ASTM C364 / C364M Testing Fixture – Application The edgewise compressive strength of short sandwich construction specimens shall determine the load-carrying capacity of the construction in terms of developed facing stress. This is a standard method of obtaining sandwich edgewise compressive strengths for panel design properties, material specifications, research and ...
COMPRESSION PLATENS – FIXED AND SPHERICAL SEAT TESTING FIXTURE It can be provided platens of all types, in all sizes and load capacities, and also custom designs for special applications. Platens of 6" diameter are the most popular size. Typically, platens are fabricated of fully through-heat-treated 440C stainless steel, characterized ...
ASTM D3410 Testing Fixture This method defines the compression properties in the plane of composite materials with polymer matrix reinforced with high modulus fibers. The composite material forms are limited to continuous or discontinuous fiber-reinforced composites. For this reason, the elastic properties are particularly orthotropic with respect to the test ...
