1、Designation: D7655/D7655M 12 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Classification forSize of Aggregate Used as Ballast for Membrane RoofSystems1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7655/D7655M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the cas
2、e of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This classification defines the aggregate size designa-tions and ranges in mechanical analy
3、ses for standard sizes ofaggregate used as ballast for membrane roof systems.1.2 The text of this classification references notes andfootnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes andfootnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not beconsidered as requirements of the standard.1
4、.3 With regard to sieve sizes and the size of aggregate asdetermined by the use of testing sieves, the values in inch-pound units are shown for the convenience of the user;however, the standard sieve designations shown in parenthesesis the standard value as stated in Specification E11.1.4 The values
5、 stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1
6、.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
