DOUBLE REVERSE CORRUGATION CORE (DRC),

Abstract

The objective of the test procedure was to determine the relative strength properties of double reversed corrugated aluminum cre with respect to aluminum honeycomb core of the same density. Two panels of 3.94 lb/cu ft core made from .005 inch gage 2024 aluminum and two panels of 6.83 lb/cu ft core made from .010 inch gage 2024 aluminum were used in this testing. These panels were cut into smaller pieces and fifty-three specimens were used. The results showed that the subject core had approximately 40-60% of the strength properties of the reference core. The modulus properties of the subject core were closely related to the method of attachment of core-to-skin bond. Further design work and testing is recommended for the double reversed corrugated aluminum core. (Author)
