The length of the wall baseshall not be less than as marked on the label or package when measured with a calibrated scale or tape graduated in 1/8 in. (3.18mm) divisions and ca

46、pable of measuring the maximum length of the specimen. The specimen shall be extended to its full lengthon a flat surface and all creases and buckles removed, insofar as practical, without applying stresses that cause any significantstretching. The measuring device shall be applied in such a manner

47、that the length is not distorted during measurement.9.3.1 If a roll contains multiple lengths, a maximum of three pieces shall be permitted; the shortest length shall not be less than15 ft (4.57 m).9.4 SquarenessEach vertical end of the wall base shall form an angle of 90 6 0.5 with the top edge and
