1.1 This guide summarizes the application of ASTM standardtest methods (and other supporting standards) tocontinuous-fiber reinforced polymer matrix composite materials.The most commonly used or most applicable ASTMstandards are included, emphasizing use of standards of CommitteeD30 on Composite Materials.1.2 This guide does not cover all possible standards thatcould apply to polymer matrix composites and restricts discussionto the documented scope. Commonly used but nonstandardindustry extensions of test method scopes, such asapplication of static test methods to fatigue testing, are notdiscussed. A more complete summary of general compositetesting standards, including non-ASTM test methods, is includedin the Composite Materials Handbook (CMH-17).2Additional specific recommendations for testing textile (fabric,braided) composites are contained in Guide D6856.1.3 This guide does not specify a system of measurement;the systems specified within each of the referenced standardsshall apply as appropriate. Note that the referenced standardsof ASTM Committee D30 are either SI-only or combined-unitstandards with SI units listed first.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriatesafety, health, and environmental practices and determinethe applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accordancewith internationally recognized principles on standardizationestablished in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards, Guides and Recommendationsissued by the World Trade Organization TechnicalBarriers to Trade (TBT) Committee
