Standards and Compliance

EPIC-SC-01 lists every normative document that bears on an EPIC installation, states EPIC's standing against it and names the evidence held for it. It is written as the first document to hand a specifier, an authority reviewer or a pre-qualification desk on an EPIC scheme.

Part B names the laboratory load test reports (Construction Materials Engineers Inc., 2018, and American Engineering Testing, 2009), the durability sources behind the service-life position, and the standards an installation is designed and specified to: ASTM D2412, AASHTO H-20, HS-25 and LRFD HL-93, ASTM D2321, ASTM D3350, ASTM C136, ASTM D2434, ASTM D7465 and AASHTO M288. It closes with wording for a project specification.
