Scope1.1 These test methods cover only asbestos-cement flatsheets, roofing shingles, siding shingles, and clapboards.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; theref

4、ore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.3 WarningBreathing of asbestos dust is hazardous.Asbestos and asbestos products present demonstrated healthrisks for users and for those with whom they come

5、 into contact.In addition to other precautions, when working with asbestos-cement products, minimize the dust that results. For informa-tion on the safe use of chrysoltile asbestos, refer to “Safe Useof Chrysotile Asbestos: A Manual on Preventive and ControlMeasures.”21.4 This standard does not purp

It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Flexural Strength and Deflection Tests6.1 Significance and Use:6.1.1 Flexural StrengthThis is a routine test. The valuesrecorded are applicable only to the product being tested. Thebreaking loads specif

18、ied should be maintained or exceeded toensure successful use.6.1.2 DeflectionThis is not commonly a routine test, but isa reference or referee test. The values recorded are not relative,but are applicable only to the product being tested. The greaterthe deflection, provided the flexural strength is

19、satisfactory, thelower the breakage hazard will be in use. The limits chosen inthe material specifications are arbitrary, and are based uponexperience.6.2 Procedure:6.2.1 Dry each specimen to constant weight in a ventilatedoven at a temperature of 100 to 105C 212 to 220F, and coolto room temperature

20、 in a desiccator or desiccator-type cabinet.Record the dry weight of each cooled specimen. Determine theflexural strength of each specimen by placing the specimen onsupports that cannot exert longitudinal constraint rocker-typebearing edges or rollers witha3mm18-in. minimum and 13mm 12-in. maximum r

21、adius and applying the load equallyand simultaneously at both one-third points of the span throughsimilar edges, bearing against the finished surface of thespecimen. The test span shall be 254 6 1.6 mm 10 6116 in.,and the load lines and ups shall be parallel. Mount a dialmicrometer reading to 0.25 m

22、m 0.01 in., or an equallysensitive apparatus, to bear on the specimen at midspan, todetermine the deflection of the specimen at the center of thetest span. Increase the load applied at a uniform rate such aswill result in failure of the specimen in approximately 1 min.The error in the load reading s

23、hall not exceed 2.2 N 0.5 lbf forloads up to 200 N 50 lbf; for greater loads, the error shall notexceed 1 % of the maximum load.6.3 Calculation and ReportReport flexural strength anddeflection as required by the appropriate specification.6.4 Precision and Bias:6.4.1 Flexural Strength:6.4.1.1 Precisi

Water Absorption Test7.1 Significance and Use:7.1.1 This is a routine test. The values are relative. The testis ma

While there may be a relationship between waterabsorption and the ability of the product to resist deteriorationresulting from freezing and thawing, the material specificationva

27、lues have not been based upon such data.7.2 Water Absorption Determination:7.2.1 Submerge the specimens that have been used in theflexural strength test for 24 612 h in clean water at 60 to 80F15.5 to 26.5C.7.2.2 Remove each specimen from the water, wipe with adamp cloth, and weigh separately on a s

28、cale accurate to 0.5 %.7.2.3 Report the water absorption as the average value forall specimens tested. Calculate the water absorption value foreach specimen as follows:Water absorption, weight % 5 Ws2 Wd!/Wd# 3 100 (1)where:Ws= saturated weight of specimen, andWd= dry weight of specimen.7.3 Precisio

Dimensional Measurements8.1 Significance and Use:8.1.1 These are routine measurements for determiningwhether the length and width of the individual units are asordered, to ensure that they fit together properly in application,and to determine the uniformity of the specified thickness.

31、ining the thickness of siding shingles, many of whichhave a textured or granuled surface, a metal plate is placedadjacent to the textured surface, and the micrometer readingsare taken on the combined thickness of the shingle and themetal plate. The purpose is to obtain a more accurate overallthickne

32、ss measurement of the textured or granuled shingle.This would be rather difficult to do, in many cases, because ofsurface irregularities were the plate not used.TABLE 1 Sampling Plan for Flat SheetsNumber of Sheetsin ShipmentNumber of Sheetsto Be Selectedas SamplesA500 and under 3501 to 1000 51001 t
