ASTM E5.01 Subcommittee

ASTM E5.01 is a subcommittee within the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) that focuses on developing standards related to the measurement and calibration of force and load in various testing applications. Essentially, they create guidelines to ensure that devices like force gauges and testing machines provide accurate and consistent force measurements. These standards help industries maintain quality, safety, and reliability in products and materials testing. By establishing best practices, ASTM E5.01 facilitates uniformity and confidence in force measurement across different laboratories and sectors.
