BS EN 17129:2018

This standard BS EN 17129:2018 Continuous-fibre-reinforced plastic composites. Pultruded unidirectional rods. Determination of tensile properties in parallel to the fibre direction is classified in these ICS categories:

• 83.120 Reinforced plastics

This document specifies a method for determining the tensile properties of pultruded, unidirectional rods made from continuous fibre-reinforced plastic composites, in parallel to fibre direction. It is applicable to pultruded rods which diameters are preferably ranging from 3 mm to 20 mm. This method is suitable for use with continuous-fibre-reinforced plastic composites made from carbon fibres and glass fibres. This method is suitable for use with all polymer matrix systems reinforced with unidirectional fibres having a cylindrical shape. This method is not intended to be used for testing specimens such as tubes or yarns already covered by other test methods.
