A new ASTM International standard will help with pressure testing certain containers that are used to transport hazardous materials. The standard will help meet requirements of entities that regulate and support global trade. According to ASTM International member Larry Anderson, current regulations are limited in describing how to perform such a test. Specifically, the new test method provides…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, James Farrell, tel +1.610.832.9661; jfarrell@astm.org Release #10526
