ASTM D6484 – Open-Hole Compressive Strength of Polymer Matrix Composite Laminates

ASTM D6484 – Standard Test Method for Open-Hole Compressive Strength of Polymer Matrix Composite Laminates

 

ASTM D6484  – This test method determines the open-hole compressive strength of multidirectional polymer matrix composite laminates reinforced

by high-modulus fibers.

The composite material forms are limited to continuous-fiber or discontinuous-fiber (tape or fabric, or both) reinforced composites in which the laminate is

balanced and symmetric with respect to the test direction.

The open hole is used as a weak spot in the sample which causes the rupture to occur near it.

The shear fixtures tend to be used either with compression platens or with fatigue rated wedge grips.

ASTM D6484  – Significance and Use

This test method is designed to produce notched compressive strength data for structural design allowables, material specifications, research and development,

and quality assurance.

Factors that influence the notched compressive strength and shall therefore be reported include the following:

Material, methods of material fabrication, accuracy of lay-up, laminate stacking sequence and overall thickness, specimen geometry, specimen preparation

(especially of the hole),

specimen conditioning, environment of testing, specimen alignment and gripping, loading procedure, speed of testing, void content, and volume percent

reinforcement.

Properties that may be derived from this test method include open-hole (notched) compressive strength (OHC).

ASTM D6484  –  Geometry

The sample is a long bar, about a foot in length. A hole is drilled in the center to create an area of weakness that is the focus for the test.

---

ASTM D6484  –  Solution

This procedures calls for a open hole compression shear fixture. The fixture is end loaded, and both sides exert a compressive force onto the sample.
