    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes a method for the determination of mode II shear load delamination resistance.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of mode II shear load delamination resistance. GIIC, (critical energy release rate), of unidirectional fibre-reinforced plastic composites using the calibrated end-loaded split (C-ELS) test.

    It is applicable to carbon-fibre and glass-fibre reinforced thermosets and thermoplastics.

    The scope is not necessarily limited to these fibres and lay-ups, but for laminates with other types of fibres or lay-ups, no recommendations for specimen dimensions and fibre volume content are currently available.
