ASTM WK34634

(What is a Work Item? / How to Input to a Work Item)

Work Item: ASTM WK34634 - Revision of C177 - 10 Standard Test Method for Steady-State Heat Flux Measurements and Thermal Transmission Properties by Means of the Guarded-Hot-Plate Apparatus


Active Standard: C177 - 10

Developed by Subcommittee: C16.30 | Committee C16 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

Although there is no ASTM policy that requires a standard to be written using mandatory language, the task group has recognized that this standard could benefit from more prescriptive language. The task group has undertaken to review and revise the standard with mandatory language where appropriate.
