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

Work Item: ASTM WK40053 - Revision of E1820 - 11 Standard Test Method for Measurement of Fracture Toughness


Active Standard: E1820 - 11e1

Developed by Subcommittee: E08.07 | Committee E08 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

A number of changes to Section A2.4.4 of E1820-11, mainly dealing with the compliance rotation correction for C(T) specimens, are proposed. The rationale for all the changes is enhanced clarity for the user, and the modifications have been discussed and approved by the E08.07.07 subcommittee during the meeting in Atlanta (November 2012).
