Terminology3.1 DefinitionsFor definitions of terms used in this test method, refer to Terminology D1079.4. Classes of Shingles4.1 Shingles are
8、of three classes:4.1.1 Class APass at a test velocity of 97 km/h (60 mph). 60 mph.4.1.2 Class DPass at a test velocity of 145 km/h (90 mph). 90 mph.4.1.3 Class FPass at a test velocity of 177 km/h (110 mph). 110 mph.5. Significance and Use5.1 Most asphalt shingles that have demonstrated wind resista
9、nce by this test have also performed well in use. Natural windconditions differ with respect to intensity, duration, and turbulence; these conditions are beyond the means of this test to simulate.The results of this test do not directly correlate to wind speeds experienced in service, and no accommo
10、dation is made in this testmethod for building height, building exposure category, or building importance factor.5.2 Many factors influence the wind resistance of shingles in the field; for example, temperature, time, roof slope, contaminationby dirt and debris, and fasteners that are misaligned or
11、under-driven. It is beyond the scope of this test method to address all ofthese influences. This test method is designed to evaluate the wind resistance of asphalt shingles as described in the scope whenrepresentative samples are applied to test panels in accordance with the manufacturers instructio
12、ns and conditioned as specifiedbefore testing.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D08 on Roofing and Waterproofing and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D08.02 on PreparedRoofings, Shingles and Siding Materials.Current edition approved Jan. 1, 2009.

Test Procedure9.1 Location of the Test PanelInstall the panel on the test carriage and accurately adjust it in relation to the duct so that theexposed edge of the target course will b
33、e on the same level as the lower edge of the duct orifice at a horizontal distance of 1786 1 mm (77 6116 in.).in. The target course shall be the third course up from the bottom of the panel. The test slope shall be2:12 (17 %) or the lowest slope recommended by the manufacturer for the product being
34、tested.9.1.1 Test a minimum of two panels for each product being tested.9.1.2 Since the design of lock-type shingle makes it difficult to determine the most critical angle of wind direction, conduct thetest at a minimum of three different angles using a separate panel for each test (head-on, with th
35、e bottom of the target courseparallel to and 178 mm (7 in.)7 in. away from the machine orifice; and with the panel rotated 30 and 60 from the head-onD3161/D3161M 122position, with the bottom corner of the third-course tab nearest the duct being 178 mm (7 in.)7 in. away from and in the samehorizontal
36、 plane as the bottom of the machine orifice). Test another panel at the position judged to be most critical on the basisof the first three tests.9.2 Performing the TestMaintain the ambient temperature at 24 6 3C (75 6 5F) during the tests.9.2.1As soon as the panel is set in position, start the fan,
37、adjust the speed to produce a velocity, as previously agreed betweenthe buyer and the seller, not less than 97 km/h (60 mph) and not greater than 177 km/h (110 mph). The test velocity shall not varymore than 65% at the orifice during the test, and shall be maintained continuously for 2 h, or until s
38、uch lesser time as a failureoccurs.9.2.2During the test, station an observer where any lifting of shingle tabs can be seen or noted. Any observable damage to a fullshingle or the disengaging of a locking ear or tab, or a shingle tab, including any failure of adhesive, with its time of occurrenceshal
39、l be recorded. The full assessment of damage, as required by Maintain the ambient temperature at 24 6 3C 75 6 5Fduring the tests.9.2.1 When the test panel is set in position, start the fan to produce the target test velocity, as established during calibration.The fan shall be operated continuously w
40、ithout adjustment for 2 h, or until such lesser time as a failure occurs.9.2.2 During the test, observations are to be made by an observer and/or by video and recorded when any lifting of shingle tabscan be seen or noted. Any observable damage to a full shingle or the disengaging of a locking ear or
41、 tab, or a shingle tab, includingany failure of adhesive, with its time of occurrence shall be recorded. The full assessment of damage, as required by 10.3, ispossible only after the cessation of the test.9.2.3 In the event that observable failure occurs during the test, stop the air flow and record
42、 the elapsed time. The observableend point for failure shall be taken asat the time of the observed failure or upon review of the video at the conclusion of the testin which any one or more full shingle tabs lift beyond upright (beyond perpendicular to the deck), or a locking ear or tab of a lockshi
43、ngle tears loose or disengages from its locking position.NOTE 1It is not prohibited to use this test method with different test velocities and different time intervals of stop-and-go frequencies to do researchon the performance of shingles in an unsealed condition. If this is done, shingles do not h
44、ave to be conditioned as specified in 8.2 before testing, andit is not prohibited to use different criteria for failure than those presented in 9.2.3. It is also not prohibited to interpret the results obtained in researchtesting of unsealed shingles differently than as described in 10.3.10. Interpr
45、etation of Results10.1 Any sealed shingle assembly that restrains full shingle tabs from lifting shall be considered as having passed this test.10.2 Any interlocked shingle assembly that restrains full shingle tabs from tearing loose, or disengaging from their lockedposition, shall be considered as
46、having passed this test.10.3 Any unsealed shingle assembly that restrains full shingle tabs from lifting beyond upright (beyond perpendicular to thedeck) during the test, and shows no permanent damage as a result of the test (such as by creasing, tearing, cracking, or splitting),and has its leading
