Standard Test Method for Determining Tensile Properties of Fiber Reinforced Polymer Matrix Composites Used for Strengthening of Civil Structures

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This test method can be used to obtain the tensile force capacity and ultimate tensile strain of FRP material used for the strengthening of other structural materials such as, metals, timber, and reinforced concrete. The principal test variables could be the FRP constituents and fabrication method or the size or type of FRP laminate. The obtained tensile properties can be used for material specifications, quality control and assurance, structural design and analysis, and research and development.

5.2 This test method focuses on the FRP material itself, irrespective of the gripping method. Therefore, maximum force and strain data associated with failure or pullout at either grip are disregarded. The force capacity and maximum strain measurements are based solely on test specimens that fail in the gauge section.
