2、ion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope Scope*1.1 This specification covers polyolefin-based plastic lumber products for use as exterior residential decking boards.1.2 Pla

3、stic lumber products are currently made predominantly with recycled polyolefin plastics (in particular high-densitypolyethylene) where the products are more or less non-homogenous in the cross-section. However, this specification is alsopotentially applicable to similar manufactured plastic products

4、 made from other plastic and plastic composite materials that havenon-homogenous cross-sections.1.3 This specification details a procedure to calculate recommended span lengths for spacing of support joists. This procedurewas developed using experimental data from a typical unreinforced plastic lumb

5、er made predominantly from recycled high-densitypolyethylene. The methodology to develop span lengths for other types and compositions of plastic lumber is detailed in AppendixX1 of this standard.1.4 The values are stated in inch-pound units, as these are currently the most common units used by the

6、construction industry.Equivalent SI units are indicated in parentheses. However, the units stated for irradiance exposure in the weatherability section(6.3) are in SI units as these are the units commonly used for testing of this type.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety c

7、oncerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatorylimitations prior to use.NOTE 1There is no similar or equivalent ISO Standard.2.

Dimensions and Permissible VariationsIt is permissible to produce decking boards either in sizes that are similar to the standard dimensions of

28、the wood industry, orto proprietary dimensions designed by manufacturers. This specification does not limit the dimensional range of production.For reference, the standards of the wood industry are as follows:5.1 ThicknessUnless otherwise specified in 4.1.8, boards shall be:Nominal (in.) Actual (in.

33、 Linear interpolation of the values is acceptable for dimensionsother than listed.5.7 Tongue and GrooveBoards shall be without tongue and groove unless otherwise specified in 4.1.8. Because of loadtransfer between adjacent boards, the methodology and equations presented in section 6.1.4 for determin

Manufacturers of tongue and groove decking boards shallprovide recommended span lengths based on sound engineering practice, taking into account some of the issues described in 6.1.4below, as well as previous, in-ser

35、vice performance history.6. Performance Requirements6.1 Flexural Properties:6.1.1 Test ProcedureD6109.6.1.2 Specimens TestedA minimum of 15 specimens shall be tested.6.1.3 Criteria(1) The mean value of the secant flexural modulus at 1 % outer fiber strain estimated statistically to within 5 %with 75

36、 % confidence shall equal or exceed 50 000 psi. Table 3 shows the number of specimens required to establish the meanvalue at 75 % confidence interval with 6 5 % error using Practice D2915. (2) The 5 % lower tolerance limit at 75 % confidenceflexural stress at 3 % outer fiber strain shall equal or ex

37、ceed 1000 psi. If any specimen fails prior to reaching 3 % strain, then theflexural strength at failure for that specimen shall equal or exceed 1000 psi. The 5 % lower tolerance limit at 75 % confidence iscomputed by subtracting K-times the standard deviation from the mean value, where K is tabulate

38、d in statistics handbooks (andin Table 3 of Practice D2915) as a factor for a one-sided tolerance limit for the distribution. Table 4 shows the value of K for severalsample sizes.NOTE 2Many standards require a minimum sample size of approximately 30 to balance testing costs against the large reducti

39、ons in the allowablevalues for very small sample sizes.NOTE 3A16 in. on center joist spacing is considered typical standard spacing for residential deck construction. While 50 000 psi is given as aminimum flexural modulus, a modulus greater than 50 000 psi is potentially required for some decking bo

40、ard sizes in order to meet this spacing whendetermining span lengths per the guidance presented in 6.1.4 below. Alternatively, use span lengths less than 16 in. on center as needed.NOTE 4Concurrent to the development of this specification for Plastic Lumber Decking, a Standard Guide for the Design a
