While the importa

3、nce of continued use of a satisfactorystandard should not be underestimated, the original standard (1927) was designed primarily for sawnmaterial, such as solid wood bridge stringers and joists. With the advent of laminated timbers,wood-plywood composite members, and even reinforced and prestressed

4、timbers, a procedureadaptable to a wider variety of wood structural members is required.The present standard expands the original standard to permit its application to wood members of alltypes. It provides methods of evaluation under loadings other than flexure in recognition of theincreasing need f

19、he flexuralproperties of structural beams made of solid or laminatedwood, or of composite constructions. This test method isintended primarily for beams of rectangular cross section but isalso applicable to beams of round and irregular shapes, such asround posts, I-beams, or other special sections.5

20、. Summary of Test Method5.1 The structural member, usually a straight or a slightlycambered beam of rectangular cross section, is subjected to abending moment by supporting it near its ends, at locationscalled reactions, and applying transverse loads symmetricallyimposed between these reactions. The

21、 beam is deflected at aprescribed rate, and coordinate observations of loads anddeflections are made until rupture occurs.6. Significance and Use6.1 The flexural properties established by this test methodprovide:6.1.1 Data for use in development of grading rules andspecifications;6.1.2 Data for use

22、in development of working stresses forstructural members;6.1.3 Data on the influence of imperfections on mechanicalproperties of structural members;6.1.4 Data on strength properties of different species orgrades in various structural sizes;6.1.5 Data for use in checking existing equations or hypoth-

23、eses relating to the structural behavior of beams;6.1.6 Data on the effects of chemical or environmentalconditions on mechanical properties;6.1.7 Data on effects of fabrication variables such as depth,taper, notches, or type of end joint in laminations; and6.1.8 Data on relationships between mechani

24、cal and physi-cal properties.6.2 Procedures are described here in sufficient detail topermit duplication in different laboratories so that comparisonsFIG. 1 Flexure Test MethodExample of Two-Point LoadingD198092of results from different sources will be valid. Special circum-stances may require devia

25、tion from some details of theseprocedures. Any variations shall be carefully described in thereport (see Section 11).7. Apparatus7.1 Testing MachineA device that provides (1) a rigidframe to support the specimen yet permit its deflection withoutrestraint, (2) a loading head through which the force i

26、s appliedwithout high-stress concentrations in the beam, and (3)aforce-measuring device that is calibrated to ensure accuracy inaccordance with Practices E4.7.2 Support ApparatusDevices that provide support of thespecimen at the specified span.7.2.1 Reaction Bearing PlatesThe beam shall be sup-porte

27、d by metal bearing plates to prevent damage to the beamat the point of contact between beam and reaction support (Fig.1). The plates shall be of sufficient length, thickness, and widthto provide a firm bearing surface and ensure a uniform bearingstress across the width of the beam.7.2.2 Reaction Sup

28、portsThe bearing plates shall be sup-ported by devices that provide unrestricted longitudinal defor-mation and rotation of the beam at the reactions due to loading.Provisions shall be made to restrict horizontal translation of thebeam (see 7.3.1 and Appendix X5).7.2.3 Reaction Bearing AlignmentProvi

29、sions shall bemade at the reaction supports to allow for initial twist in thelength of the beam. If the bearing surfaces of the beam at itsreactions are not parallel, the beam shall be shimmed or theindividual bearing plates shall be rotated about an axis parallelto the span to provide full bearing

30、across the width of thespecimen. Supports with lateral self-alignment are normallyused (Fig. 2).7.2.4 Lateral SupportSpecimens that have a depth-to-width ratio of three or greater are subject to lateral instabilityduring loading, thus requiring lateral support. Support shall beprovided at least at p

31、oints located about halfway between areaction and a load point. Additional supports may be used asrequired. Each support shall allow vertical movement withoutfrictional restraint but shall restrict lateral displacement (Fig.3).7.3 Load ApparatusDevices that transfer load from thetesting machine at d

32、esignated points on the specimen. Provi-sions shall be made to prevent eccentric loading of the loadmeasuring device (see Appendix X5).7.3.1 Load Bearing BlocksThe load shall be appliedthrough bearing blocks (Fig. 1), which are of sufficient thick-ness and extending entirely across the beam width to

33、 eliminatehigh-stress concentrations at places of contact between beamand bearing blocks. Load shall be applied to the blocks in sucha manner that the blocks may rotate about an axis perpendicu-lar to the span (Fig. 4). To prevent beam deflection withoutrestraint in case of two-point loading, metal

34、bearing plates androllers shall be used in conjunction with one or both load-bearing blocks, depending on the reaction support conditions(see Appendix X5). Provisions such as rotatable bearings orshims shall be made to ensure full contact between the beamand the loading blocks. The size and shape of

35、 these loadingblocks, plates, and rollers may vary with the size and shape ofthe beam, as well as for the reaction bearing plates andsupports. For rectangular beams, the loading surface of theblocks shall have a radius of curvature equal to two to fourtimes the beam depth. Beams having circular or i

36、rregularcross-sections shall have bearing blocks that distribute the loaduniformly to the bearing surface and permit unrestraineddeflections.7.3.2 Load PointsLocation of load points relative to thereactions depends on the purpose of testing (seeAppendix X5).7.3.2.1 Two-Point LoadingThe total load on

37、 the beamshall be applied equally at two points equidistant from thereactions. The two load points will normally be at a distancefrom their reaction equal to one third of the span (third-pointloading), but for special purposes other distances may bespecified.7.3.2.2 Center-Point LoadingIf required,

38、a single loadcan be applied at mid-span.7.3.2.3 For evaluation of shear properties, center-point load-ing or two-point loading shall be used (see Appendix X5).7.4 Deflection-Measuring Apparatus:7.4.1 GeneralFor modulus of elasticity calculations, de-vices shall be provided by which the deflection of

39、 the neutralaxis of the beam at the center of the span is measured withrespect to a straight line joining two reference points equidis-tant from the reactions and on the neutral axis of the beam.7.4.1.1 The apparent modulus of elasticity shall be calcu-lated using the full-span deflection. The refer

40、ence points for thefull-span deflection measurements shall be positioned such thata line perpendicular to the neutral axis at the location of thereference point, passes through the supports center of rotation.7.4.1.2 The true or shear-free modulus of elasticity shall becalculated using the shear-fre

41、e deflection. The reference pointsFIG. 2 Example of Bearing Plate (A), Rollers (B), and Reaction-Alignment-Rocker (C), for Small BeamsD198093for the shear-free deflection measurements shall be positionedat cross-sections free of shear and stress concentrations (seeAppendix X5).NOTE 1The apparent mod

42、ulus of elasticity may be corrected forshear-corrected MOE calculations, assuming that the shear modulus isknown. See Appendix X5.7.4.2 Wire DeflectometerDeflection may be read directlyby means of a wire stretched taut between two nails driven intothe neutral axis of the beam directly above the reac

43、tions andextending across a scale attached at the neutral axis of the beamat midspan. Deflections may be read with a telescope orreading glass to magnify the area where the wire crosses thescale. When a reading glass is used, a reflective surface placedadjacent to the scale will help to avoid parall

44、ax.7.4.3 Yoke DeflectometerA satisfactory device commonlyused for short, small beams or to measure deflection of thecenter of the beam with respect to any point along the neutralaxis consists of a lightweight U-shaped yoke suspendedbetween nails driven into the beam at its neutral axis and a dialmic

45、rometer attached to the center of the yoke with its stemattached to a nail driven into the beam at midspan at the neutralaxis. Further modification of this device may be attained byreplacing the dial micrometer with a deflection transducer forautomatic recording (Fig. 4).7.4.4 Alternative Deflectome

46、tersDeflectometers that donot conform to the general requirements of 7.4.1 are permittedprovided the mean deflection measurements are not signifi-cantly different from those devices conforming to 7.4.1. Theequivalency of such devices to deflectometers, such as thosedescribed in 7.4.2 or 7.4.3, shall

47、 be documented and demon-strated by comparison testing.NOTE 2Where possible, equivalency testing should be undertaken inthe same type of product and stiffness range for which the device will beused. Issues that should be considered in the equivalency testing includethe effect of crushing at and in t

48、he vicinity of the load and reaction points,twist in the specimen, and natural variation in properties within aspecimen.7.4.5 AccuracyThe devices and recording system shall besuch as to permit measuring changes in deflection to threesignificant figures. Since gauge lengths vary over a wide range,the

49、 measuring instruments should conform to their appropriateclass in accordance with Practice E83.NOTE 3A more accurate device may be required if the methodselected for computing the slope of the linear portion of the load-deflection response curve does not permit three or more significant figuresto be maintained in the calculations.8. Test Specimen8.1 MaterialThe test specimen shall consist of a structuralmember, which may be solid wood, laminated wood, or acomposite construction of wood or of wood combined withplastics or metals in sizes that are usua
