Abstract
Standardization activities in the United States for continuous fiber-reinforced ceramic composites (CFCCs) are reviewed. This brief review focuses on the development of test standards by subcommittee C28.07 of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) on the drafting of a section of a design code for ceramic and ceramic matrix composite components as part of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, and on the development of a set of volumes on ceramic matrix composites for Military Handbook 17 on composites. The participation of the US in the international harmonization of standards for CFCCs is also reviewed.
