Main characteristics |
Pass/Fail (6 samples submitted to bending at 90° and 180° with 3 different mandrels of increasing severity: 4t - 2,5t - 1,6t, 2 samples per mandrel) |
||||||||||
Format of the test results: |
For results expressed as Yes/No type, samples are submitted to tests by sets of 2 items, with increasing severity, so that cut-off conditions for failure can be determined. The assessment of the results of participants is achieved by reference to this cut-off. |

|
|
||||||||||
Determination of the assigned values (“true values” for each characteristic) |
By statistical computation of the totality of the results with possible selection on competence criteria (accreditation, validation by a reference body, quantity of tests performed in the year), test to detect possible collusion, merging of results not obtained in reproductibility conditions, suppression of technically unvalid results. |
