3、stiffness properties of polymer matrix composite materialsusing a combined loading compression (CLC) (1)2test fixture.This test method is applicable to general composites that arebalanced and symmetric. The specimen may be untabbed(Procedure A) or tabbed (Procedure B), as required. Onerequirement fo

4、r a successful test is that the specimen ends donot crush during the test. Untabbed specimens are usuallysuitable for use with materials of low orthotropy, for example,fabrics, chopped fiber composites, and laminates with a maxi-mum of 50 % 0 plies, or equivalent (see 6.4). Materials ofhigher orthot

In comparison, TestMethod D3410/D3410M is a pure shear-loading compressiontest method and Test Method D695 is a pure end-loading testmethod.

Summary of Test Method4.1 A test fixture such

22、as that shown in Figs. 1 and 2,oranycomparable fixture, can be used to test the untabbed (ProcedureA) or tabbed (Procedure B) straight-sided composite specimenof rectangular cross section shown schematically in Fig. 3.Atypical specimen is 140 mm 5.5 in. long and 13 mm 0.5 in.wide, having an unsuppor

23、ted (gage) length of 13 mm 0.5 in.when installed in the fixture. A gage length greater or less than13 mm is acceptable, subject to specimen buckling consider-ations (see 8.2). The 13-mm 0.5 in. gage length providessufficient space to install bonded strain gages when they arerequired. The fixture, wh

24、ich subjects the specimen to combinedend- and shear-loading, is itself loaded in compression betweenflat platens in a universal testing machine. Load-strain data arecollected until failure occurs (or until a specified strain level isachieved if only compressive modulus or Poissons ratio, orboth, are

25、 to be determined, and not the complete stress-straincurve to failure).5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is designed to produce compressiveproperty data for material specifications, research anddevelopment, quality assurance, and structural design andanalysis. When tabbed (Procedure B) spe

27、CLC test method(combined shear end loading) has similarities to Test MethodsD3410/D3410M (shear loading) and D695 (end loading).When testing lower strength materials such that untabbed CLCspecimens can be used (ProcedureA), the benefits of combinedloading become particularly prominent. It may not be

28、 possibleto successfully test untabbed specimens of these same materi-als using either of the other two methods. When specificlaminates are tested (primarily of the 90/0nsfamily, althoughother laminates containing at least one 0 ply can be used), theCLC data are frequently used to “back out” 0 ply s

29、trength,using lamination theory to calculate a 0 unidirectional laminastrength (1, 2). Factors that influence the compressive responseinclude: type of material, methods of material preparation andlay-up, specimen stacking sequence, specimen preparation,specimen conditioning, environment of testing,

30、speed oftesting, time at temperature, void content, and volume percentreinforcement. Composite properties in the test direction thatmay be obtained from this test method include:5.1.1 Ultimate compressive strength,5.1.2 Ultimate compressive strain,5.1.3 Compressive (linear or chord) modulus of elast

31、icity,and5.1.4 Poissons ratio in compression.6. Interferences6.1 Because of partial end loading of the specimen in thistest method, it is important that the ends of the specimen bemachined flat, parallel to each other, and perpendicular to thelong axis of the coupon (see Fig. 3), just as for Test Me

32、thodD695. Improper preparation may result in premature endcrushing of the specimen during loading, excessive inducedbending, or buckling, potentially invalidating the test.6.2 Erroneously low laminate compressive strengths will beproduced as a result of Euler column buckling if the specimenis too th

33、in in relation to the gage length (see 8.2). In such cases,the specimen thickness must be increased or the gage lengthreduced. A practical limit on reducing gage length is maintain-ing adequate space in which to attach strain gages, if required.A gage length of at least about 9 mm 0.35 in. is typica

34、llyrequired for this purpose. Bending or buckling, or both, canusually only be detected by the use of back-to-back straingages mounted on the faces of the specimen (3). Bending andbuckling are not visually obvious during the test, or from anexamination of the specimen failure mode.Note: Using standa

35、rd M61 (14-28 UNF) screws, the bolt torque required to test most composite material specimens successfully is typically between 2.5 and 3.0 N-m20 and 25 in.-lb.FIG. 2 Dimensioned Sketch of a Typical Combined Loading Compression (CLC) Test FixtureD6641/D6641M 1436.3 For a valid test, final failure of

36、 the specimen must occurwithin the gage section. Which failure modes are deemedacceptable will be governed by the particular material,configuration, and application (see 12.1).6.4 Untabbed (Procedure A) specimens of continuous-fiber-reinforced laminates having more than 50 % axially oriented(0) plie

37、s may require higher than acceptable fixture clampingforces to prevent end crushing. Excessive clamping forcesinduce at the ends of the gage section local stress concentra-tions that may produce erroneously low strength results (see11.2.7). In such cases, the specimen must be tabbed (ProcedureB).6.5

38、 If the outermost plies of a laminate are oriented at 0,the local stress concentrations at the ends of the specimen gagesection may lead to premature failure of these primary load-bearing plies, producing erroneously low laminate strengthresults. This is particularly true for specimens with lownumbe

39、rs of plies, since then the outer plies represent asignificant fraction of the total number of plies (1).6.6 The compressive strength and stiffness properties ofunidirectional composites as well as all laminate configurationsmay be determined using this test method, subject to somelimitations (1). O

40、ne limitation is that the fixture clampingforces induced by the applied bolt torques required to success-fully fail the composite before specimen end crushing must notinduce significant stress concentrations at the ends of the gagesection (4). Such stress concentrations will degrade the mea-sured co

41、mpressive strength. For example, testing an untabbedhigh-strength unidirectional composite is likely to be unsuc-cessful because of the excessive clamping forces required toprevent specimen end crushing, whereas a lower strengthunidirectional composite may be successfully tested usingacceptable clam

42、ping forces. The use of a tabbed specimen toincrease the bearing area at the specimen ends is then necesary(1, 5). An untabbed thickness-tapered specimen, althoughnonstandard, has also been used to successfully test high-strength unidirectional composites (5).6.7 In multidirectional laminates, edge

43、effects can affect themeasured strength and modulus of the laminate.7.
