Summary of Test Method4.1 The general purpose of this test method is to evaluatethe shear forces that can be carried by the web of a framed flooror roof diaphragm assembly by testing a simulation of theconstruction. The test method outlines basic pro
18、cedures for thestatic load testing of these constructions using simple beam orcantilever-type test specimens. Suggested specimen and testsetup details are provided, along with loading procedures,instrumentation, and evaluation methods.4.2 Construction:4.2.1 Diaphragm Performance AssumptionsThese dia
19、-phragm assemblies, assumed to act as plate girders, spanbetween shear walls, moment bents, or other constructions thatfurnish the end or intermediate supports to the system. Thechord members of the assembly perpendicular to the line ofapplied load act as the flanges of the girder, and the plate orp
20、anel elements act as the web.Aschematic drawing of a simplespan diaphragm is shown in Fig. 1.4.2.2 ConnectionsThe performance of the diaphragm isinfluenced by the type and spacing of the panel attachmentsand perimeter anchorage. It is necessary to ensure that the typeof connection system used and it
21、s application as nearly aspossible duplicate the system intended for use in the prototypestructure.4.3 DeformationsThe in-plane diaphragm deformation(s)shall be recorded. The total in-plane deformation of a dia-phragm consists of bending and shear deformation plus anyadditional deformation caused by
22、 distortion of the connectionsystem. Table 1 contains some useful deflection equations.5. Significance and Use5.1 Framed floor and roof systems are tested by this testmethod for static shear capacity. This test method will helpdetermine structural diaphragm properties needed for designpurposes.6. Ap
23、paratus6.1 Test Assembly:6.1.1 GeneralThe diaphragm test assembly consists of aframe or framing system on which the elements comprising theweb of the diaphragm are placed. The elements are fastened tothe frame in a manner equivalent to their attachment in thefield. The assembly may be tested horizon
24、tally or vertically.Either a cantilever or a simple span diaphragm assembly maybe used, with concentrated or distributed loading.6.1.2 Frame RequirementsThe frame is a part of the testassembly and shall consist of members of the same or similarmaterials as those intended for use in the prototype con
25、struc-tion. The test frame members shall be of equal or less strengththan those intended for use in the prototype construction. If thetest objective is to force failure to occur elsewhere in theassembly, make the test frame members stronger and note themodification in the test report. The frame shal
26、l be calibrated toestablish its load-deformation characteristics before attachingthe diaphragm elements. If the frame has a stiffness equal to orless than 2 % of the total diaphragm assembly, no adjustmentof test results for frame resistance need be made. However, ifFIG. 1 Schematic of Simple Span D
27、iaphragmE455 102the frame stiffness is greater than 2 % of the total assembly, thetest results shall be adjusted to compensate for frame resis-tance.6.1.2.1 Cantilever Frame (see Fig. 2)A pinned framereaction at corner (C) shall be provided to transfer thehorizontal force (P) through the diaphragm i
28、nto the supportsystem. The pin shall be located as close as possible to thediaphragm-to-frame contact plane to minimize warping of thediaphragm surface. A vertical reaction roller or rollers shall beprovided in the diaphragm plane at corner (H). The frame shallbe laterally supported at adjacent corn
29、ers (D) and (E) on rollersand at other locations as necessary to prevent displacement ofthe diaphragm from the plane of testing, but not to restrictin-plane displacements.6.1.2.2 Simple Span Frame (see Fig. 3)In-plane reactionsshall be provided at points (E) and (H) as shown to resist theapplied tes
30、t load or loads. The frame shall be supported withrollers at points (C), (D), (E), and (H), and under each loadingpoint. Hold-downs with rollers shall be provided to preventdisplacement of the specimen from the plane of testing but notto restrict in-plane displacements. The diaphragm can also besupp
31、orted by tension reactions at points (C) and (D) instead ofreactions shown at points (E) and (H)inFig. 3.6.1.3 Diaphragm Size:6.1.3.1 Cantilever DiaphragmThe diaphragm shall betested on a span length a, as shown in Fig. 2, equal to or greaterthan the typical support spacing likely to be used in theb

35、FIG. 2 Plan of a Cantilever Beam Diaphragm Test with a Concentrated LoadE455 103in either length or width; nor shall it contain less than fourelements if the diaphragm consists of individual elements. Thediaphragm shall contain typical end and side joints for theelements.NOTE 1When the web of the di
36、aphragm is made of individualelements, they might not be equally effective for the same span length iflaid perpendicular or parallel to the load direction.6.1.3.2 Simple Beam DiaphragmThe diaphragm lengthand depth shall be as shown in Fig. 3, where the dimensions aand b have the same connotation as
37、above with a minimumdimension in either case of 8 ft (2.4 m). The diaphragm shallcontain typical end and side joints for the elements.7. Safety Precautions7.1 Tests of this type can be dangerous. Equipment andfacilities must be designed with ample safety factors to ensurethat it is the specimen that
38、 fails and not the test apparatus orfacilities. Observers and sensitive instrumentation must be keptaway from diaphragms when loading to failure or in a loadrange where performance is unknown.8. Number of Tests8.1 A minimum of two specimens shall be tested to deter-mine the value of a given construc
39、tion. If the plan of thediaphragm is unsymmetrical, the second test shall be run withthe specimen orientation reversed with respect to the loadapplication used on the first specimen. If the tests do not agreewithin 10 % of the lower value, a third specimen shall be testedwith this specimen oriented
40、in the same manner as the weakerof the two previous tests. A mean value is computed from thelowest two values of the three tests.8.2 Duplicate tests may be waived when a series of tests arebeing made to simulate a range of variables.9. Procedure9.1 Determination of Frame StiffnessDetermine the frame
41、stiffness without the application of the web elements. Load theframe in a manner similar to that intended for the completeddiaphragm. If the frame is a “standard” frame, determine thestiffness of the frame. If calculations show that the framestiffness is less than 2 % of the total diaphragm assembly
42、, aseparate frame test is not required.9.2 Loading Procedure for Complete DiaphragmApplythe loads to the diaphragm in a manner duplicating, as far aspractical, the in-service loading conditions.NOTE 2Out-of-plane movement of the test shall be minimized. Anysuitable means that do not restrict in-plan
43、e movement of the diaphragmare acceptable. Possible ways are to apply the load as close as practical tothe shear center of the test assembly; along the loaded framing member,apply a vertical load to the end of the framing member at the opposite endfrom the load application, or apply a restraining de
44、vice (such as wheel orroller) to the frame. Any means used to restrain the vertical movementshall also be used when testing the bare frame.NOTE 1s Dial gage or other deflection measuring device.NOTE 2Lateral restraint devices are not shown, and should not restrict movement in the plane of the diaphr

Take at least ten sets ofuniformly spaced deformation readings prior to failure toestablish the load-deformation curve. The rate of loa
46、d applica-tion shall permit load and deformation readings to be recorded.Apply loads by hydraulic jacks that have been previouslycalibrated, or by other suitable types of loading apparatus. Takeaccount of the weight of the specimen and loading apparatus ifit is anticipated that the weights will affe
47、ct the results. Measuredeformations with dial gages or other suitable devices toestablish an adequate load-deformation curve. Measure defor-mations to the nearest 0.01 in. (0.2 mm). Load-measuringdevices shall be accurate to within 62 %. At load levels suchas approximately one third and two thirds o
48、f the estimatedultimate load, the load may be removed and the recovery of thediaphragm recorded after 5 min. Maintain a record of the totallength of time the diaphragm is under load.10.
