Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method consists of
19、 subjecting a long beam ofsandwich construction to a bending moment normal to theplane of the sandwich, using a 4-point loading fixture. Deflec-tion and strain versus force measurements are recorded.4.2 The only acceptable failure modes for sandwichfacesheet strength are those which are internal to
20、one of thefacesheets. Failure of the sandwich core or the core-to-facesheet bond preceding failure of one of the facesheets is notan acceptable failure mode. Careful post-test inspection of thespecimen is required as facing failure occurring in proximity tothe loading points can be caused by local t
21、hrough-thicknesscompression or shear failure of the core that precedes failure ofthe facing.5. Significance and Use5.1 Flexure tests on flat sandwich construction may beconducted to determine the sandwich flexural stiffness, the coreshear strength, and shear modulus, or the facingscompressiveand ten
22、sile strengths. Tests to evaluate core shear strength mayalso be used to evaluate core-to-facing bonds.5.2 This test method is limited to obtaining the strength andstiffness of the sandwich panel facings, and to obtainingload-deflection data for use in calculating sandwich beamflexural and shear sti
23、ffness using Standard Practice D7250/D7250M. Due to the curvature of the flexural test specimenwhen loaded, facesheet compression strength from this testmay not be equivalent to the facesheet compression strength ofsandwich structures subjected to pure edgewise (in-plane)compression.5.3 Core shear s
24、trength and shear modulus are best deter-mined in accordance with Test Method C273 provided barecore material is available. Test Method C393 may also be usedto determine core shear strength. Standard Practice D7250/D7250M may be used to calculate the flexural and shearstiffness of sandwich beams.5.4
25、 This test method can be used to produce facing strengthdata for structural design allowables, material specifications,and research and development applications; it may also be usedas a quality control test for bonded sandwich panels.5.5 Factors that influence the facing strength and shalltherefore
26、be reported include the following: facing material,core material, adhesive material, methods of materialfabrication, facing stacking sequence and overall thickness,core geometry (cell size), core density, adhesive thickness,specimen geometry, specimen preparation, specimenconditioning, environment o
27、f testing, specimen alignment,loading procedure, speed of testing, facing void content,adhesive void content, and facing volume percent reinforce-ment. Further, facing strength may be different betweenprecured/bonded and co-cured facesheets of the same material.NOTE 2Concentrated forces on beams wit
28、h thin facings and lowdensity cores can produce results that are difficult to interpret, especiallyclose to the failure point. Wider loading blocks and rubber pressure padsmay assist in distributing the forces.NOTE 3To ensure that simple sandwich beam theory is valid, a goodrule of thumb for the fou
29、r-point bending test is the span length divided bythe sandwich thickness should be greater than 20 (L/d 20) with the ratioof facing thickness to core thickness less than 0.1 (t/c 0.1).6. Interferences6.1 Material and Specimen PreparationPoor material fab-rication practices and damage induced by impr
30、oper specimenmachining are known causes of high data scatter in compositesand sandwich structures in general. A specific material factorthat affects sandwich cores is variability in core density.Important aspects of sandwich core specimen preparation thatcontribute to data scatter include the existe
31、nce of joints, voidsor other core discontinuities, out-of-plane curvature, and sur-face roughness.6.2 GeometrySpecific geometric factors that affect sand-wich facing strength include facing thickness, core cellgeometry, and facing surface flatness (toolside or bagsidesurface in compression).6.3 Envi
32、ronmentResults are affected by the environmentalconditions under which specimens are conditioned, as well asthe conditions under which the tests are conducted. Specimenstested in various environments can exhibit significant differ-ences in both strength behavior and failure mode. Criticalenvironment
33、s must be assessed independently for each specificcombination of core material, facing material, and core-to-facing interfacial adhesive (if used) that is tested.6.4 Core MaterialIf the core material has insufficientshear or compressive strength, it is possible that the core maylocally crush at or n
34、ear the loading points thereby resulting infacesheet failure due to local stresses. In other cases, facingfailure can cause local core crushing. When there is both facingand core failure in the vicinity of one of the loading points itcan be difficult to determine the failure sequence in a post-morte
35、m inspection of the specimen as the failed specimenslook very similar for both sequences.D7249/D7249M 16127. Apparatus7.1 Micrometers and CalipersA micrometer having a flatanvil interface, or a caliper of suitable size, shall be used. Theinstrument(s) shall have an accuracy of 625 m 60.001 in.for th
36、ickness measurement, and an accuracy of 6250 m60.010 in. for length and width measurement.NOTE 4The accuracies given above are based on achieving measure-ments that are within 1 % of the sample length, width and thickness.7.2 Loading Fixtures7.2.1 Standard ConfigurationThe standard loading fixturesh
37、all consist of a 4-point loading configuration with twosupport bars that span the specimen width located below thespecimen, and two loading bars that span the specimen widthlocated on the top of the specimen (Fig. 1), The force shall beapplied vertically through the loading bars, with the supportbar
38、s fixed in place in the test machine. The standard loadingfixture shall have the centerlines of the support bars separatedby a distance of 560 mm 22.0 in. and the centerlines of theloading bars separated by a distance of 100 mm 4.0 in.7.2.2 Non-Standard ConfigurationsAll other loading fix-ture confi
39、gurations (see Fig. 2) are considered non-standardand details of the fixture geometry shall be documented in thetest report. Figs. 3-5 show typical test fixtures. Non-standard 3-and 4-point loading configurations have been retained withinthis standard a) for historical continuity with previous versi
40、onsof Test Method C393, b) because some sandwich panel designsrequire the use of non-standard loading configurations toachieve facesheet failure modes, and c) load-deflection datafrom non-standard configurations may be used with StandardPractice D7250/D7250M to obtain sandwich beam flexural andshear
41、 stiffnesses.7.2.3 Support and Loading BarsThe bars shall be de-signed to allow free rotation of the specimen at the loading andsupport points. The bars shall have sufficient stiffness to avoidsignificant deflection of the bars under load; any obviousbowing of the bars or any gaps occurring between
42、the bars andthe test specimen during loading shall be considered significantdeflection. The recommended configuration has a 25 mm 1.0in. wide flat steel loading block to contact the specimen(through rubber pressure pads) and is loaded via either acylindrical pivot (see Fig. 3) or a V-shaped bar ridi
43、ng in aV-groove in the top of the flat-bottomed steel loading pad. Thetips of the V-shaped loading bars shall have a minimum radiusof 3 mm 0.12 in. The V-groove in the loading pad shall havea radius larger than the loading bar tip and the angular openingof the groove shall be such that the sides of
44、the loading bars donot contact the sides of the V-groove during the test. Loadingbars consisting of 25 mm 1.0 in. diameter steel cylinders mayalso be used, but there is a greater risk of local specimencrushing with cylindrical bars. Also, the load and support spanlengths tend to increase as the spec
