10、n,and design datageneration purposes.The user needs to assess the applicabilityof the method on the specific material and for the intended use,as shown by the interlaboratory study.4.2 This test method determines the maximum loading on agraphite specimen with simple beam geometry in threepointbendin
11、g,and it provides a means for the calculation of flexuralstrength at ambient temperature and environmental conditions.4.3 The flexure stress is computed based on simple beamtheory with assumptions that the material is isotropic andhomogeneous,the moduli of elasticity in tension and compres-sion are
12、identical,and the material is linearly elastic.Formaterials with large grains,the minimum specimen dimensionshould be significantly larger than the maximum grain size(seeGuide D7775).4.4 Flexural strength of a group of test specimens isinfluenced by several parameters associated with the testprocedu
13、re.Such factors include the loading rate,testenvironment,specimen size,specimen preparation,and testfixtures.Specimen sizes and fixtures should be chosen toreduce errors due to material variability or testing parameters,such as friction and non-parallelism of specimen surfaces.1This test method is u
