ASTM D6992 covers accelerated testing for tensile creep, and tensile creep-rupture properties using the Stepped Isothermal Method (SIM). ASTM D6992 is focused on geosynthetic reinforcement materials such as yarns, ribs of geogrids, or narrow geotextile specimens. Use of the Stepped Isothermal Method decreases the time required for creep to occur and the obtaining of the associated data.
