4、stoffprfmaschinen of the Normenaus-schuss Materialprfung (Materials Testing Standards Committee). Appendix A of DIN EN 12390-4 deals witha strain cylinder*) test to be carried out using compression testing machines, leaving users the option ofusing alternative methods of testing. Because DIN EN 1239
5、0-4 does not describe the strain cylinder testprocedure in sufficient detail, it was decided to deal with the method in a revised edition of DIN 51302-2.AmendmentsThis standard differs from the August 1986 edition in that references have been updated and the standardhas been editorially revised.Prev
6、ious editionDIN 51320-2: 1986-08.All dimensions are in millimetres.1 ScopeThis standard describes the verification of class 1 and class 2 compression testing machines as inDIN EN 12390-4 by means of a strain cylinder test. Regardless of the maximum capacity of the testingmachine, this test is carrie
7、d out at forces between 200 kN and 2000 kN (see subclause 5.1). Compressiontesting machines as in DIN EN 12390-4 manufactured after publication of this standard shall be tested usinga strain cylinder as specified in clause 4.NOTE: The strain cylinder test is used to evaluate test results from differ
8、ent compression testing machines.It is essential that the seating of the upper platen functions correctly, and that there is correct coordina-tion between all parts of the system (e.g. the contact faces of the platens are flat and the upper and lowerplatens are properly aligned).This standard, toget

12、 the test force is applied centrally when the test piece is installed centrally (see subclause 5.3);b) the seating of the upper platen allows the latter to align itself with the surface of the test piece on makingcontact;c) the seating of the upper platen locks as the load is increased, so that its
13、position is retained in spite ofany eccentric loading (e.g. due to irregularities in the test piece) (see subclause 5.4).4 Measuring systemA strain cylinder with four complete strain gauge bridges shall be used, permitting measurement of the strain(single values and mean) at four points evenly distr
14、ibuted along the circumference.The display may be digital, with a selector switch allowing separate access to each of the bridges (measuringpoints) and enabling separate zeroing for each measuring point and the mean value to be read for all four points.4.1 Material and dimensions of strain cylinderT
15、he strain cylinder shall be made of steel with a yield point of at least 1200 N/mm. It shall have a diameter, d,of (100 t 0,1) mm and a height, h, of (200 t 1) mm. Its contact faces shall be ground. The deviation from flatnessshall be no more than 0,01 mm per 100 mm, the deviation from parallelism o
16、f the two faces shall not exceed0,03 mm per 100 mm and the deviation from squareness of the cylinder in relation to the contact faces shall notexceed 0,1 mm per 100 mm (i.e. 3).Vertical lines at the foot of the cylinder shall be used to indicate the exact position of the measuring points.4.2 Attachi
17、ng the strain gaugesThe strain gauges shall be attached and the measuring points arranged as shown in figure 1.Other arrangements may be used if they produce equivalent results. The effects of ambient temperature canbe largely compensated for by electrical balancing of the bridges.4.3 Checking the e
18、quality of the output signals from the four measuring pointsReliable measurements depend on all four strain gauges being equally sensitive. This shall be checked oncea year using a rotation test, which may, for example, be carried out on a class 1 compression testing machine.In this test, the upper
19、machine platen shall be set parallel to the contact face of the strain cylinder, and four seriesof measurements shall be carried out with the strain cylinder installed centrally (see subclause 5.1).After each series of measurements, the strain cylinder shall be turned by 90 so that, viewed from the
20、operatingside, the measuring point is at the front for series no. I; on the left for series no. II; at the back for series no. III; on the right for series no. IV.At each discrete test force, the readings at the four measuring points shall be recorded and the mean ratio,Rn, shall be calculated as th
21、e criterion for the equality of signal from them (see clause 6). Table 1 gives thelimiting values for Rn.5 Verification5.1 Putting the strain cylinder in place and taking measurementsThe cylinder shall be placed in the compression testing machine, concentric with the machine axis (to within0,2 mm),
22、using the lower platen or a centred auxiliary platen as the datum. It shall be ensured that the cylindermaintains its position under axial loading, using a fixture such as that shown in figure 2.Page 3DIN 51302-2 : 2000-12When testing using eccentric loading, the strain cylinder shall be displaced b
23、y (6 t 0,1) mm from the machineaxis forwards, backwards, to the left and to the right, and locked in each position. The strain cylinder shall bepositioned so that, viewed from the operating side, measuring point no. 1 is at the front. Measurements shallbe carried out at test forces of 200 kN, 400 kN
24、, 800 kN, 1600 kN and 2000 kN. If the capacity of the testingmachine is less than 2000 kN, measurements shall also be carried out at this force.Figure 1: Arrangement of strain gaugesGauge grid length:20 mm to 30 mm80mm to 90mmMeasuring point no. 1Gauge gridlength6 mm to 10 mmMeasuring point no. 2Mea

26、 of the measuring points does the reading exceed the nominal value for the strain cylinderat an axial load of 3 000 kN, i.e., measurements shall only be made up to the test force at which this nominalvalue is recorded at one of the measuring points.The strain cylinder shall be clearly marked as foll
27、ows: “Maximum permitted force to be applied centrally:3 000 kN”. A visual check shall be undertaken to ensure that the safety requirements have been fulfilled.If the strain cylinder is overloaded in an eccentric position, there is a risk of the resulting one-sided compressionof the cylinder producin
28、g horizontal forces which exceed the friction forces between the contact faces of thetesting machine and those of the cylinder, causing the latter to be ejected violently from the testing area.5.3 Checking the central application of force and the self-alignment of the upper machineplatenThe strain c
29、ylinder shall be centred in the testing machine. Four series of measurements shall be carried out,for each of which the upper platen shall be tipped by 3 in a different direction and shall align with the surfaceof the strain cylinder before loading.For measurement series no. 1: platen tipped forward
30、;for measurement series no. 2: platen tipped back;for measurement series no. 3: platen tipped to the left;for measurement series no. 4: platen tipped to the right.The mean, Rn, shall be calculated for each test force from the values recorded at the four measuring points andthe greatest difference be
31、tween the values, DRn, shall be calculated (see clause 6).Neither Rn, as a measure of the applied force nor DRnas a criterion for the self-alignment capacity of the upperplaten shall exceed the limiting values given in table 1.Auxiliary markMagnets withon/off switchAuxiliary marksSpacerPage 5DIN 513

39、age 6DIN 51302-2 : 2000-12Annex AExplanatory notesResults obtained when testing the compression strength of concrete cubes may be subject to a high level ofscatter, irrespective of whether machines of the same type are used for testing or not. Figure A.1 shows theresults obtained from two testing ma
40、chines, the results for which exhibit the same level of scatter, but wherethe mean is different for each. Ideally, the means would be identical, but this is not feasible and requirementsneed to be modified so that scatter is acceptable provided it is sufficiently low. This standard has adopted,virtu
41、ally unchanged, the method developed by Foote 1 using the results of compressive strength tests ob-tained from a reference machine to assess the technical quality of other machines to be tested.1 Testing machine as in DIN 51223, December 1977 edition2 Testing machine as in DIN 51223-1, December 1981
