ASTM C1499: Standard Test Method for Monotonic Equibiaxial Flexural Strength of Advanced Ceramics at Ambient Temperature
ASTM C1499 outlines a procedure to determine the equibiaxial flexural strength of advanced ceramics at room temperature.
The standard considers two types of test specimens:
- Machined Test Specimens: These are precisely fabricated to meet specific dimensional requirements.
- As-Fired Test Specimens: These specimens may exhibit a limited degree of warpage resulting from the firing process.
