Applications:
The ASTM D695 standard describes the compression test for determination of mechanical characteristics such as the Young's modulus and strength for unreinforced and reinforced plastics according to the end loading compression principle. The force is applied solely via the end faces of the test specimen. ASTM D695 can be used for fiber composites with a stiffness of up to 41 GPa, which includes glass fiber reinforced fabric composites.
