ASTM WK37691

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

Work Item: ASTM WK37691 - Revision of C547 - 11e1 Standard Specification for Mineral Fiber Pipe Insulation


Active Standard: C547 - 12

Developed by Subcommittee: C16.20 | Committee C16 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

There is general agreement that a caveat statement is needed in the standard to emphasize that the physical properties referenced in the standard are tested under laboratory conditions and that actual in-situ performance will vary when ambient conditions are different than the test conditions. A ballot item to add a statement to the Scope generated negatives that were found persuasive. Discussion at the Task Group resulted in agreement to add a statement to Section 4 Classification to satisfy the negatives.
