Title
Standard Test Method for Measuring the Fastener Pull-Through Resistance of a Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Matrix Composite
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Mar 15, 2007
Scope:
This test method determines the fastener pull-through resistance
of multidirectional polymer matrix composites reinforced by
high-modulus fibers. Fastener pull-through resistance is
characterized by the force-versus-displacement response exhibited
when a mechanical fastener is pulled through a composite plate,
with the force applied perpendicular to the plane of the plate. The
composite material forms are limited to continuous-fiber or
discontinuous-fiber (tape or fabric, or both) reinforced composites
for which the laminate is symmetric and balanced with respect to
the test direction. The range of acceptable test laminates and
thicknesses is defined in 8.2.
Two test procedures and configurations are provided. The first,
Procedure A, is suitable for screening and fastener development
purposes. The second, Procedure B, is configuration-dependent and
is suitable for establishing design values. Both procedures can be
used to perform comparative evaluations of candidate
fasteners/fastener system designs.
The specimens described herein may not be representative of
actual joints which may contain one or more free edges adjacent to
the fastener, or may contain multiple fasteners that can change the
actual boundary conditions.
This test method is consistent with the recommendations of
CMH-17, which describes the desirable attributes of a fastener
pull-through test method.
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.
