Significance and Use4.1 This test method provides measurements that can beused to describe the bulk properties of a powder or granularmaterial.4.2 The measurements can be combined with practicalexperience to provide relative rankings of variou

18、s forms ofbulk handling behavior of powders and granular materials fora specific application.NOTE 1The quality of the result produced by this standard isdependent on the competence of the personnel performing it, and thesuitability of the equipment and facilities used. Agencies that meet thecriteria

19、 of Practice D 3740 are generally considered capable of competentand objective testing/sampling/inspection/etc. Users of this standard arecautioned that compliance with Practice D 3740 does not in itself assurereliable results. Reliable results depend on many factors; Practice D 3740provides a means

20、 of evaluating some of those factors. Practice D 3740 wasdeveloped for agencies engaged in the testing or inspection (or both) ofsoil and rock. As such it is not totally applicable to agencies performingthis standard. However, users of this standard should recognize that theframework of Practice D 3

21、740 is appropriate for evaluating the quality ofan agency performing this standard. Currently there is no known quali-fying national authority that inspects agencies that perform this standard.5.
