1、Designation:D684121Standard Practice forCalculating Design Value Treatment Adjustment Factors forFire-Retardant-Treated Lumber1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6841;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,
2、the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers procedures for calculating adjust-ment factors that account for the effects of fire-retard
3、anttreatment on design properties of lumber.The adjustmentfactors calculated in accordance with this practice are to beapplied to design values for untreated lumber in order todetermine design values for fire-retardant-treated lumber usedat ambient temperatures service temperatures up to 100 F(38C)a
4、nd as framing in roof systems.NOTE1This analysis focuses on the relative performance of treatedand untreated materials tested after equilibrating to ambient conditionsfollowing a controlled exposure to specified conditions of high tempera-ture and humidity.Elevated temperature,moisture,load duration
5、,andother factors typically accounted for in the design of untreated lumbermust also be considered in the design of fire-retardant-treated lumber,butare outside the scope of the treatment adjustments developed under thispractice.1.2 These adjustment factors for the design properties inbending,tensio
6、n parallel to grain,compression parallel tograin,horizontal shear,and modulus of elasticity are based onthe results of strength tests of matched treated and untreatedsmall clear wood specimens after conditioning at nominalroom temperatures 72 F(22 C)and of other similarspecimens after exposure at 15
7、0 F(66 C).The test data aredeveloped in accordance with Test Method D5664.Guidelinesare provided for establishing adjustment factors for the prop-erty of compression perpendicular to grain and for connectiondesign values.1.3 Treatment adjustment factors for roof framing applica-tions are based on th
