Scope1.1 This specification covers the requirements for silveredflat glass mirrors of rectangular shape supplied as cut sizes,stock sheets or as lehr ends and to w

3、hich no further processing(such as edgework or other fabrication) has been done.1.2 This specification covers the quality requirements ofsilvered annealed monolithic clear and tinted flat glass mirrorsup to 6 mm (14 in.) thick. The mirrors are intended to be usedindoors for mirror glazing, for compo

4、nents of decorativeaccessories or for similar uses.1.3 This specification does not address safety glazing ma-terials nor requirements for mirror applications. Consult modelbuilding codes and other applicable standards for safetyglazing applications.1.4 Mirrors covered in this specification are not i

44、hods7.1 Visual InspectionAll visual inspections shall be madewith 20/20 vision (naked eye or corrected). Place samples inthe vertical position at the distance specified in the sectionsfollowing. Unless otherwise specified in the sections below, theviewer shall inspect the reflective surface of the s

46、lar BlemishesFrom a distance of approximately1m(39in.) the viewer shall inspect the mirror. If a blemish is detected,measure in accordance with 7.1.1.1 and refer to Table 3 andTable 4 for evaluation criteria.7.1.1.1 Point Blemishes MeasurementPoint blemish sizeshall be determined by measuring the ma

47、ximum length andperpendicular width of the blemish (including associateddistortion) and calculating the average of the two dimensions(Length + Width) / 2). To determine the dimensions of theassociated distortion of an inclusion, examine the reflectionsfrom the glass surface and from the silvered sur

48、face, of a gridof6mm(14 in.) wide parallel black lines, separated by 6 mm(14 in) gaps. The grid shall be about 2 m from the glass underinspection, and parallel to its surface. The limit of the size ofthe associated distortion is the location on the glass where the2 reflections of one line separate f

49、rom each other.
