Prescribes the requirements for metric capacity measures of cylindrical and conical shapes. It is intended for use by manufacturers in manufacturing Metric Capacity Measures thus ensuring all measures of a specified type and capacity will have the same dimensions. These measures are intended for use in normal commercial transactions and are for use in measuring liquids only. 7p. (Price Code B)

This standard specifies inter alia conversion factors to be used in converting quantities measured in Imperial to SI and other units. It sets out procedures for the uniform use for these conversion factors. It is intended for use in everyday operations in government commerce, industry, education certain branches of technology and sport.

This standard sets out general requirements for the contents of advertising, shown or consumed in Caricom Member States, in any medium, whether foreign or locally generated. It also prescribes additional requirements for the following types of advertisements: advertisements of specific classes of goods or services, advertising directed to specific categories of consumers, and advertisements in certain media. This standard also prescribes requirements for the manner of presentation of advertisements.

This standard specifies guidelines which would prevent the arousal of high expectations which would lead to disappointment, or cause conflict with parental decisions.

This standard prescribes the wording of a warning notice and its presentation to the consumers in advertisements for cigarettes on television, radio, press, posters and other media of communication. It also covers the requirements for the advertising of other tobacco products. Certain types of promotional materials and advertisements are excluded (See 3.7).

This specification covers rigid PVC and CPVC compounds intended for general purpose use in extruded or molded form, including piping applications involving special chemical and acid resistance or heat resistance, composed of poly(vinyl chloride), chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride), or vinyl chloride copolymers containing at least 80 % vinyl chloride, and the necessary compounding ingredients. The compounding ingredients may consist of lubricants, stabilizers, non-poly(vinyl chloride) resin modifiers, pigments, and inorganic fillers. Note 1—Selection of specific compounds for particular end uses or applications requires consideration of other characteristics such as thermal properties, optical properties, weather resistance, etc. Specific requirements and test methods for these properties shall be by mutual agreement between the purchaser and the seller.

This specification covers joints for plastic pipe systems intended for drain, and gravity sewerage pipe at internal or external pressures less than 25-ft head using flexible watertight elastomeric seals. this specification is intended to cover test requirements, test methods, and acceptable materials. the test methods described for the joints are not intended to be routine quality control tests but to be reliability or performance requirements.

This test method describes two essentially equivalent procedures: one for obtaining a long-term hydrostatic strength category based on stress, referred to herein as the hydrostatic design basis (HDB); and the other for obtaining a long-term hydrostatic strength category based on pressure, referred to herein as the pressure design basis (PDB). The HDB is based on the material's long-term hydrostatic strength (LTHS),and the PDB is based on the product's long-term hydrostatic pressure-strength (LTHSP).
