Significance and Use6.1 Acceptance TestingThe test methods in SpecificationD2256 and D3218 for the determination of the properties ofpolyolefin

25、cut strands are considered satisfactory for accep-tance testing of commercial shipments of polyolefin cut strandsfor use in concrete.6.2 Laboratory Correlation TestingIf there are differencesof practical significance between reported test results for twolaboratories (or more) a comparative test shou

26、ld be performedto determine if there is a statistical bias between them, usingcompetent statistical assistance. As a minimum, use testsamples that are as homogeneous as possible, drawn from thematerial from which the disparate test results were obtained,and randomly assigned in equal numbers to each

27、 laboratory fortesting. The test results from the two laboratories should becompared using a statistical test for unpaired data, at aprobability level chosen prior to the testing series. If a bias isfound either its cause must be found and corrected or future testresults for that material must be ad

28、justed in consideration of theknown bias.7. Sampling and Number of Specimens7.1 Take samples as directed in the applicable materialspecification, or as agreed upon by the purchaser and thesupplier. In the absence of an applicable material specification,or other agreement, take a lot sample and labor

29、atory samples asdirected in Practices D2258 or D3218.NOTE 1An adequate specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and the supplier requires taking into account variability betweenshipping units, between packages, or ends within a shipping unit, andbetween specimens from a single package s
