This AS covers Vertical Velocity Instruments which display the rate of change of pressure altitude of an aircraft, as follows: Type A - Direct reading, self-contained, pressure actuated Type B - Electrically or electronically operated, self-contained, pressure actuated Type C - Electrically...
1.1 This test method is designed to determine the resistance of a shipping container to a vertically applied constant load for either a specified time or to failure. The test method may also be used for palletized or unitized load configurations. 1.2 This standard does not purport to address...
1.1 This fire-test-response standard describes a procedure for measuring the minimum concentration of oxygen, expressed as percent volume, that will just support flaming combustion in a flowing mixture of oxygen and nitrogen. 1.2 This test method provides three testing procedures. Procedure A...
5.1 This test method is intended for the determination of the arc rating of a hand protective product material, or a combination of hand protective product materials. 5.1.1 Because of the variability of the arc exposure, different heat transmission values are observed at individual sensors....
1.1 This specification applies to the minimum installation requirements for non metallic plaster bases used with portland cement based plaster in vertical wall applications. 1.2 Where a fire resistance rating is required for plastered assemblies and constructions, details of construction...
9.1 This specification's test method is used to determine an arc rating for eye or face protective products, including face shields, safety spectacles, goggles, or other applicable portions of the complete product that are required to meet the current version of ANSI/ISEA Z87.1. This excludes the...
4.1 The thermal resistance of a ceiling system is used to characterize its steady-state thermal performance. 4.2 The thermal resistance of insulation is related to the density and thickness of the insulation. Test data on thermal resistance are obtained at a thickness and density representative of...
4.1 Core sampling is an acceptable way of obtaining a test specimen without destroying the usefulness of a cathode block. 4.1.1 Test specimens obtained by this guide can be used by producers and users of cathode blocks for the purpose of conducting the tests in Note 1 to obtain comparative physical...
This specification covers the materials, sizing, and manufacturing details of test headforms for use in the testing of protective headgear. This specification identifies the requirements for five test headform size codes: A, E, J, M, and O. All datum levels shall be quoted relative to the reference...
1.1 This test method covers the measurement of stiffness properties of fabrics. Bending length is measured and flexural rigidity is calculated. Two procedures are provided. 1.1.1 Option A-Cantilever Test, employing the principle of cantilever bending of the fabric under its own mass. 1.1.2 Option...
5.1 This test method is used to assess in situ strength of undisturbed soil and compacted materials (or both). The penetration rate of the 8 kg [17.6 lb] DCP can be used to estimate in situ CBR (California Bearing Ratio), to identify strata thickness, shear strength of strata, and other material...
4.1 Excessive sealant slump or sag in a vertical joint may cause improper bead shape or inadequate sealant thickness in the completed joint. Slump measurements, as described in this test method, serve to evaluate only this application characteristic; they do not predict the performance...
This specification covers steel expanded-metal doors suitable for installation in expanded-metal bulkheads, structural bulkheads, and structural arches. Expanded-metal doors are furnished in four types: Type I (right hand), Type II (left hand), Type III (right hand reverse) and Type IV (left hand...
This specification covers warping heads used with windlass, winch, and capstan drive units to pull rope on board ships. Warping heads are primarily for use with fiber rope, natural, or synthetic. Warping heads with external ribs or whelps on the barrel, notched flanges, attached storage drums,...
This specification covers airworthiness requirements for the design of powered fixed wing light sport aircraft, an "airplane." In order to comply with flight requirements, the following shall be evaluated: load distribution limit, propeller speed and pitch limit, stalling speed, takeoff, climb,...
5.1 This test method provides for the following measurements and evaluations: 5.1.1 Movement capacity of the perimeter fire barrier. 5.1.2 Loadbearing capacity of the perimeter joint protection is optional. 5.1.3 Ability of the perimeter fire barrier to resist the passage of flames and hot gases. 5...
This specification deals with molds for forming concrete test cylinders vertically. Molds shall be constructed in the form of right circular cylinders and have a nominal inside height equal to twice the nominal inside diameter. The following are types of molds covered: reusable molds and...
5.1 The procedures described in this practice have proven utility in the inspecting (1) monolithic polymer matrix composites (laminates) for bulk defects, (2) metals for corrosion during the service life of the part of interest, (3) thickness checks, (4) adhesive bonding of metals, composites, and...
1.1 This guide is intended for two distinct readers: educators who wish to develop curricula and training courses and individual pilots wishing to raise their knowledge level for particular flight operations. The guide describes the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to safely operate...
