This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 3 February 2009 for provisional application.
The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to submit their
comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.
CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS available
promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in parallel to the CEN/TS)
until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.
CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal,
Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

Foreword
This document (CEN/TS 15867:2009) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 184 “Advanced
technical ceramics”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
1 Scope
This Technical Specification provides guidance on:
 verifying the degree of misalignment of the load train of test machines, using a reference test specimen
uniformly loaded in tension or in compression;
 correcting for defects caused by, e.g. torsion and bending.
This document is not intended to provide a quantitative and acceptable limit before the testing of ceramic
matrix composites with a fibre reinforcement: unidirectional (1D), bidirectional (2D) and tridirectional (xD, with
2 < x ≤ 3) loaded along one principle axis of reinforcement. This limit depends on the sensitivity of each type
of composite to the misalignment defect.
NOTE 1 This limit is to be defined between the testing establishment and the customer.
NOTE 2 Monolithic ceramics are very sensitive to misalignment defects, while ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) in
general are moderately sensitive to them.
