ISO 10350 identifies specific test procedures for the acquisition and presentation of comparable data
for certain basic properties of plastics. In general, each property is specified by a single experimental
value, although in certain cases properties are represented by two values obtained under different test
conditions or along different directions in the material. The properties included are those presented
conventionally in manufacturers' data sheets.
This document applies to reinforced...view more

This document specifies test methods applicable to unidirectional carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips as external-bonded reinforcements on the concrete substrate. This document is applicable for the CFRP strips that: — consist of carbon fibre and thermoset resin; — are manufactured by pultrusion method; — have a higher carbon fibre fraction such as over 60 %; and — have a thickness within 3 mm. Also, the test pieces for determining tensile properties are cut down from CFRP strips along...view more

This document specifies the test method for obtaining bending moment-curvature curves of fibre-reinforced cementitious composites (FRCCs) through four-point bending test of prism specimens. It is applicable to FRCCs that show separated multiple cracks under pure bending before maximum load.

1.1 This document specifies a procedure for the initial qualification of composite materials in order to allow quality control, material selection and preliminary design to be undertaken. It provides a single procedure allowing quicker and lower cost qualification compared to multiple bi-lateral qualification against different bespoke user needs. This document focuses on developing B-basis design allowables. 1.2 The procedure comprises a standard qualification plan (SQP) that includes the minimu...view more

This document specifies a test method for evaluating flexural performance of fibre-reinforced cementitious composites (FRCCs) using derived parameters. These parameters are derived from the load-deflection curve obtained by testing a circular specimen supported on a concentric ring and loaded by another ring with a smaller diameter. The performance of FRCCs tested by this method is characterized for biaxial properties. This test method provides for the determination of first-cracking load and th...view more
