1、Designation: D6607 00 (Reapproved 2015)Standard Practice forInclusion of Precision Statement Variation in SpecificationLimits1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6607; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision

2、, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers a method of determining rationalspecification limits by inclusion of the precision

3、of the testmethod used in the specification.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of

4、 the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

7、actice, consultPractice E177.4. Significance and Use4.1 Each test method has a limited precision. Even if a testis performed as carefully and as correctly as possible on amaterial which is as homogeneous as can be obtained, the testwill still vary from one to another. A widely used measure ofthe var

8、iation of the test results from a test method is thestandard deviation (). In an ASTM standard test, the standarddeviation of the test method can be found in the Precision andBias statement for the test. The “Blue Book,” Form and Stylefor ASTM Standards, requires that all test methods includePrecisi

9、on and Bias statements. Practice C670 and PracticeC802 provide guidance for determination of these values.4.2 If the precision of a test method is low and the precisionof the test has not been properly considered in a materialspecification, a uniform material with the right quality may stillbe rejec

10、ted most of the time because of the wide variation ofthe test results. In order to have rational specification limits, theprecision of the test used should be properly included in aspecification.4.3 This practice provides a guideline for proper inclusionof precision of the test method in a rational

11、specification.5. Procedure5.1 Determine the effective standard deviation (X)ofthetest results due to the combined effects of materials variationand test variation using Eq 1:X5 M21T2!

12、est property due to test method(see Note 2).NOTE 1Mis the expected standard deviation of the material propertywhen the material is produced in a properly controlled process.Astandarddeviation which is representative of the acceptable variation of thematerial can be used. It can be calculated from th
