ASTM WK38289

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

Work Item: ASTM WK38289 - Revision of A965 / A965M - 12 Standard Specification for Steel Forgings, Austenitic, for Pressure and High Temperature Parts


Active Standard: A965 / A965M - 12

Developed by Subcommittee: A01.06 | Committee A01 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

During a recent ballot that was intended to clarify the silicon requirement for a grade in A 965, a comment was made concerning situations where only a single value is given for an element in the table of composition. In A 965 currntly Table 1 shows the word max inthis situation. The comment suggested that use of a footnote against the value for element in questio would avoid cluttering the table. This revision proposes to do that.
