21、in this standard include Test MethodsE 1363, E 831 and E2113.8. Procedure8.1 With no specimen present, lower the probe so that itcontacts the specimen holder. Zero the device so that no force(load) is applied by the probe to the specimen holder.NOTE 6The means for determining “no load” condition is

22、specific tothe instrument used. The user of this method should check the InstrumentOperations Manual for this information.)8.2 Apply a Class 4 or better (that is, class 1, 2, 3 or 4) massstandard of 50 to 100 g to the probe. Record the (traceable)mass of the standard as M1in g.Apply a countering for

24、 purpose of this test method, it is assumed that therelationship between observed force (F2) and the actual force(F1) is linear and is governed by Eq 1:F15 F2 S (1)where:S = force calibration constant (nominal value of 1.00000).9.2 Calculate the force exerted by the standard mass in airusing Eq 2:F1

25、5 Maf (2)where:M = mass of the weight, g,a = standard acceleration due to gravity, (= 9.8065 m s-2),f = correction factor for local values of gravity and airbuoyancy taken from Table 1, dimensionless, andF1= force exerted by the standard mass, mN.9.3 Calculate the calibration constant (S) using the

The repeatabilityvalue estimates

34、the 95 % confidence limit. That is, two resultsfrom the same laboratory should be considered suspect (at the95 % confidence level) if they differ by more than the repeat-ability value.11.2.2 The within laboratory repeatability relative standarddeviation for the measurement of slope (S) was found to
