United States14.3 Apparatus:4.3.1 The testing machine shall be of any type of sufficientcapacity and shall be capable of providing the rate of loadingprescribed in 4.5.3.4.3.2 The testing machine shall be substantial an
15、d rigidthroughout, so that the distribution of the load will not beaffected appreciably by the deformation or yielding of any part.4.3.3 The three-edge-bearing method of loading shall beused. The test specimen shall be supported on a lower bearingof two parallel longitudinal strips and the load appl
16、ied throughan upper bearing (Figs. 1-4). At the option of the manufacturer,either or both the lower bearing and the upper bearing shallextend the full length or any portion of the length of thespecimen. Fig. 54.3.4 The lower bearings shall consist of wood or hardrubber strips. Wooden strips shall be
17、 straight, have a crosssection of not less than 2 in. in width and not less than 1 in. normore than 112 in. in height and shall have the top inside cornersrounded to a radius of12 in. Hard rubber strips shall have adurometer hardness of not less than 45 nor more than 60. Theyshall be rectangular in
18、cross section, having a width of not lessthan 2 in., a thickness of not less than 1 in. nor more than 112in., and shall have the top inside corner rounded to a radius of12 in.4.3.5 The lower bearing strips shall be fastened to a woodenor steel beam or directly to a concrete base, any of which shallp

The interior verticalsides of the strips shall be parallel and spaced a distance apartof not more than 1 in./ft of specimen diame

The bearing faces of the lower strips shall notvary from a straight line vertically or horizontally by more than132 in./ft of length under no load.4.3.6 The upper bearing shall be a rigid wood beam with orwithout an attached hard rubber strip. The wood shall be sou

It shall befastened to a steel or wood-faced steel beam of such dimen-sions that deflections under maximum load will not be greaterthan1720 of the specimen length. The bearing face of the upperbearing shall not deviate from a straight line by
22、more than132in./ft of length. When a hard rubber strip is used on the bearingface it shall have a durometer hardness of not less than 45 normore than 60, and shall have a width of not less than 2 in. anda thickness of not less than 1 in. nor more than 112 in. and shallbe secured to a wood beam meeti

The width of thefillet cap, upper or lo
24、wer, shall be not more than 1 in./ft of thespecimen diameter, but in no case less than 1 in.4.3.8 The equipment shall be so designed that the load willbe distributed about the center of the overall length (L1)ofthespecimen (Figs. 1-4). At the option of the manufacturer, thecenter of the load shall b

The load shall be applied either ata single point or at multiple points dependent on the length ofthe specimen being tested and the rigidity of the test frame.NOTE 1The user of these test methods is advised that multiple pointsof load
26、 appllications to the upper bearing will permit use of lighter beamswithout excessive deflection.4.4 CalibrationThe loading device shall be one whichshall provide an accuracy of 62 % at the specified test loads.A calibration curve shall be used. The machines used forperforming the three-edge-bearing
27、 tests shall be verified inaccordance with Practices E4.4.5 Procedure:4.5.1 Place the specimen on the two lower bearing strips insuch a manner that the pipe or tile rests firmly and with uniformbearing on each strip.4.5.2 Mark the two ends of the specimen at a point midwaybetween the lower bearing s
28、trips and then establish thediametrically opposite point on each end. Place the upperbearing so that it is aligned with these marks.4.5.3 For reinforced concrete pipe, any rate of load appli-cation up to a maximum of 7500 lbf/linear foot of pipe perminute shall be used up to 75 % of the specified de
29、signstrength, at which time the rate of loading shall be reduced toa maximum uniform rate of13 of the specified design strengthof the pipe per minute. This rate of loading shall be continuousuntil the specified acceptance design strength is reached. Ifboth the design strength and the ultimate streng
30、th are beingdetermined, a specified rate of loading need not be maintainedafter the acceptance design strength has been reached. Fornon-reinforced concrete pipe, any rate of load application up toa maximum of 7500 lbf/linear foot of pipe per minute shall beused up to 75 % of the specified ultimate s
31、trength, at whichtime the rate of loading shall be reduced to the maximumuniform rate of 3000 lbf/linear foot of pipe per minute. At themanufacturers option, the rates of loading in this paragraphshall be any rates that do not exceed the specified maximums.4.5.4 As defined in Terminology C822, the d
32、esign strengthis the maximum load, expressed as a D-load, supported by thepipe before a crack having a width of 0.01 in. occursthroughout a continuous length of 1 ft or more measuredparallel to the longitudinal axis of pipe barrel. The crack is 0.01in. in width when the point of the measuring gage w
33、ill, withoutforcing, penetrate116 in. at close intervals throughout thespecified distance of 1 ft. Measure the width of the crack bymeans of a gage made from a leaf 0.01 in. in thickness (as ina set of standard machinist gages), ground to a point of116 in.in width with corners rounded and with a tap
34、er of14 in./in. asshown in Fig. 6.NOTE 2As used in this specification, the 0.01-in. crack is a testcriterion for pipe under load in three-edge bearing test and is not intendedas an indication of overstressed or failed pipe under installed conditions.4.5.5 As defined in Terminology C822, the ultimate

The length used in calculating thestrength values shall be that indicated by L in Figs. 1-4. Forplain en
37、d pipe, no bell or spigot, the length L shall be theoverall length. For pipe having a bell or spigot on one end withthe opposite end being plain, L shall be the distance from theplain end to the center of the joint, where L equals the overalllength minus12 the depth of the bell, or the overall lengt

42、because the specimen is tested todestruction and exact duplicate specimen cannot be obtained.Therefore, no calculations of precision and bias are presentlycapable of being performed. Specifications that include this testmethod for the various types of concrete pipe should include aprovision for addi

44、.5.3 ConditioningThe moisture requirements of 1.3 are notrequired, at the option of the manufacturer.5.4 ProcedurePlace the section that has been designatedto receive the flat slab top on a firm, even surface.Assemble theflat slab top to this section. If a frame or riser has been designedto be fitte
45、d to the access portion of the flat slab top, assembleit to the slab top. Apply the test load to the riser or frame asassembled to the flat slab top. If no access opening has beenprovided to the flat slab top, apply the test load to the center ofthe flat slab top by means of a 12 by 12 by 4-in. wood
