It may not address themechanical properties integrity testing and verification required for highly loaded or safety critical applications.1.3 A

4、lloy and temper designations are in accordance with ANSI H35.1/H35.1 (M). The equivalent Unified Numbering Systemalloy designations are in accordance with Practice E527.1.4 Unless the order specifies the “M” specification designation, the material shall be furnished to the inch-pound units.1.5 For a

5、cceptance criteria for inclusion of new aluminum and aluminum alloys and their properties in this specification, seeAnnex A1 and Annex A2.1.6 UnitsThe values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values statedin each system may not be exact equi

6、valents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining valuesfrom the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user

7、 of this standard to establish appropriate safety safety, health, and healthenvironmental practices and determine theapplicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.8 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardizationestablish
