ASTM International’s composite materials committee ( D30 ) is developing a proposed standard that will help define the test methods and specimens that should be used for bolted joint related properties. Many composite structures are assembled with mechanically fastened (“bolted”) joints. Structural analysis of these attachments requires a linked set of design properties that are generated by…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Melissa Marcinowski, tel +1.610.832.9626; mmarcinowski@astm.org Release #11569 ###

ASTM International’s forensic sciences committee ( E30 ) has developed a new standard that will be used by forensic experts to determine the minerals within geological material. The new standard will soon be published as E3294. ASTM International member Libby Stern notes that soils and other geological material that are being tested as trace evidence are often too small to be tested by…

ASTM International’s forensic sciences committee ( E30 ) has approved three new standards that will aid the study of explosives in forensic investigations. The suite of standards, which cover terminology, intact explosives, and explosive residues, were developed by E30’s subcommittee on criminalistics (E30.01). Forensic scientists, students, trainees, and those involved in legal matters will be…
