1.1本试验方法提供了评估成品金属连接板净截面抗拉强度性能的基本程序。 1.2本试验方法是确定不同类型和尺寸的金属连接板在张力下的比较性能的基础。 1.3一种配套试验方法，即试验方法E767，涵盖了这些板的剪切性能试验。 1.4方法 D1761 涵盖使用金属连接板期间木构件中的齿和钉子的性能（见注释1）。 注1-最大抗拉设计荷载是穿孔金属连接板净横截面有效性的指示，不一定是板在将荷载从木构件传递到木构件时有效性的标准，因为该性能受多个因素的影响，包括所考虑木材中使用的钉子或整体板投影或其组合的有效性，并根据方法D1761进行测试。 1.5本试验方法不适用于暴露在长期不利环境条件下的金属连接器板的腐蚀试验，因为暴露会导致板劣化。在这种情况下，应为耐腐蚀性测试引入特殊规定。 1.6本标准无意解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的用户有责任在使用前制定适当的安全和健康实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。

1.1 This test method provides a basic procedure for evaluating the tensile strength properties of the net section of finished metal connector plates. 1.2 This test method serves as a basis for determining the comparative performance of different types and sizes of metal connector plates in tension. 1.3 A companion test method, Test Method E767, covers the performances tests on these plates in shear. 1.4 Method D1761 covers the performance of the teeth and nails in wood members during the use of metal connector plates (see Note 1). Note 1-The maximum design load in tension, an indication of the effectiveness of the net cross section of the perforated metal connector plate, is not necessarily a criterion of the effectiveness of the plate in transmitting the load from wood member to wood member, since that property is influenced by a number of factors, including the effectiveness of the nails or that of the integral plate projections, or a combination thereof, used in the wood species under consideration, and tested in accordance with Method D1761. 1.5 This test method does not provide for the corrosion testing of metal connector plates exposed to long-term adverse environmental conditions where plate deterioration occurs as a result of exposure. Under such conditions, special provisions shall be introduced for the testing for corrosion resistance. 1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, 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.
