Scope of ASTM Standards

ASTM standards provide test procedures and specifications that define and verify material characteristics and performance. The standards cover a spectrum from refined materials to basic products.

Material Characteristics: Chemical composition, physical properties, mechanical properties, and performance metrics.
Product Scope: Refined materials (e.g., steel alloys), basic products (e.g., machinery), and fabricated equipment.
Testing Purpose: To determine, verify, and specify essential characteristics for quality control, safety, and regulatory compliance.
