Fiber-reinforced plastics composites - Determination of compressive properties
1 Scope
This standard specifies the specimen, test device, test conditions, test procedures and result calculation for the determination of compressive properties.
This standard is applicable to the determination of compressive stress and compressive modulus of elasticity of fiber-reinforced plastics composites.
