which is the maximumcenter-to-center support spacing for the specified end use, and allowable design capacity, in pounds per square foot(lbf/ft2 (kNm2), d

34、etermined in accordance with this specification. For example, a deck span rating of 16100 recognizes the deckboard for installation perpendicular to the floor joists spaced a maximum of 16 in. (406 mm) on center, and for supporting the loadcombinations required by the applicable code, which in this

35、case cannot exceed 100 lbf/ft2 (4.79 kN/m2).3.2.6.1 DiscussionFor example, a deck span rating of 16100 recognizes the deck board for installation perpendicular to the floor joists spaced amaximum of 16 in. (406 mm) on center, and for supporting the load combinations required by the applicable code,

36、which in thiscase cannot exceed 100 lbf/ft2 (4.79 kN/m2).3.2.7 third-point loadinga flexure test where the load comes in contact with the test specimen at two locations, each of whichis located at 13 the span from the specimen load support. For example, third-point loading for a test specimen on a 2

37、4-in. (610-mm)span would have two equal loads contact the test specimen each located 8 in. in from the test specimen load support. The distancebetween the two points of load would also be 8 in. (205 mm).3.2.7.1 DiscussionFor example, third-point loading for a test specimen on a 24-in. (610-mm) span

38、would have two equal loads contact the testspecimen each located 8 in. in from the test specimen load support. The distance between the two points of load would also be8 in. (205 mm).3.2.8 wood-plastic composite (WPC)a composite made primarily from wood- or cellulose-based materials and plastic(s).4

39、. General Requirements4.1 SamplingSamples for testing shall be representative of the population being evaluated. Sampling shall be representativeof the possible variations due to changes in raw materials and process variables over time. It is essential to consider batch-to-batchand shift-to-shift va

40、riability when sampling actual production. Test specimens shall be selected from several production runs of a5 Available from International Code Council (ICC), 5203 Leesburg Pike, Suite 600, Falls Church, VA 22041-3401, http:/www.intlcode.org.D7032 143given item. Products shall be sampled at the man

41、ufacturing site by an accredited third party inspection agency or testing laboratory.Exceptions to sampling at the manufacturing site, such as at a warehouse or distribution center, shall be documented in the testreport.4.2 Sample SizeSelection of a sample size depends upon the property to be estima

42、ted, the actual variation in the propertyoccurring in the population, and the precision with which the property is to be estimated. The principles of Practice D2915 shallbe followed. The minimum sample size shall provide estimation of mean values within 5 % in accordance with 3.4.2 of PracticeD2915.

43、4.3 ConditioningPrior to testing, all specimens shall be conditioned to environmental conditions appropriate for the intendedend use of the product. Alternatively, test specimens shall be conditioned for a minimum of 40 h at 68F 6 4F (20C 6 2C)and 50 6 5 % RH. If data show that product properties ar

44、e not affected by extreme moisture conditions, such as submersion, thematerial shall be permitted to be tested without special conditioning. When the product is to be subjected to a water soakenvironment, the test specimens shall be tested within 30 min upon removal from the treatment.4.4 Flexural T

45、estsFlexural strength and stiffness shall be determined in accordance with principles of Test Methods D4761or D6109. Alternatively, to assess compliance with performance requirements in its intended installed configuration, the deckboards shall be tested according to the two-span method defined in A

46、nnex A1. The test specimen cross section shall be theminimum anticipated structural size for the intended end use. The test span shall be that for which code recognition is desired. Thespecimens shall be loaded at a constant strain rate of 1 % per minute (610 %). Average time to failure for each tes

47、t configurationshall be recorded (see Commentary, X1.2). A constant strain rate of 1 % per minute is achieved by using a constant rate of testmachine crosshead motion, R, (inches/minute) computed in terms of the test span, L, and the member depth, d, by the followingequation:R50.001853L2/d (1)For me

48、mbers where the depth (vertical dimension) is varying along the member length, the depth (d) shall be taken as the grossmember depth at the point of maximum moment.NOTE 3Eq 1 is based on the maximum extreme fiber strain at midspan of a horizontally symmetric simple span member. For a product that is

49、symmetric about its horizontal axis, Eq 1 yields the target strain rate at both the extreme tensile and extreme compressive faces. For a product that is notsymmetric about its horizontal axis, the Eq 1 strain rate is the average of the strains at these faces. See Commentary for additional information.NOTE 4Some WPCs wood-plastic composites and plastic lumber exhibit exceptionally large deformations prior to failure in bending. Users arecautioned to take particular care in test machine set-up to accommodate large deflections, both i
