该方法描述了用凹槽测定边缘抗压强度的程序 垂直，垂直于凹槽轴的荷载，由单壁、双壁或三壁瓦楞纤维板组成的短柱。该方法包括切割试样的程序（锯切和刀切）、一个试样支撑程序（弹簧支撑夹具）和两个施加压缩力的程序 （恒定应变率或恒定载荷率）。研究表明，这些程序的任何组合将产生具有规定精度的类似试验结果（第9节）。

This method describes procedures for determining the edgewise compressive strength, with flutes vertical, loading perpendicular to the axis of the flutes, of a short column of single-, double-, or triple-wall corrugated fiberboard.The method includes procedures for cutting the test specimen (saw cutting and knife cutting), one procedure for specimen support (spring support clamp fixture), and two procedures for applying the compressive force (constant strain rate, or constant load rate). Studies have shown that any combination of these procedures will yield similar test results with the stated precision (Section 9).
