SECTION C - GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

C.1 METRIC SYSTEM OF MEASUREMENT

Section 5164 of the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act (Pub. L. 100-418) established that the metric system of measurement was the preferred system of weights and measures for trade and commerce in the United States. Executive order 12770 directed Federal agencies to comply with the Act by converting regulatory standards to the metric system after September 30, 1992. In a Final Rule published on March 15, 1990 (60 FR 13639), NHTSA completed the first phase of metrication, converting English measurements in several regulatory standards to the metric system. Since then, metrication has been applied to other regulatory standards (63 FR 28912).

Therefore if a testing laboratory has any test equipment which is required to execute this test that cannot provide direct measurement in metric units, the test laboratory shall calculate the exact metric equivalent by means of a conversion factor carried out to at least five significant digits before rounding consistent with the specified metric requirement.

All test reports and injury data are required to include metric measurements for standards using metrication.

NOTE: The methodology for rounding measurement in the test reports shall be made in accordance with ASTM E29-13, “Standard Practice for Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with Specifications.”
