25、ure by a tensile force parallel to the grain. 7 Apparatus a) Conditioning room capable of ensuring to the test pieces the temperature at (23 2) C and (50 5) % relative humidity or (20 2) C and (65 5) %. b) Notched trowel suitable to apply on the surface of the boards the required adhesive amount. c)
26、 The testing machine shall be a constant-rate-of-traverse machine as described in ISO 5893. The machine shall be capable to apply a rate of 50 mm/min. The machine shall apply a force of at least 5 kN 2%. d) The jaws shall grip the test pieces with a wedge action and permit self alignment whilst the
27、test pieces are being pulled. e) Apparatus suitable to obtain individual test pieces from the boards coupled as reported in 8.2, for example a circular saw fitted with blade having a thickness of cut of about 2,5 mm. f) Press suitable to glue two boards (8.1) as indicated in 8.2 with the required pr
28、essure. 8 Procedure 8.1 General Cut two panels (see Figure 1) from a thick unsteamed, conditioned, straight-grained board of beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) with a density of (700 50) kg/m3when the moisture content is (12 1) %. Ensure that the angle between the growth rings and the surface to be bonded i
29、s between 30 and 90. Condition the boards for at least 7 days in 7 a) conditions. The adhesive shall be conditioned for at least 24 h. Not more than 24 h before bonding, either lightly plane or lightly sand each surface to be bonded (using an abrasive paper of grain size P100 complying with ISO 6344
30、-2 is recommended). Remove any dust carefully. Do not touch or soil the prepared surfaces. 8.2 Preparation of test pieces All the adhesive application procedures shall be carried out in the standard atmosphere (see 7a). Assembly instructions: The adhesive application shall be on one adherend only. T
31、he adhesive spread shall be (150 10) g/m2. The distribution of the adhesive shall be uniformly done over the whole surface of the board. Immediately after the adhesive application has been completed, the measurement of the open time shall start. The closed assembly time shall be (180 30) s. The pres
32、sing pressure shall be (0,8 0,1) N/mm2. BS EN 16556:2014EN 16556:2014 (E) 6 The pressing time shall be a minimum of 2 h. Assemble the boards at increasing open times (see note) or according to the manufacturers instructions (range of the maximum open time to be tested and the interval). NOTE e.g. 0-
33、3-6-9-12 min. The glued boards shall be conditioned for 7 days in standard atmosphere (see 7a). Cut five strips of width b = (20 0,2) mm from each bonded assembly along the grain, avoiding areas within 7,5 mm of the outside long edges of the panel as shown in Figure 1. Cut these strips into test pie
34、ces of length l1= (150 5) mm as shown in Figure 2. Make flat bottomed cuts of (2,5 0,5) mm wide in the bonded sections across the grain so that an overlap of length l2= (10,0 0,2) mm is defined in the middle section (see Figure 2). The cuts are to separate the wood layers. Take care that the cuts co
35、mpletely cut through the bond line but only penetrate as little as possible into the other part of the joint. For a screening test only (e.g. to determine a rough value of the open time), single lap joint specimens (e.g: see EN 205:2003, Annex A), may be used. 8.3 Number of test pieces Test a suffic
36、ient number of test pieces to provide 10 valid results for each of the open times selected. Results from tests in which failure occurred in the wood (100 % of wood failure) at values 10 N/mm2shall be invalid. 8.4 Tensile shear test Test the test pieces shown in Figure 2 in the tensile testing machin
37、e (see 7 c). Clamp the ends of the test pieces in the jaws of the tensile testing machine up to a length of 40 mm to 50 mm. Ensure that the force is applied centrally and in the plane of the bond. Load the test piece until rupture. Record the applied maximum force Fmaxin Newton (N). BS EN 16556:2014
