29、nded.5.2 Surface preparation of test specimens, although nor-mally not considered a major concern in CFCCs, can introducefabrication flaws that may have pronounced effects on com-pressive mechanical properties and behavior (for example,shape and level of the resulting stress-strain curve, compres-si
30、ve strength and strain, proportional limit stress and strain,etc.). Machining damage introduced during test specimenpreparation can be either a random interfering factor in thedetermination of ultimate strength of pristine material (that is,increased frequency of surface-initiated fractures compared
31、 tovolume-initiated fractures), or an inherent part of the strengthcharacteristics to be measured. Surface preparation can alsolead to the introduction of residual stresses. Universal orstandardized test methods of surface preparation do not exist.In addition, the nature of fabrication used for cert
32、ain compos-ites (for example, chemical vapor infiltration or hot pressing)may require the testing of test specimens in the as-processedcondition (that is, it may not be possible to machine the testspecimen faces without compromising the in-plane fiber archi-tecture). Final machining steps may or may
33、 not negate machin-ing damage introduced during the initial machining. Thus,report test specimen fabrication history since it may play animportant role in the measured strength distributions.5.3 Bending in uniaxial compressive tests can introduceeccentricity, leading to geometric instability of the
34、test speci-men and buckling failure before true compressive strength isattained. In addition, if deformations or strains are measured atsurfaces where maximum or minimum stresses occur, bendingmay introduce over or under measurement of strains, depend-ing on the location of the strain measuring devi
35、ce on the testspecimen. Bending can be introduced from, among othersources, initial load train misalignment, misaligned test speci-mens as installed in the grips, warped test specimens, or loadtrain misalignment introduced during testing due to low lateralmachine/grip stiffness.5.4 Fractures that in
36、itiate outside the uniformly stressedgage section of a test specimen may be due to factors such asstress concentrations or geometrical transitions, extraneousstresses introduced by gripping, or strength-limiting features inthe microstructure of the test specimen. Such non-gage sectionfractures will
37、normally constitute invalid tests. In addition, forfrictional face-loaded geometrics, gripping pressure is a keyvariable in the initiation of fracture. Insufficient pressure canshear the outer plies in laminated CFCCs, while too muchpressure can cause local crushing of the CFCC and may initiatefract
38、ure in the vicinity of the grips.5.5 Lateral supports are sometimes used in compressiontests to reduce the tendency of test specimen buckling.However, such lateral supports may introduce sufficient fric-tional stress so as to artificially increase the force required toproduce compressive failure. In
39、 addition, the lateral supportsand attendant frictional stresses may invalidate the assumptionof uniaxial stress state. When lateral supports are used, thefrictional effect should be quantified to ensure that its contri-bution is small, and the means for doing so reported along withthe quantity of t
40、he frictional effect.6. Apparatus6.1 Testing MachinesMachines used for compressive test-ing shall conform to Practices E4. The forces used in deter-mining compressive strength shall be accurate to within 61%at any force within the selected force range of the testingmachine as defined in Practices E4

A schematic showingpertinent features of one possible compressive testing appara-tus is shown in Fig. 1.6.2 Gripping Devices:6.2.1 GeneralVarious types of gripping devices may beused to transmit the measured force applied by the testingmachine to the test specimens. The brittle nature of thematric
42、es of CFCCs requires a uniform interface between theFIG. 1 Schematic Diagram of One Possible Apparatus for Con-ducting a Uniaxially Loaded Compression TestC1358 183grip components and the gripped section of the test specimen.Line or point contacts and nonuniform pressure can produceHertzian-type str
43、esses, leading to crack initiation and fractureof the test specimen in the gripped section.6.2.1.1 The primary recommended gripping system forcompressive testing CFCCs employs active grip interfaces thatrequire a continuous application of a mechanical, hydraulic, orpneumatic force to transmit the fo
44、rce applied by the testmachine to the test specimen. These types of grip interfaces(that is, frictional face-loaded grips) cause a force to be appliednormal to the surface of the gripped section of the testspecimen. Transmission of the uniaxial force applied by thetest machine is then accomplished b
45、y friction between the testspecimen and the grip faces. Thus, important aspects of activegrip interfaces are uniform contact between the gripped sectionof the test specimen and the grip faces and constant coefficientof friction over the grip/specimen interface.6.2.1.2 For flat test specimens, fricti
46、onal face-loaded grips,either by direct lateral pressure grip faces (1)3or by indirectwedge-type grip faces, act as the grip interface (2, 3) asillustrated in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, respectively. Generally, closetolerances are required for the flatness and parallelism as wellas for the wedge angle of th
47、e wedge grip faces. In addition, thethickness, flatness, and parallelism of the gripped section of thetest specimen must be within similarly close tolerances topromote uniform contact at the test specimen/grip interface.Tolerances will vary depending on the exact configuration asshown in the appropr
48、iate test specimen drawings.6.2.1.3 Sufficient lateral pressure must be applied to preventslippage between the grip face and the test specimen. Gripsurfaces that are scored or serrated with a pattern similar to thatof a single-cut file have been found satisfactory. A fineserration appears to be the
49、most satisfactory. Keep the serra-tions clean and well defined but not overly sharp. The lengthand width of the grip faces shall be equal to or greater than therespective length and width of the gripped sections of the testspecimen.6.2.1.4 An alternative recommended gripping system forcompressive testing CFCCs employs passive grip interfacesthat employ lateral supports and loading anvils to transmit theapplied force to the compressive test specimen. The lateralsupports prevent both buckling of the test specimen in the gagesection and splitting and
