3、rtment of Defense.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of flexuralstrength and modulus of elasticity in flexure of cured chemical-resistant materials in the form of molded rectangular beams.These materials include mortars,brick and tile grouts,struc-tural grouts,machinery grouts,mono
4、lithic surfacings(60 milsor greater),and polymer concretes.These materials shall bebased on resin,silicate,silica,or sulfur binders.1.2 A bar of rectangular cross section is tested in flexure asa simple beam in center point loading:the bar rests on twosupports and the load is applied by means of a l
