44、mposition. Calculatethe test results of the three test pieces in accordance with Eq 1and average the results.10.3 Weigh each test piece in air to the nearest 1 mg, recordthe mass as M1, and mount three test pieces on a glass rod sothat a minimum of 6-mm (0.25-in.) separation is maintainedbetween the

45、 test pieces through the use of spacers, for example,perforated glass beads.
