ASTM Standardization Concepts
13
ASTM Standardization Concept
A decentralized system
• ASTM’s technical
committees make the
decisions
• ASTM provides an open
forum and an administrative
framework
14
ASTM Standardization Concept
The system is open Fair - Anyone may speak
and participate (Voting
members must participate)
Methodical
Rigorous process with
checks and balances
15
ASTM Standardization Concept
Partnership of the public and private sector
Marketplace orientation
Reflects changes in technology
ASTM’s standards are voluntary
• Standards are only mandatory when cited
in regulation or called out in a contract
16
What is a Standard?
As used in ASTM, a document developed and established within the consensus principles of the organization and which meets the requirements of ASTM procedures and regulations.
Full consensus standards developed with participation of all parties who have a stake in the standards’ development and/or use.
Standards
ASTM uses term “standard” as adjective to
describe following types of standards: Specifications
Test Methods
Practices
Guides
Classifications
Terminology
