ASTM D7379/D7379M-08(2021)
(Test Method)Standard Test Methods for Strength of Modified Bitumen Sheet Material Laps Using Cold Process Adhesive
Standard Test Methods for Strength of Modified Bitumen Sheet Material Laps Using Cold Process Adhesive
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
3.1 These tests are useful in sampling and testing combinations of modified bitumen sheet materials used with cold-applied adhesives.
SCOPE
1.1 These test methods cover the procedure for sampling and testing the strength of laps formed with adhesive used with polymer-modified bituminous sheet materials.
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
