EN 2562 Test Fixture

Description

EN 2562 – Aerospace Series – Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastics – Unidirectional Laminates

Flexural Test Parallel to the Fibre Direction

 

EN 2562 specifies the method for the determination of the flexural strength and flexural modulus of carbon fibre reinforced plastics in the form of

unidirectional laminates by a flexural test.

This method is only applicable to specimens where the length is parallel to the direction of the fibres.

Three-point flexure testing of fibre-reinforced composites per EN 2562 is done to determine the relevant property data for material screening or quality control.

The flexure test is performed by placing the specimen symmetrically on the support fixture that is mounted either to a servohydraulic or an electromechanical

testing machine.

The load is applied to the specimen at mid-span until failure occurs.

The specimen deflection can be measured with a deflection measuring device.

Properties that are measured include flexural strength, flexural modulus, and other aspects of the flexural stress/strain relationship.

This standard addresses unidirectional laminates of carbon fibre-reinforced plastics.
