1. Rationale
The D08 Executive Committee has requested that standards take in account that our work is on an international scale and needs to include information for use in climates outside those found in the United States. Canada is a major trading partner and as such, the properties of BURA used in colder climates have been added to D312 as a separate table. D08 has also asked that cold weather requirements be included in product specifications so that the Canadian Code Bodies can reference ASTM specifications in the codes. Language to the affect that packaging is not to damage the material the packaging is holding and should not be detrimental to the product has also been added as requested by Executive Committee.
