1.1This practice is intended to assist the various technical committees in the use of uniform methods of indicating the number of digits which are to be considered significant in specification limits, for example, specified maximum values and specified minimum values. Its aim is to outline methods which should aid in clarifying the intended meaning of specification limits with which observed values or calculated test results are compared in determining conformance with specifications.
1.2This practice is intended to be used in determining conformance with specifications when the applicable ASTM specifications or standards make direct reference to this practice.
1.3Reference to this practice is valid only when a choice of method has been indicated, that is, either absolute method or rounding method.
1.4The system of units for this practice is not specified.Dimensional quantities in the practice are presented only as illustrations of calculation methods.The examples are not binding on products or test methods treated.
1.5This 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 and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
