ASTM International’s light sport aircraft committee ( F37 ) has approved a new standard that addresses aeroelasticity requirements of light sport aircraft. Aeroelasticity refers to the interaction of aerodynamic, inertial, and elastic forces that emerge during the relative movement of air and aircraft. According to ASTM member Rian Johnson, the new specification ( F3619 ) defines the standards…, Media Inquiries:, Gavin O’Reilly, tel +1.610.832.9618; goreilly@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Joe Koury, tel +1.610.832.9804; jkoury@astm.org Release #11642 ###

ASTM International’s performance of buildings committee ( E06 ) has developed a new test method for moisture in insulating glass. The test method introduced in this standard, currently known as WK83631 , will measure moisture ingress into insulating glass, and allow for predicting window lifetimes. Insulated glass is often used in residential and industrial locations to maintain heat and humidity…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Frank McConnell, tel +1.610.832.9686; fmcconnell@astm.org Release #11582 ###

A proposed standard will be used to support the periodic assessment of cavity wall facades. ASTM’s committee on the performance of buildings (E06) is developing the standard. In cavity wall facades, a grid of wall ties provides lateral restraint between the exterior veneer and the back-up wall. The proposed guide will support stability assessments of such facades. According to ASTM member Michael…
