ASTM B117 Revisions

Hello,

We currently have a copy of ASTM B117"-94", and I need to know if there are any substantial differences in the latest revision "-07a"). Can anyone please let me know what major changes there have been from -94 to -07a?

Thanks,

You have an awful lot of faith in humanity. The difference is that you use a left handed scribe instead of a right handed scribe. Never mind, it would be better to purchase a copy of the new rev so you don't get screwed later on and have to say "I can't remember who it was but somebody told me to change________________"(Fill in the blank). Keep it civil! :-)

Trust no one on the internet! buy a copy of the current spec. You need one on hand for the visiting inspectors anyway.
