Title
Standard Test Method for Shear Properties of Composite Materials by the V-Notched Beam Method
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Mar 1, 2005
Scope:
This test method covers the shear properties of composite materials
reinforced by high-modulus
fibers. The composite materials are limited to continuous-fiber or
discontinuous-fiber-reinforced
composites in the following material forms:
Laminates composed only of unidirectional fibrous laminae, with the
fiber direction oriented either
parallel or perpendicular to the loading axis.
Laminates composed only of woven fabric filamentary laminae with the
warp direction oriented either
parallel or perpendicular to the loading axis.
Laminates composed only of unidirectional fibrous laminae, containing
equal numbers of plies
oriented at 0 and 90° in a balanced and symmetric stacking
sequence, with the 0° direction
oriented either parallel or perpendicular to the loading axis.
Short-fiber-reinforced composites with a majority of the fibers being
randomly distributed.
NOTE 1 - This shear test concept was originally developed without
reference to fiber direction for
use on isotropic materials such as metals or ceramics.
The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be
regarded separately as standard.
Within the text the inch-pound units are shown in brackets. The values
stated in each system are
not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used
independently of the other. Combining
values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the
standard.
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 and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
