25、.1 One test specimen shall be taken from each 5000 lbs or2500 kg. or fraction, thereof, in the inspection lot.16.2 Each specimen shall be tested for compliance withSections 8, 9, 11, and 14. At least half of the specimens shallbe tested for compliance with Section 10.16.3 Should one or more of the t

26、est specimens fail any ofthe tests specified, the nonconforming coil or coils may beremoved and the balance of the lot subjected to retests. Forretest purposes, two additional coils for each 5000 lbs or 2500kg. in the lot shall be sampled and tested for the property inwhich the original sample faile

27、d to comply.16.4 Should any of the retest specimens fail to meet theproperties specified, the lot represented by the test specimensshall be rejected.16.5 Instead of rejecting the entire lot as provided in 16.4,the producer may test specimens from every coil in the lot forTABLE 1 Zinc CoatingSpecifie
