What are ASTM standards

American Standard Test

ASTM Standards Classification

ASTM standards are divided into the following six types.

(1) Standard Test Method (Standard Test Method) It is a prescribed procedure for identifying, testing, and evaluating the quality, characteristics, and parameters of a material, product, system, or service and other indicators.

(2) Standard Specification (Standard Specification) It puts forward technical requirements for materials, products, systems, or projects and gives specific instructions, but also puts forward to meet the technical requirements of the procedures to be used.

(3) Standard Practice (Standard Practice) It gives instructions for one or more specific operations or functions, but does not produce test results of the program.

(4) Standard Terminology (Standard Terminology) It describes or defines a noun, symbols, acronyms, acronyms to illustrate.

(5) Standard Guide (Standard Guide) It selects a series or explains the usage, but does not introduce the specific implementation method.

(6) Standard Classification (Class. fication) It distinguishes and categorizes materials, products, systems, or specific services according to their origin, composition, properties, or use.
