AWPA E10 | Laboratory method for evaluating the decay resistance of wood-based materials against pure basidiomycete cultures: Soil/block test |
WDMA TM 6-14 | Adhesive Durability: Test method for determining the durability of adhesives used in doors under accelerated aging conditions |
NWWDA TM-2 | Test method to determine the water-repellent effectiveness of treating formulations (swellometer test) |
ASTM Tests | Standard test methods for: |
