Characteristic value based on testing results
Characteristic value based on testing results
(OP)
Hi everyone,
It seems like such a simple idea to me - however I require some guidance to determine the Characteristic values for a series of numbers.
I am currently testing a new product to be released and I am currently testing the screw pull-out tensile strength through thin sheet steel.
I have 10 results from testing and just need to obtain the characteristic value to use for the design.
My understanding is that out of 100 test specimens, 95% must pass the minimum limit.
How can I obtain this?
My apologies that this is not a specific structural engineering query.
Thanks

EuroCode EN1990 Appendix D might give you the guideline
