Summary of Test Method4.1 The test is conducted by applying a controlled, near

21、lyinstantaneous, load to the longitudinally cut edges of curvedbeam sections cut from short lengths of pipe until a prescribedshortening of the chord connecting the longitudinal edges isachieved and held constant for prescribed intervals. Load anddeformation data establish the time-independent measu

22、re ofcurved beam wall stiffness at the instant of load application, themeasure of efficiency of the profile wall geometry, stability ofthe profile wall, a modulus of relaxation and long-termestimates of residual pipe wall stiffness.4.2 Alength of a 10 to 120 arc segment of a pipe wall, fromone diame

23、ter length to one meter long is loaded across its chordlength between two freely rotating end plates at a controlledrate of approach to one another. Load-deflection data of thewall section in combined bending and compression are ob-tained. Change in pipe wall thickness at the center of thesection (s

24、pringline) is determined. If cracking, crazing, delami-nation, rupture, or buckling occurs, the corresponding load,deflection, and/or time are recorded.NOTE 2If this test method is incorporated in a product standard itwould be necessary to define the arc length to be tested. There are,however, many

25、reasons various arc lengths might be tested, especially asa research or product development tool. Large arc lengths are primarily inbending, while short arc lengths are primarily in compression.5.
