B.3 Assessment of test result B.3.1 Parametric test In order to inspect the required properties, for instance the natural parameter of Res Ras Ag OF A, then the following parameters should be determined. a) All individual value of X; in 15 samples (n=15); b) Average ms (n=15); ©) Standard deviation Ss (7=15). If all properties meet the assigned conditions in formula (B.1), then this test batch is qualified. ms—2.33 * Sis2 fh. (B.1) Where: fr —Required characteristic value; 2.33—It is required that coefficient K should be inspected or accepted, if 1=15, confidence level is 90% (1—a=0.90) and defective faction is $% (P=0.95). If the aforesaid condition can’t be met, then the coefficient K'= should be is determined by the test result. Where, if X’ 22, the test can be continued. In such case, about 45 samples should be cut off from different strips of steel bars in this test batch, then about 60 test results can be obtained (760) totally. In such case, about 45 samples should be cut off from 20different strips of steel bars in this test batch, then about 60 test results can be obtained (r=60) totally. If all properties meet the assigned conditions in formula (B.2), then this test batch is ‘qualified. me—1.93 * Seo? fie -(B.2) Where: 1.93——"The coefficient K should be inspected or accepted, under the condition of 1n=60, confidence level of 90% (I—a=0.90) and defective faction of 5% (00.95) B32 Property check If the test property is required as the extreme value, and the measuring result of 15 samples conform to the requirement in this part, then this test batch is considered qualified. If two test results mismatch conditions at the most, then the test should be continued, namely taking additional 45 samples from different steel bars in the same test batch, then about 60 test results is obtained, among which 2 samples mismatch conditions then this test batch is considered qualified. B33 Chemical composition Both of the two samples should conform to the requirement in this part. 21Annex C (Informative) Design Formula of Specific Projected Rib Area of Steel Bar ‘The specific projected rib area “7,” of steel bar can be calculated by formula (C.1) and formula (C.2) KxF, xsing feo vndxl ‘Where: K—Row number of traverse rib (for instance ribs on both sides, K=2); (C1) F, Longitudinal cross-section of «rib, with unit of square millimeter (mm f-—The included angle between transverse rib and steel bar axis, with unit of degree (°); d—Steel bar nominal diameter, with unit of millimeter (mm); 1 —Traverse rib spacing, with unit of millimeter (mm). ‘The given geometric parameter and specific projected ribs can also be calculated by approximate formula (C.2): (dxx-> f)x(ht 4h) 4 6xdxax1 (C.2) Where: $f —The traverse rib terminal spacing sum on the two neighboring surface of steel bar (including the width of longitudinal rib), with unit of millimeter (mm); Midpoint height of traverse rib, with unit of millimeter (mm); ‘hye —The height on the quarter length of traverse rib, with unit of millimeter (mm). 2
