3、s to assess their conformance to specifications.Two or more measurement results obtained byperforming the same test method for the same property of a specific sample usually will not benumerically identical.Therefore,the test methods generally include a paragraph on the precision ofresults.This prec
4、ision(or,a more appropriate term is imprecision)is an expression of the degree ofagreement that can be expected between the aforementioned measurements.Many difficulties that arise in assessing conformance to specifications are due to test imprecision.Because of this,a true value of a property can n
5、ever be determined exactly;and it is necessary to inferfrom measured values the range within which the“true value”is likely to lie.The main purpose of thispractice is to indicate how test imprecision should be interpreted relative to specification limit values.1.Scope*1.1 This practice covers guidel
6、ines and statistical method-ologies with which two parties(see Note 1)can compare andcombine independently obtained test results to obtain anAssigned Test Value(ATV)for the purpose of resolving adispute over product property conformance with specification.NOTE1Application of this practice is usually
7、,but not limited to,between supplier and receiver of a product.1.2 This practice defines a technique for establishing anAcceptance Limit(AL)and Assigned Test Value(ATV)toresolve the dispute over a property conformance with specifi-cation by comparing the ATV to the AL.1.3 This practice applies only
8、to those test methods whichspecifically state that the repeatability and reproducibilityvalues conform to the definitions herein.1.4 The statistical principles and methodology outlined inthis practice can also be used to obtain an ATV for specificationconformance decision when multiple results are o
