Thermal insulating products for build applications -

Determination of shear behavior

1 Scope

This Standard specifies the equipment and procedures for determining shear

behaviour. It is applicable to thermal insulating products.

NOTE The tests described in this Standard do not determine pure shear behaviour, but

measure the effects of applying two opposite parallel forces to the major faces of the test

specimen. The test is, however, called "shear" in this text by convention. The application

of a force tangentially to the major surface of the test specimen is considered to represent

more closely the stresses imposed upon thermal insulation products in many building

applications, particularly walls, than other methods of measuring shear performance, e.g.

bending tests.
