General Statements - Inspection Methods Category Description Detail Statements

Inspection Methods Material General Statement General Statement Finished material shall be inspected in accordance with the inspection methods specified and those referenced specifications and standards unless otherwise excluded, amended, or modified in this specification or applicable procurement documents

Inspection Methods Visual Examination General Statement General Statement The end item shall be examined for defects in color, shade, design, material, finish, construction, workmanship, marking, and the defects shall be classified in accordance with the list of defects.

Inspection Methods Yard by Yard Examination General Statement General Statement Each roll or spool in the sample shall be examined yard-by yard on the face side or face and back as deemed necessary for defects. The defects shall be defined in ASTM D3990 and only defects that are clearly noticeable at normal inspection distance (3 feet) shall be scored. Each roll or spool in the sample shall also be examined for shade variation during the yard-by-yard examination. Any roll or spool in the sample containing uneven shade or shade variation side to side, side to center, or end to end, shall be cause for rejection of entire lot represented by the sample.

General Statements - Conformance Category Description Detail Statements

Conformance Inspection Material and Component Acceptance Criteria The lot shall be unacceptable if the number of defects exceeds the Acceptable Quality Limits (AQL) or the failure of any test.

Conformance Inspection Material and Component Sampling Unless otherwise specified in subsidiary specifications, referenced documents, or procurement documents material and component sampling shall be (2) sample units for lots 800 yards of less, (3) sample units for lots 801 yards to 22,000 yards and (4) sample units for lots over 22,000 yards. For material testing, the sample unit shall be 5 continuous yards full width of the finished cloth for all physical and chemical tests.

Conformance Inspection Requirement General Statement Samples shall be subjected to Conformance inspections for compliance with design, configuration, workmanship, dimensional and testing requirements. Conformance inspection shall consist of the inspection methods, examinations and tests specified.
