ABSTRACT

The dimensions of the test piece shall be measured at the points specified in 4.3.

4.3. Points of measurements The measurements of the dimensions of the test piece shall be taken at the following points:

(a) bending; the thickness at four points, two on each edge 100 mm from the midlength; the width at two points 100 mm from the mid-length;

(b) compression; the thickness at four points, two on each edge 100 mm from the mid-length; the width at two points 100 mm from the mid-length;

(c) tension; the thickness at four points, two on each edge 400 mm from the midlength; the width at two points 400 mm from the mid-length;

(d) panel shear strength; the thickness at four points, two on each edge 100 mm from the mid-length, the length at two points 50 mm from each side;

(e) panel shear modulus; the thickness at the mid-points of the four sides; the length and width at the edges;

(f) in plane of plies shear; the thickness at four points, two on each edge 100 mm from the mid-length; the length at two points 50 mm from each side.
