Rejection of the material shall bebased either on the specific cause of failure to conform to therequirements of this sp
35、ecification or the failure of the materialto meet the minimum weight or approximate volume as statedon the shipment.9.2 Failure to meet the minimum weight or approximatevolume shall be determined as follows:9.2.1 Individual Packages:9.2.1.1 The contents, on a weight basis, are 5 % less thanthat indi
36、cated on the packages, or9.2.1.2 The contents, on a volume basis, are 10 % less thanthat indicated on the package.9.2.2 The Entire Shipment:9.2.2.1 On a weight basis when the average contents of 2packages for each 100 but not less than 6 packages selected atrandom, in any one shipment, are less than
37、 that indicated on thepackage. The net weight of the contents shall be determined byweighing the package or packages and deducting the weight ofthe container.9.2.2.2 On a volume basis when the average contents of 2packages for each 100 but not less than 6 packages selected atrandom, in any one shipm
38、ent, differ by more than 5 % more or10 % less from that indicated on the package. The volume ofthe contents in the package shall be calculated by determiningthe weight of the contents of the package and then obtainingthe weight per unit of volume of the aggregate, from anaverage weight package of th
39、e samples selected in 6.3.1,bytheshoveling procedure given in Test Method C 29/C 29M, andthen dividing the weight of the contents of the bag by the unitof volume of the aggregate.10.
