ASTM C1156-95e1 - 1.1.1995
 
1. Scope

1.1 This guide provides the basis for establishing calibration for a measurement method typically used in an analytical chemistry laboratory analyzing nuclear materials. Guidance is included for such activities as preparing a calibration procedure, selecting a calibration standard, controlling calibrated equipment, and documenting calibration. The guide is generic and any required technical information specific for a given method must be obtained from other sources.

1.2 The guidance information is provided in the following sections:

Section General Considerations 5 Calibration Procedure 6 Calibration Standard 7 Control of Calibrated Equipment 8 Documentation 9 Keywords 10

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
