FOREWORD ABOUT ASTM STANDARDS
If you have read part 1 of this page, ASTM has more than 12,000 thousand standards. On this website are mainly steel pipes, steel Castings and Forgings and other steel components for Piping Applications discussed, which fall under the ASTM standards. For each of these categories you will find a short summary of what in that standard is defined.
The standards themselves may not be freely distributable in public, and therefore, I can give you only information, what you can expect from a standard.
