A little help with Specifications please... Are there any sort of industry standards which define the following tests: a. three point bend test b. four point bend test c. ball shear test d. board level torsion test I am aware of a number of internal documents at several companies for many of these. The question is: Are there any published tests that concern themselves with these kinds of tests, such as IPC, ISO, MIL, ASTM, etc.? Jim Reed, Global Commodity Quality Mgr.
