ASTM C1354/C1354M-09
(Test Method)Standard Test Method for Strength of Individual Stone Anchorages in Dimension Stone
Standard Test Method for Strength of Individual Stone Anchorages in Dimension Stone
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
This test method is intended to provide information from which applicable design data can be determined for a given anchor used to support a dimension stone panel. The strength of a limited length of anchor may be related to a longer length of support when the flexibility of the support is properly considered by the designer. Refer to Guide C 1242.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method provides procedures for determining the ultimate strength of an assembly consisting of stone with mechanical anchor (anchorage). Load is applied, separately, perpendicular to the surface of the panel and parallel to the surface of the panel. This test is intended to represent the interaction of the anchor with the stone panel. However, influence of the backup structure on the strength of the assemblies is not included.
1.2 This test method is applicable to stone panels supported by mechanical anchors.
1.3 Units—The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

3.1 Definitions:
3.1.1 anchor, n—in general , a metal shape inserted into a slot or hole in the stone panel that provides for the transfer of loads
from the stone to the building structure, either directly or through an intermediate structure.

3.1.3 panel, n—cut stone with large face dimensions in relation to its thickness, for placement in a building structure or frame
assembly.
4. Summary of Test Method
4.1 Test specimens consisting of a stone panel sample and a mechanical anchor are fabricated in the same manner and of the
same materials as their intended construction uses. The mechanical anchor is connected to a test support. A test load is applied
perpendicular or parallel to the face of the stone panel. The test load is applied gradually using a calibrated test machine; load is
increased until the stone or the mechanical anchor fails.
4.2 The load at failure and mode of failure of each test specimen is observed and recorded. The test as described above is
repeated five times for each combination of stone and anchor to be tested and for each direction of load to be tested.
