ASTM WK94356

Revision of E1592-05(2017) Standard Test Method for Structural Performance of Sheet Metal Roof and Siding Systems by Uniform Static Air Pressure Difference

Rationale

This Work Item is being created to address an issue with creating P&B statements for ASTM E1592 and similar standards that are structural tests to failure and often result in variations of 10% or more of with specimens. The need for a P&B statement is questionable with such large variations, as the results are usually applied to design criteria with a factor of safety of 1.67 or larger.
