Darin,
for us in the field, there are no ASTM approved field tests,
the only ones I know of are tensile and spin finish that the mills
do, and today I called and asked a mill tech I know, who has been
working for the mills since the early 70s, what test they do you
described, tensile testing and only, ver-ver-ver-very rare they do
that test, like, 99.9% of the time on 99.9% of fiber, no.
so, educate me, is there another? I want to learn,
then, relate to us what we as installers and inspectors will need to
know such as performance characteristics and appearance,
Selva, the test I know about can be used in the field although they may not be ASTM approved field tests, as far as educate you, I would love to educate you but I’m not a teacher there for my opinions, ideals, or facts don’t count.
Ok how about this, I tell you what tools you will need to do the test and you call your friend and ask him what type of results will you see, The only tools you will need to do the test is a needle, so you ask your friend what results you will find with a needle.

Just talked to Darian this morning and he wanted me to let everyone know that he appreciates all of the concern and well-wishes everyone is showing him and his family.
He also said that his head is in the right place and that right now he is struggling to find work in the Jacksonville area which presently is very difficult.
He wishes all on the board well and will try and find time to post, but at present wants to stay focused on the pressing needs of his family.
He sends everyone his love...
