Označení: | A micrometer with a 4 to 8 mm [0.16 to 0.32 in.] nominal diameter ball-interface or a flat anvil interface shall be used to measure the specimen thickness. A ball interface is recommended for thickness measurements when facings are bonded to the core and at least one surface is irregular (for example, the bag-side of a thin facing laminate that is neither smooth nor flat). A micrometer or caliper with a flat anvil interface is recommended for thickness measurements when facings are bonded to the core and both surfaces are smooth (for example, tooled surfaces). A micrometer or caliper with a flat anvil interface shall be used for measuring length and width, as well as the specimen thickness when no facings are present. The use of alternative measurement devices is permitted if specified (or agreed to) by the test requestor and reported by the testing laboratory. The accuracy of the instruments shall be suitable for reading to within 1 % of the sample dimensions. For typical specimen geometries, an instrument with an accuracy of ±0.025 mm [±0.001 in.] is adequate for the length, width, and thickness measurements.; core; honeycomb; sandwich; sandwich construction; shear modulus; shear strength ; |
1.1 This test method covers the determination of shear properties of sandwich construction core materials associated with shear distortion of planes parallel to the facings. It covers the determination of shear strength parallel to the plane of the sandwich, and the shear modulus associated with strains in a plane normal to the facings. The test may be conducted on core materials bonded directly to the loading plates or the sandwich facings bonded to the plates. Permissible core material forms include those with continuous bonding surfaces (such as balsa wood and foams) as well as those with discontinuous bonding surfaces (such as honeycomb).
1.2 Units—The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system are not necessarily exact equivalents; therefore, to ensure conformance with the standard, each system shall be used independently of the other, and values from the two systems shall not be combined.
1.2.1 Within the text, the inch-pound units are shown in brackets.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
