5.1 Flexure tests on flat sandwich constructions may be conducted to determine the sandwich flexural stiffness, the core shear strength and shear modulus, or the facing’s compressive and tensile strengths. Tests to evaluate core shear strength may also be used to evaluate core-to-facing bonds. 5.2 This practice provides a standard method of determining sandwich flexural and shear stiffness and core shear modulus using calculations involving measured deflections of sandwich flexure specimens. Tests can be conducted on short specimens and on long specimens (or on one specimen loaded in two ways), and the flexural stiffness, shear rigidity, and core shear modulus can be determined by simultaneous solution of the complete deflection equations for each span or each loading. If the facing modulus values are known, a short span beam can be tested and the calculated bending deflection subtracted from the beam's total deflection. This gives the shear deflection from which the transverse shear modulus can be determined. Note 1: Core shear strength and shear modulus are best
determined in accordance with Test Method C273, provided bare core material is
available.
Note 2: For cores with high shear modulus, the shear
deflection will be quite small and ordinary errors in deflection
measurements will cause considerable variations in the calculated
shear modulus.
Note 3: To ensure that simple sandwich beam theory is valid, a
good rule of thumb for a four-point bending test is the span length
divided by the sandwich thickness should be greater than 20
(1.1 This practice covers determination of
the flexural and transverse shear stiffness properties of flat
sandwich constructions subjected to flexure in such a manner that
the applied moments produce curvature of the sandwich facing
planes. Permissible core material forms include those with
continuous bonding surfaces (such as balsa wood and foams) as well
as those with discontinuous bonding surfaces (such as honeycomb).
The calculation methods in this practice are limited to sandwich
beams exhibiting linear force-deflection response. This practice
uses test results obtained from Test Methods C393/C393M or D7249/D7249M, or both.
1.2 Units—The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system are not necessarily exact equivalents; therefore, to ensure conformance with the standard, each system shall be used independently of the other, and values from the two systems shall not be combined. 1.2.1 Within the text, the inch-pound units are shown in brackets. 1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. |
