A testing laboratory must beselected with care.4.2 A testing laboratory shall be deemed qualified to per-form and report the results of its tests if the laboratory meetsthe requirements of this practice.4.3 Th

21、is practice provides guidance for evaluating theorganization, personnel, facilities, and quality systems of thelaboratory. This practice may be supplemented by criteria andrequirements for particular projects.5. Documentation of Organization5.1 The following information shall be readily available fo

22、rreview:5.1.1 A description of the organization, including the com-plete legal name and address of the main office and eachlaboratory location, names and positions of the principalofficers and the individual in charge of the laboratory,5.1.2 A description of the organization managementstructure, and

Human Resources6.1 The manager of the laboratory shall be a chemist,materials analyst, or an engineer and a full-time employee ofthe organization having at least three years supervisory expe-rience in the testing of hydraulic cement; however, a per

24、sonwith equivalent science-oriented education or experience hav-ing satisfactorily directed testing of hydraulic cement is ac-ceptable.7. Testing and Additional Requirements7.1 Testing RequirementsThe organization shall have thecapability of performing tests associated with its range ofservices (see

Subcontracting8.1 Subcontracting for the performance of part or all of atest method is permitted. When subcontracting is used thequality of the work provided must be ensure

35、d. The require-ments for evaluation differ depending on the permanence of thesubcontracting.8.2 Permanent SubcontractingWhen all or a portion of atest method is subcontracted on a permanent basis then thesubcontracted organization must be subjected to separateevaluation according to this practice fo

36、r the methods subcon-tracted. The laboratory shall retain a copy of this evaluation forreview by the evaluation authority.8.3 Temporary SubcontractingWhen all or a portion of atest method is subcontracted on a temporary basis then thelaboratory shall ensure the quality of the subcontracted work.The

37、level and type of assurance will depend on the extent of thesubcontracting (see Note 3). The laboratory shall retain recordsof this assurance for review by the evaluation authority.NOTE 3Some examples of assurance for different levels of temporarysubcontracting are: (1) a review of calibrations reco

38、rds when the use of apiece of equipment is subcontracted; and (2) a satisfactory rating on aproficiency sample when a method is subcontracted. Other means ofassurance are test results from a standard reference material or, in the caseof chemical testing records of qualification testing.9. Quality Sy
