5、tion,the product specification shall prevail. In the case of a conflictbetween a requirement of the product specification or arequirement of this specification and a more stringent require-ment of the purchase order, the purchase order shall prevail.The purchase order requirements shall not take pre

6、cedence ifthey, in any way, violate the requirements of the productspecification or this specification; for example, by the waivingof a test requirement or by making a test requirement lessstringent.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as the stan

7、dard. Within the text,the inch-pound units are shown in brackets. The values statedin each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.

30、. Dimensions and Permissible Variations8.1 Dimensions:8.1.1 Straight cold-drawn wire (Type I) fibers are specifiedby diameter (d) or equivalent (de) and length (l), that establisha specified aspect ratio, (l), or (le), as (l / d)or(l / de).8.1.2 Deformed cold-drawn wire (Type I) fibers are speci-fie

31、d by the diameter (d) or equivalent diameter (de) andnominal length after bending (ln). Nominal aspect ratio (ln)isestablished as (ln/ d)or(ln/ de).8.1.3 Cut sheet (Type II) fibers are specified by thickness (t),width (w), and length (l). Aspect ratio (l) can be computed as:l5l / dewhere:A = tw, and

32、de= equivalent diameter =4A / p.8.1.4 Deformed cut sheet (Type II) fibers are specified bythickness (t), width (w), and nominal length after deformation(ln). Nominal aspect ratio (ln) can be computed as follows.l5ln/ dewhere:A = tw, andde= equivalent diameter =4A / p.8.1.5 Melt-extracted (Type III)

33、and mill-cut (Type IV) fibersare specified by equivalent diameter, (de), and length (l), ornominal length (ln). Equivalent diameter is computed frommeasured average nominal length and the mass weight of aA 820/A 820M 062known quantity of fibers, based upon 7 865 kg/m30.284lb/in.3 measured to the nea

34、rest 0.1 mg 2 x 10-6lb. Nominalaspect ratio, (ln), can be computed as follows:ln5 l / de, or 5 ln/ de8.1.6 Modified cold-drawn wire fibers (Type V) are spefi-cied by a range of equivalent diameters, (de-r), and length (l), ornominal length (ln). Equivalent diameter is computed as in8.1.5. A range of

35、 nominal apsect ratios, (ln-r) can be computedas follows:ln2r5 l / de2r, or 5 ln/ de2r.NOTE 3Specifying a specific diameter or equivalent diameter forType V fibers is not applicable as the diameters of many Type V fibersvary more than 6 10 % in each lot. Therefore a user should provide thelimits on

36、diameter or equivalent diameter allowable.8.2 Measurement of Dimensions:8.2.1 Measurement of dimensions shall be performed on notless than 10 randomly selected specimens for each test toestablish the average for conformance to specified tolerances.At least 90 % of the specimens in each test shall me

37、et thespecified tolerances for length, diameter or equivalent diam-eter, and aspect ratio.8.2.2 At least one test shall be performed for 4 500 kg 5tons of finished product.8.3 Permissible Variations:8.3.1 The length, or nominal length shall not vary from itsspecified value more than 610 %.8.3.2 The

38、diameter, equivalent diameter, or range of equiva-lent diameters shall not vary from its specified value more than610 %.8.3.3 The aspect ratio, nominal aspect ratio, or range ofaspect ratios shall not vary from its specified value more than615 %.9. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance9.1 Surface Cond

39、ition:9.1.1 Seams and surface irregularities shall not be cause forrejection provided that tensile properties are not less thanrequirements of this specification and mixing performance inconcrete is not adversely affected.9.1.2 Rust, mill scale, or other coatings shall not be causefor rejection prov

40、ided that the individual fibers separate whenmixed in concrete in accordance with Specification C 1116,and tensile and bending properties are not less than therequirements of this specification.10. Inspection10.1 Unless otherwise specified in the purchase order orcontract, the manufacturer is respon

41、sible for the performanceof all inspection and test requirements specified herein. Exceptas otherwise specified in the purchase order or contract, themanufacturer may use his own or any other suitable facility forthe performance of the inspection and test requirements speci-fied herein unless disapp

42、roved by the purchaser. The purchasershall have the right to perform any of the inspections and testsset forth in this specification where such inspections aredeemed necessary to ensure that material conforms to pre-scribed requirements.11. Rejection and Rehearing11.1 Rejection:11.1.1 If any test fa

43、ils to conform to the requirements of thisspecification, it shall be cause for rejection of the materialrepresented by the test. Material that is found to be defectivesubsequent to its acceptance at the manufacturers works maybe rejected, and the manufacturer notified.11.1.2 Rejection of fibers shal

44、l be reported to the manufac-turer promptly and in writing. Samples representing fibersrejected by the purchaser shall be preserved until disposition ofthe claim has been agreed to between the supplier and thepurchaser.11.2 RehearingWhen any test fails to meet the require-ments of tension, bending,

45、or dimensional tolerances, a retestshall be allowed. This retest shall be performed on twice thenumber of randomly selected specimens originally tested. Theresults of the retest shall meet the requirements of thisspecification or the lot shall be rejected.12. Certification12.1 Certificate of Complia
