                1) Specimen orientation at the option of the manufacturer unless otherwise specified in the order.

                No more than one value below the specified miniminum average energy but no less than 70% of the specfied minimum average energy value.

                Minimum average energy for full-size specimens. Refer to ABS Rules for sub-size specimen energy requirements.
