Trade Standards

What is the role of standards in the global marketplace? The link between standards and international trade is examined in this course, which will: Demonstrate the importance of standards to global trade Describe standards harmonization and illustrate the concept, using examples...

This standard covers Manpower and Personnel (M&P) processes throughout planning, design, development, test, production, use, and disposal of a system. Depending on contract phase and/or complexity of the program, tailoring can be applied. The scope of this standard includes Prime and Subcontractor...

1.1 This is a compilation of only those terms and corresponding definitions included in or being considered for inclusion in ASTM documents relating to thermophysical properties. It is not intended as an all-inclusive listing of thermophysical property terms. Terms that are generally understood or...

1.1 This practice describes a direct microscopic counting method (DMC) for the enumeration of the acid-fast stained mycobacteria population in metalworking fluids. It can be used to detect levels of total mycobacteria population, including culturable as well as non-culturable (possibly dead or...

1.1 This specification covers concentric-lay-stranded conductors made from uncoated hard-drawn round copper wires in combination with hard-drawn round copper-clad steel wires for general use as overhead electrical conductors. 1.2 For the purpose of this specification, conductors are classified...

1.1 This specification covers requirements for centrifugal castings of copper-base alloys having the nominal compositions shown in Table 1. 1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact...

1.1 This specification covers bare concentric-lay-stranded conductors made from bare, hard-drawn, round, aluminum-clad steel wires of 20.3?% conductivity for general use of electrical purposes. This specification does not apply to stranded conductors for reinforcement in ACSR conductors. 1.2 The...

1.1 This specification covers round, aluminum-clad steel core wire with two designations of tensile strengths, AW2 (Normal Strength) and AW3 (High Strength). 1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system are...

1.1 This test method covers the determination of solvent extractables in petroleum waxes. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. 1.2.1 Exception-The values given in parentheses are for information only. 1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety...

1.1 This practice establishes minimum requirements for packaging of supplies and equipment, exclusive of ammunition, explosives, or hazardous materials, as covered in Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations. 1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. No other...

1.1 This test method covers the determination of the vibratory packing density of formed catalyst and catalyst carriers. For the purpose of this test, catalyst particles are defined as extrudates, spheres, or formed pellets of 0.8-mm to 4.8-mm (1/32-in. to 3/16-in.) nominal diameter. 1.2 The values...

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 all of...
