This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identi

13、cal text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2013, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2013. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be he

14、ld responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 1608:1996. The revision of this standard contains no major changes, only minor corrections and clarifications of an editorial nature. This European Standard is one of a series of standards which specify test me

15、thods for determining dimensions and properties of thermal insulating materials and products. It supports a series of product standards for thermal insulating materials and products which derive from the Council Directive of 21 December 1988 on the approximation of laws, regulations and administrati

16、ve provisions of the Member States relating to construction products (Directive 89/106/EEC) through the consideration of the essential requirements. This European Standard has been drafted for applications in building, but it may also be used in other areas where it is relevant. This European test s

BS EN 1608:2013EN 1608:2013 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the equipment and procedures for determining the tensile strength of a product parallel to its faces. It is applicable to thermal insulating products. This European Standard

30、can be used to determine whether the product has sufficient strength to withstand stresses during transportation and application. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

34、on, divided by the cross-sectional testing area of the test specimen 4 Principle A test specimen is attached to two clamps which are fastened in a tensile testing machine and pulled apart at a given speed. The maximum tensile force is recorded and the tensile strength of the test specimen is calcula

35、ted. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Tensile testing machine, appropriate for the range of force and displacement involved, capable of having a constant crosshead speed adjusted to (10 1) mm/min and capable of measuring the force to an accuracy of 1 %. 5.2 Two clamps, designed so as to avoid failure of the test spe

36、cimen in the area of the clamps. The clamps shall be positioned so that the tensile stress is uniformly distributed during the test. BS EN 1608:2013EN 1608:2013 (E) 6 An example of suitable equipment is shown in Figure 1. Any test equipment or method which provides the same result with at least the

37、same accuracy may be used. 6 Test specimens 6.1 Dimensions of test specimens The thickness of the test specimens shall be the original product thickness including any skins, facings, and/or coatings. The test specimens shall be cut with the shape and with the dimensions shown in Figure 2. For small

38、products or because of equipment limitations, the test specimen length and width shall be adjusted proportionally, but with a minimum length of 500 mm. Other specimen shapes which provide the same result to at least the same accuracy may be used. 6.2 Number of test specimens The number of test speci

39、mens shall be as specified in the relevant product standard. If the number is not specified, then at least three test specimens shall be used. In the absence of a product standard or any other European Technical Specification, the number of test specimens may be agreed between parties. Figure 1 Exam

40、ple of suitable clamps 6.3 Preparation of test specimens The test specimens shall be cut from the full size product so that the length direction corresponds to the direction in which the tensile force is applied to the product in its application. BS EN 1608:2013EN 1608:2013 (E) 7 Test specimens shal

41、l be prepared by methods that do not change the original structure of the product. Special methods of preparation, when needed, are given in the relevant product standard or any other European Technical Specification. 6.4 Conditioning of test specimens The test specimens shall be conditioned for at

42、least 6 h at (23 5) C. In case of dispute, they shall be conditioned at (23 2) C and (50 5) % relative humidity for the time stated in the relevant product standard. 7 Procedure 7.1 Test conditions Testing shall be carried out at (23 5) C. In case of dispute, it shall be carried out at (23 2) C and

43、(50 5) % relative humidity. 7.2 Test procedure Measure the thickness of the testing area, d, to the nearest millimetre, in accordance with EN 823. Measure the length of the test specimen, l, and the width of the testing area, b, to the nearest millimetre, in accordance with EN 12085. Attach the test

44、 specimen centrally between two clamps to distribute the stress uniformly. Place it carefully in the tensile testing machine and increase the tensile force with a constant speed of the crosshead (see 5.1) until failure occurs. Record the maximum tensile force, in kilonewtons. Note the way in which t

45、he product failed. Discard any test specimens that failed outside the testing area (see Figure 2).

46、strength parallel to faces, t, in kilopascals, using the formula: bdF=m (1) where Fmis the maximum tensile force recorded, in kilonewtons; d is the thickness of the testing area, in metres; b is the width of the testing area, in metres. The result shall be expressed as the mean value from the measur

47、ements, to two significant figures. 9 Accuracy of measurement Following the experience of a “round robin test”, where comparable test equipment and test specimen preparation were used, the accuracy for tensile strength, t, can be estimated as given below. 95 % repeatability limit: approximately 3 %;
