1、Designation:D6381/D6381M15Standard Test Method forMeasurement of Asphalt Shingle Mechanical UpliftResistance1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6381/D6381M;the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of
2、 last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers measuring the uplift resistanceof asphalt roofing shingles by mechanical means.It is appli-cable t
3、o shingles that use a factory-applied or field-appliedsealant.1.2 There are several types of shingles designed for servicewithout a factory-applied or field-applied sealant.Theseshingles,when applied in accordance with the manufacturersapplication instructions,employ other means to provide resis-tan
4、ce against the forces generated by the action of wind such asgeometry and shingle construction.Field experience has shownthat these types of shingles function satisfactorily in service.Because there are a variety of these shingle designs,it is notpractical to describe in this test method how to test
5、 theseshingles for uplift resistance.The testing of these types ofshingles,therefore,goes beyond the scope of this test method.1.3 This test method describes two procedures for measur-ing shingle uplift resistance.Procedure A employs a speciallydesigned apparatus with a clamping device which facilit
6、ateslifting of the edge of the shingle and measuring the forcerequired to break the seal.Procedure B employs a metal“T”section adhered to the weather surface of the shingle tofacilitate application and measurement of a perpendicular forceto break the seal.1.4 It is not prohibited to use this test me
7、thod over a rangeof sealing time and temperature combinations and testingtemperatures to simulate a variety of actual field use condi-tions.The times and temperatures used shall be stated in thereport.1.5 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standa
8、rd.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated
9、with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D228 Test Methods for Sampling,Testing,and Analysis ofAsphalt Roll
