In a quest for lighter, more crash-resistant and fuel-efficient vehicles, the automobile and steel industries are developing steel sheets that have higher alloy content, and thus more complex hardening mechanisms, than sheets currently being used. The sheets, known generally as advanced high-strength steels, are covered by a new ASTM International standard, ASTM A1079 , Specification for Steel…, ASTM Committee A05 Next Meeting:, Nov. 11-13, November Committee Week, Atlanta, Ga., Technical Contact:, Gary Dallin, GalvInfo Center, International Zinc Association, Burlington, Ontario, Canada, Phone: 905-315-7443; gdallin@cogeco.ca, ASTM Staff Contact:, Kristy Straiton, Phone: 610-832-9640; kstraiton@astm.org, ASTM PR Contact:, Barbara Schindler, Phone: 610-832-9603; bschindl@astm.org R elease #9304

In many testing laboratories, it can be necessary to qualify a new test method, instrument or lab itself with respect to one or more performance characteristics. One such key characteristic is bias, or mutual agreement of average test results run on the same material. A proposed ASTM standard will aid in the determination of bias equivalency. ASTM WK37659 , Guide for Testing for Bias Equivalency…
