Scope
Applicability. This method outlines a standard procedure for determining the room temperature static strength of lap shear joints attached with quick-release structural panel fasteners. The significant strength properties include the ultimate strength and the yield strength of the joint. The data is to be used to establish joint allowable loads. This test method applies to sheet metal lap joints fastened with quick-release structural panel fasteners.
