Annex A is informativePage 3 EN 1773 : 1996 BSI 1997 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determinati
20、on of length and width of textile fabrics that are in a tension-free relaxed state. The test is applicable to textile fabrics of full width, folded lengthwise down the middle, or in tubular form, but no longer than 100 m. This standard does not specify a method to determine or describe construction
21、defects or other defects. This standard is not applicable to coated fabrics. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.

23、dard atmospheres for conditioning and testing (ISO 139 : 1973) ISO 10012-1 Quality assurance requirements for measuring equipment Part 1: Metrological confirmation system for measuring equipment 3 Definitions For the purposes of this standard, the following definitions apply. 3.1 length of piece The
24、 distance between the beginning and the end of the sample in the lengthwise or machine direction. 3.2 overall width of piece The distance between the outermost edges of the sample measured perpendicular to the longitudinal edges. 3.3 usable width of piece The width of the fabric excluding any selved
25、ge materials, marks, pin-holes or other non-homogeneous areas of the fabric. NOTE. For some end uses or specifications the usable width may be defined differently, as agreed between the interested parties. 4 Principle A sample of textile fabric, conditioned in the relaxed state in the standard atmos
26、phere for testing, is laid out on a smooth surface. A calibrated rule is used to determine the length and the width of the piece. For determination of the length of a sample it may be necessary to measure partial lengths. The total length of the sample then results from the sum of length of these pa
27、rtial lengths. 5 Sampling Samples shall be selected either in accordance with the procedure laid down in the material specification for the fabric or as agreed between the interested parties. 6 Apparatus 6.1 Calibrated rule, conforming to ISO 10012-1, and having a length greater than the width of th
28、e fabric, graduated in millimetres. 6.2 Measuring table having a smooth flat surface and a width and length greater than the fabric when placed for measuring. The table shall be at least 3 m in length to allow measuring of samples with a length greater than 2 m. Along the two longest parallel sides
29、of the table consecutive markers are placed at distances of 1 m 1 mm. The distance of the first marker from the nearest end of the table shall be 0,5 m to allow proper positioning of the sample. For long pieces to be measured in partial lengths the whole piece shall be placed on the table during the
30、 measurement of the individual length intervals (see annex A). 7 Atmosphere for conditioning, testing and relaxation The atmospheres for preconditioning, conditioning and testing shall be as specified in EN 20139. The fabric shall be conditioned and measured in the relaxed state. To ensure the relax
31、ed state, the sample shall be laid out, free of tension, either in its full width, folded down the middle along the length of fabric, or tubular, depending on the make up of the sample. NOTE. An illustration of handling of fabrics of great length is given in annex A. To ensure if the relaxed state i
32、s reached, place preliminary markers at two intervals along the fabric. The sample shall be considered adequately relaxed if the difference between length measurements at time intervals of 24 h is less than 0,25 %. If knitted fabrics are to be tested not as received but after special treatment this
33、shall be agreed by the interested parties and shall be stated in the test report. 8 Procedure 8.1 General The sample shall be laid out flat on the surface of the measuring table. The test shall be performed on the fabric as made up in full width or folded down the middle along the length of the fabr
34、ic or in tubular form. Avoid distortion of the fabric in its own plane.Page 4 EN 1773 : 1996 BSI 1997 8.2 Measuring the length of the sample 8.2.1 Samples shorter than 1 m Samples having a length of less than 1 m shall be measured by placing the rule (see 6.1) parallel to the longitudinal edges to t
35、he nearest millimetre. Repeat the procedure of measuring the full length of the sample three times at different places across the width of the fabric. 8.2.2 Samples longer than 1 m Mark the fabric at the edges. Place second markers at a distance of 1 m using the markers on the table as stated in 6.2
36、. Mark the entire sample in consecutive increments of 1 m. The residual length of less than 1 m is measured using the calibrated rule described in 6.1. The total length of the sample is the sum of the 1 m increments plus the residual length. Repeat the procedure three times with new marker strokes b
37、eing placed on the sample if necessary. The interested parties shall agree in advance whether the connecting strips at the beginning and the end of the sample are to be included in the length measurement. 8.3 Measuring the width of the sample The width of fabrics made up full width is the distance b
38、etween the outermost edges measured perpendicular to the edges. The width of a fabric folded vertical down the middle is double the distance from the folded edge to the congruently superimposed outer edges, measured perpendicular to the folded edge. If the outer edges are not superimposed congruentl
39、y, the measurement shall be made from the folded edge to the edge nearest to it. This shall be stated in the test report. The width of a fabric in tubular form is the distance from edge to edge measured perpendicular to the edges when the sample is positioned properly and the edges are kept flat. Me
40、asure the width of the sample distributed uniformly over the entire length of the sample. For: sample length up to 5 m: 5 determinations; sample length up to 20 m: 10 determinations; sample length greater than 20 m: at least 10 determinations at distances of 2 m. If the width of the fabrics is not t
41、o be measured as the overall width from edge to edge then the parties interested in the result shall agree on the definition of the usable width. This shall be stated in the test report. If the usable width is to be measured, then the measurements shall be made according to the overall width, but av
42、oiding any selvedge etc. described in 3.3. The usable width may be defined differently because of variations in weaving construction or because of special requirements for the manufacturing of garments or other made-up products. 9 Calculation and expression of results 9.1 Length of piece Calculate t
43、he arithmetic mean of the length of the sample in metre to the nearest centimetre. If required, calculate the coefficient of variation in percent to the nearest 1 % and the 95 % confidence limits to the nearest centimetre, or state the results of the individual measurements in metre to the nearest c
44、entimetre. 9.2 Width of piece Calculate the arithmetic mean of the width of the sample in metres to the nearest centimetre and, if required, the coefficient of variation in percent to the nearest 1 % and the 95 % confidence limits to the nearest centimetre. 10 Test report The test report shall inclu

49、ditioning, relaxing and measurement A convenient and effective method of arranging a long piece of fabric for conditioning so that it is free from applied tension and is well exposed to the conditioning atmosphere is to unroll the piece and lay it in loose corrugated folds of suitable size. (See figure A.1.) During marking and measuring, it is essential that the piece of fabric whose width is being determined should be free from tension as it lies on the measuring table. To achieve this, it has been found convenient to cuttle-fold (se
