reading taken during a consecutive burning time period of fifty-five
(55) seconds, min. (Destructive Test)
4.5.7 Safety clip assembly spring test. The safety clip
assembly shall be placed on the test gage and allowed to remain
there for the required time. At the end of the test period, the

4.5.9 Determination of composition
4.5.9.1 Intermediate charge and first composition.
In lieu of
making an analysis of each batch of intermediate charge or first
fire composition, as applicable, a batch record shall be prepared
for each batch produced for production use. This batch record shall
be used to demonstrate the actual amounts of each ingredient used to
make the batch as specified on the applicable drawing. In addition
to recording composition of the batch, the batch record shall also
be used to record and control curing time for mixtures as necessary
prior to loading. A batch of composition shall be the amount of
composition used during a single work shift by a single employee or
crew. The batch may contain one or more mixes. When more than one
mix is used in a batch, the exact proportion of ingredients shall be
measured into each mix.
