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.

Inspection Methods Testing Material and Component General Statement General Statement Materials and components shall be examined and tested in accordance with all the requirements listed on material and/or components properties and those referenced specifications and standards unless otherwise excluded, amended, or modified in this specification or applicable procurement documents All requirements are applicable to the sample unit.

General Statements - Conformance Category Description Detail Statements
