3、 of thetime-to-failure(creep-rupture)of joints fabricated from nonbi-tuminous organic roof membrane material.The test methodcovers both T-peel and lap-shear joints subjected to constanttensile load under controlled environmental conditions.Thejoints,made from either unreinforced or fabric-reinforced
4、membrane material,are prepared in the laboratory or sampledfrom roofs in service.1.2 Sheet materials from which the joints are fabricatedinclude vulcanized rubbers,nonvulcanized polymeric sheets,and thermoplastics.The bonding methods for joint formationinclude the use of liquid-based adhesives,prefo
5、rmed tapes,andthermal and solvent weld processes.1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the t
