Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These test methods cover the determination o

3、f theflexural modulus and bending strength of both tangent anddeadend arms bent about their minor and major axes. Onemethod covers testing of assembled tangent crossarms includ-ing the tangent bracket and relative hardware. The othermethod covers testing of assembled deadend crossarms with adeadend

Thefailure modes and associated stresses can be used for predictingthe phase load capacities of pultruded crossarms specific tocertain conductor loading scenarios.1.2 The test methods described in this standard can be usedfor predicting the vertical and h

5、orizontal component loads ofdeadend and tangent arms. Both deadend and tangent cros-sarms shall be tested in the two configurations described inFigures 1 and 2. This will permit the manufactures to publishboth vertical and horizontal design capacities for deadendcrossarm configurations so that two w

Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in nonconformancewith the standard.1.4 This standard will not address all factors that affect thephase loading capacity.1.5 This standard does not address the

8、use of core materialsthat are added to increase the structural capacity of thecrossarms. Core material shall not be considered in thecalculations provided in this standard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

Summary of Test Methods Including Deadend andTangent Crossarm Configurations with CommercialHardware Attached4.1 Deadend Crossarms:4.1.1 The assemb

16、led deadend crossarm, including twophase single sided position hardware and a center mountbracket fabricated to the specifications as detailed by themanufacturer, is positioned in a three point bend apparatus andloaded until failure occurs.4.1.2 A center mount bracket or a fabricated test bracket,ma

17、tching the bolt size and dimensional specifications of themanufacturers commercial bracket, is attached to the arm asdetailed by the manufacturer.4.1.3 A three point bend load is then induced into the crossarm assembly until a structural failure of the hardware orcrossarm occurs.4.1.4 The bracket is

18、 to be loaded or constrained, dependingon the load apparatus, such that no eccentric loading occurs.4.1.5 Load and deflection data are to be recorded at setintervals or continuously until failure occurs.4.2 Tangent Crossarms:4.2.1 The assembled tangent crossarm, including two phasesingle sided deade

19、nd position hardware and a center mounttangent bracket fabricated to the specifications as detailed bythe manufacturer, is positioned in a three point bend apparatusand loaded until failure occurs.4.2.2 A tangent bracket, matching the specifications, of themanufacturers commercial bracket, is attach

20、ed to the arm asdetailed by the manufacturer.4.2.3 A three point bend load is then induced into thecrossarm assembly such that the bracket and phase hardware isloaded until failure.4.2.4 The bracket is to be loaded or constrained, dependingon the load apparatus, such that the load produces eccentric

21、loading into the bracket and arm mimicking the tangentconnection to a wood, fiberglass, steel or concrete pole.4.2.5 Load and deflection data are to be recorded at setintervals or continuously until failure occurs.5. Significance and Use5.1 Determination of the flexural modulus, beam bendingstrength

22、 and full assembly strength, by this test method isespecially useful for product validation, design and specifica-tion purposes.5.2 Calculated values for flexural modulus, bendingstrength and full assembly strength will vary with specimendepth, span length, hole configurations, loading rate, andambi

23、ent test temperature. A minimum span to depth ratio of16:1 is required for establishing the flexural modulus.5.3 ValidityStress at failure, , is only valid for crossarmfailures due to local compression buckling. Other controllingmodes of failure will dictate the ultimate phase loadingcapacities. For

24、 example, in-plane shear, fastener pin bearing,position hardware, center mount failures and fastener pull outwill dictate the failure mode and ultimately the crossarmcapacity.6. Apparatus6.1 Testing MachineA properly installed and operatedload actuator, ideally one which can be operated at constantr

25、ates of load or deflection, used in combination with a properlycalibrated load cell. Error in the load measuring system shallnot exceed 61 % of the maximum load expected to bemeasured. The test setup shall also be equipped with deflectionmeasuring devices. The stiffness of the testing apparatus shal

26、lbe such that the total elastic deformation of the load frame doesnot exceed 1 % of the total deflection of the test specimenduring testing, or appropriate corrections shall be made. Theaccuracy of the testing machine shall be calibrated and verifiedin accordance with Practices E4.6.2 Loading Noses

27、and Supports:6.2.1 The manufacturers deadend crossarm shall be eitherloaded through the center mount, or through the phase hard-ware. In the event of loading through the center mount, themanufacturers deadend crossarm shall be assembled with aproduction mount or fabricated replica. Load shall be app

28、liedthrough the back of the center mount bracket. The deadendcrossarm shall be fully fabricated, representing the finishedproduct, with the phase position deadend hardware attached.The crossarm test fixture supports shall connect directly to thephase position hardware.6.2.2 For deadend crossarm test

29、ing loaded through thephase hardware, and for tangent crossarm testing, the manu-facturers center mount shall be mounted to a rigid structurethat represents a pole structure in the proper orientation. Thecrossarm shall be loaded by pulling on the phase hardware inan appropriate direction for the tes

30、t method. For tangentcrossarm testing, this would be in an apparent vertical direc-tion. For deadend crossarm testing, this would be in anapparent horizontal direction.6.3 Deadend Crossarm Test Set UpThe test fixture shallallow for various lengths of crossarms to be tested. Thecrossarm length range

31、shall be dictated by typical industryofferings. The fixture shall permit the loading of the arm in oneof two ways: such that the load is applied through the centermount bracket, into the arm and resisted by the phase loadingeyenut hardware representing a two phase single sided deadendcrossarm fabric

32、ation, or such that the load is applied throughthe phase loading eye nut hardware representing two phasesingle sided deadend crossarm fabrication, into the arm, andresisted by the secured center mount bracket. The loadingconfiguration described is shown in Fig. 1.6.4 Tangent Crossarm Test Set UpThe

33、test fixture shallallow for various lengths of tangent crossarms to be tested. Thecrossarm length range shall be dictated by typical industryrequirements. The fixture shall permit the tangent bracket to besolidly mounted to a structural member that represents a pole.6.5 In absence of specific insula

34、tor hardware requirementsfor application, the tangent crossarm shall be loaded byapplying an apparent vertical force through two eyenuts, hoistD8019 152rings, or other securing hardware connected to the loadapparatus using a threaded rod or bolt at the appropriateconductor location, in a configurati

35、on which represents typicaltangent arm usage. The load path shall propagate from theeyenut or other securing hardware, through the threaded rod orbolt, to washers which span the entire width of the crossarm.The load shall then be distributed from the washer, through thecrossarm, where it is then dis

36、tributed to the tangent bracket andinto the mount. It is critical that the mount used in thecommercial sale of the tangent arm be used in the test, as thearm strength will be influenced by the hardware or centermount. The loading configuration described is shown in Fig. 2.6.6 Deflection Measuring De

37、viceA properly calibrateddevice to measure the deflection of the crossarms shall be used.The device shall automatically and continuously record thedeflection during the test. In the absence of an automated dataacquisition system, a properly calibrated deflection dial gaugeshall be used. A minimum of

38、 ten manual recordings shall betaken at approximately the same load increments throughoutthe duration of the test. The deflection dial gauge shall beaccurate to 60.001 in. 60.0254 mm.7. Sampling and Test Specimens7.1 SamplingA minimum of five specimens, per each testmethod described in 4.1 and 4.2,
