Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1NOTE2.1, 7.1, and Table 3 were editorially corrected and 1.5 and Note 3 were editorially added in January 2011.1. Scope1.1 This specificati

Itis intended to apply throughout the service life of the material.1.2 This specification applies to both painted and tape lines,including thermo
4、plastic, epoxy and other types.1.3 This specification is not applicable to the testing, forquality control purposes, of marking material without addeddrop-on beads.1.4 In addition, it does not describe requirements other thancolor such as retroreflectance.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be
5、regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.5.1 ExceptionThis specification is noted to be a SIdocument, where angles are generally expressed in radians.However, as angles used in retroreflection have historicallybeen identified in degrees, the International Com
6、mittee forWeights and Measures (CIPM, Comit International des Poidset Mesures) accepts the use of degrees with SI units, andEuropean Normatives and documents from the InternationalCommission on Illumination (CIE) use degrees for retroreflec-tion geometry.2.
