Scope and Applicability This method covers manufacture at a CN site of one declared non-cellular unreinforced industrial safety helmet configuration: receipt of complete natural or pre-coloured UV-stabilised virgin HDPE pellets, actual conditioning, single-shot screw injection moulding, cooling/ejection/trimming and controlled clean internal regrind, assembly with one compatible complete purchased suspension and actually separately supplied sweatband/chinstrap, final acceptance and unique new first quality release. Retain real packaging, storage, handling and dispatch as a linked but separately reported incremental service account for the same original cohort. This is not purchased-finished-helmet repacking. `vitoppe-helmet-manufacturing`; `jsp-evo3-spec-2016`; `ifc-plastic-products-2007` This is an explicit technical synthesis across independent first-party sources, not a common SKU, recipe, factory or contemporary order. VITOPPE establishes pellet-to-assembly operations; the historical JSP miners model illustrates an HDPE shell and suspension constituents. Its lamp bracket, optional accessories, approximate mass, packaging weight, impact figures, certificate and lifetime are not transferred. Huarong's two-shot rim case is adjacent counterevidence rather than this single-shot recipe. IFC supports non-reactive forming/environmental inventory; ILCD independently supports conditional attributional allocation. Exclude motorcycle, bicycle, sport, firefighting, military/police or ballistic helmets; bump caps and non-protective headgear; textile hats; ABS/PC or thermoset composite shells; foamed impact liners; two-shot rims; reinforcement/multilayers; thermoformed shells; external recyclate; onsite colour compounding; onsite webbing/suspension manufacture; printing/coating/applied decoration; added lamps, eyewear or earmuffs; purchased-finished-product handling. Do not hide a real extra operation behind an exclusion: review applicability and add complete atomic exchanges first. The actual producer declares acceptance requirements and applicable specifications; this document certifies no product. Mass is a manufacturing declared unit, not equivalence of protection, lifetime or service. ## 2.

Reference Flow | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | What | Complete manufacture of one declared industrial helmet configuration | | How much | 1 kg newly first-quality-released complete bare helmets | | How well | Actual drawing and declared material assembly and quality acceptance; no inferred certification or protection equivalence | | How long or cycle | One complete manufacturing campaign to first release; useful life not quantified | | reference_flow_link | first_release | | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Reference amount | 1 | | Reference product flow | Safety headgear `89f91a82-ba76-46ea-b587-e5715c72630a` | | Reference flow property | Mass `93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66` | | Reference unit group | Units of mass `93a60a57-a4c8-11da-a746-0800200c9a66` | | Reference unit | kg | | Required qualifiers | actual model and complete configuration; complete supplied HDPE grade and colour stabiliser system; single-shot non-cellular unreinforced route; purchased suspension composition and attachment compatibility; actual separate sweatband and chinstrap inclusion; acceptance drawing tests and real compliance evidence; first-release net mass and independent count; original cohort and original Q_h; opening and closing material WIP and per-exchange inherited vectors; internal regrind thermal history and genealogy; FG stock returns original delivery and incremental rework linkage; manufacturing gate and actual service interval; CN below1kV import gate and provider loss boundary; water-loop and equipment-charge inventories and actual return-water state; complete directional physical ledger for each package article; species particle size phase receiving medium and uncertainty; site period and attributional allocation situation | All qualifiers must be present in actual dataset metadata, process notes, reference description or equivalent complete consumer-visible fields. The native record establishes finished manufactured headgear at plant and Mass only; it specifies no polymer, supplier, CAS, geography, certification, lifetime or single-item weight. Its official Chinese basename is 安全头套; here the qualified article is a complete industrial helmet. Count never replaces net weighing. ## 4. Measurement and Unit Rules | rule_id | Applies to | Required property | Required unit | Rule | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | reference_mass | reference product | Mass `93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66` | kg | Q_h is uniquely new first-release complete-helmet net kg for one original cohort and configuration; collect calibrated weighing with cp_release excluding packaging and reconciling independent count. Same-cohort closing FG is already in Q_h. Only calc_reference divides attributable raw numerators once. | | count_mass_trace | reference product | Mass `93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66` | kg | No kg per helmet is prescribed. N_h is raw count trace; any additional count-based view must separately measure same-configuration net mass per helmet with configuration and weighing method, never infer it from JSP approximate mass, package weight, secondary properties or density. All present inventory uses per1kg reference flow directly rather than per-item normalisation. | | native_units | all inventory rows | Native reference property | kg; MJ | Mass 93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66 → 93a60a57-a4c8-11da-a746-0800200c9a66 → kg; electricity Net calorific value 93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200c9a66 → 93a60a57-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200c9a66 → MJ. Raw kWh converts to MJ by3.6 exactly. Preserve raw units and conversions; a secondary volume coefficient is not density. | | zero_output | all inventory rows | Raw exchange vector | raw units | Q_h=0 retains startup/shutdown, failure, idle, cleanup, rework and inherited vectors without a unit result. Integrate only real rates; integrated volume is not multiplied by time again; mass from volume needs independent substance/state density. | ## 5. System Boundary ### Boundary Abstraction | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | declared_starting_condition | Receipt of complete supplied HDPE pellets and compatible purchased suspension; upstream production and packaging scope explicit | | starting_condition_role | Raw-material/component supply gate for complete foreground shell manufacture and helmet assembly | | product_classification_scope | Narrow single-shot HDPE industrial helmet subset of CPC3.0:36971 | | recursive_input_rule | Purchased finished helmets retain original production burden and do not replace this pellet route; internal regrind and old returns retain genealogy and historical vectors | | upstream_dataset_requirement | Match complete preparations/components and actual electricity water packaging and treatment; upstream real production cannot be omitted or duplicated | | disclosure | Declare configuration site period first-release gate actual service interval all separate stock/vector ledgers and provider restrictions | | rule_id | Applies to | Rule | source_ids | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | boundary_applicability | all processes | This narrow method is only CN-site single-shot non-cellular unreinforced HDPE industrial helmet manufacture with real shell conversion then complete purchased-suspension assembly and new first-release net-mass reference. Exclude motorcycle/bicycle/sport/firefighting/military/ballistic helmets, bump caps, non-protective/textile headgear, ABS/PC/thermoset shells, foam liners, two-shot rims, reinforcement/multilayers, thermoforming, external recyclate, onsite colour compounding or component manufacture, printing/coating/decoration and added lamps/eyewear/earmuffs. Real departures require applicability review and complete recording rather than omission. Sources form an independent technical synthesis rather than one SKU/factory; JSP model weights performance certificates and life are not transferred and protection equivalence is not established. | vitoppe-helmet-manufacturing; jsp-evo3-spec-2016; huarong-helmet-case-2025 | | boundary_route | manufacture | Collect complete pellet receipt/storage/actual conditioning, screw plastication, fill/pack/cooling/ejection, gate trimming, controlled clean regrind, shell inspection, assembly with the complete purchased suspension, actual sweatband/chinstrap fitting, destructive-test samples, final acceptance and unique new first release. Retain actual machines and all failed/idle/cleanup loads. Internal intermediates cancel in the combined foreground; purchased finished helmets are not this route. | vitoppe-helmet-manufacturing; ifc-plastic-products-2007 | | boundary_formulation | hdpe_pellets; suspension; sweatband; chinstrap | A whole purchased pellet preparation or component assembly enters once with its actual upstream production. Contained pigment/stabiliser/carrier water, ratchet, straps and clips are nested composition accounts, not extra purchases. Onsite colour/chemical compounding or component manufacture is outside this defined supply route and requires explicit revised applicability and complete individual acquisitions, energy, losses and emissions. A purchase boundary must never erase real upstream production. | vitoppe-helmet-manufacturing; jsp-evo3-spec-2016; ifc-plastic-products-2007 | | boundary_release | all processes | Q_h is the positive net mass of uniquely newly first-quality-released complete helmets of one configuration and original cohort h. Include same-cohort closing FG within Q_h, never add it again as production. Count N_h is an independent reconciliation record, not a weight conversion. No new Q follows shipment, return, reinspection or repeated release of an already released article. Discarded destructive samples are losses, not released product. | ilcd-general-2010 | | boundary_carry | all processes | Keep opening/closing raw materials, every WIP/intermediate/regrind cohort, finished goods, water-loop hold-up, equipment-oil inventory and refrigerant charge as separate non-overlapping physical ledgers. Preserve quantity, composition/state and inherited upstream plus foreground vector for EACH exchange. For each cohort assign current actual resource burdens and opening-WIP history to newly completed products or genuinely unfinished closing WIP according to real work; keep failed/idle/rework burdens, never delete them as unburdened scrap. Carried burdens retain the original denominator and are not normalised again. | ilcd-general-2010 | | boundary_service | supply_services | Keep actual post-release packing, storage, handling and dispatch even for unshipped stock, separately labelled by original cohort h and observed interval. Service-gate unallocated physical mass: opening bare helmets, service-rework WIP, repair-material and water stocks + new internal release transfer + other real inward material transfers across the declared gate + gross external returns received + actual external material and water inputs = corresponding disjoint closing stocks + gross outward bare helmets + separately removed parts and other real outward material returns + wastes, effluents and measured species losses. All outlet terms are disjoint: count each parcel once whether a removed part is a Product return or Waste. Record net mass and measured moisture state at each movement; packaging has its own ledger and components already inside a returned helmet are not additional inputs. Do not output a removed part again when it is already inside whole-helmet waste. Cancel all internal transfers at the combined gate. Old cohorts retain original Q_h and complete histories; reverse corresponding original delivery attribution for real returns and attach actual incremental rework once to that original cohort. Changed physical mass after rework never resets original Q_h or creates another manufacture or allocation of inherited product. | ilcd-general-2010 | | boundary_rework | supply_services | Record a specific rework only when actual manufacturer instructions, compatible configuration and traceable acceptance evidence permit it; never presume an impacted or damaged helmet is repairable or fit for resupply. Weigh each new suspension, sweatband, chinstrap and every other actual replacement or water input as a separate atomic exchange; separately identify each removed component, liquid effluent, evaporation and other actual outlet with composition and state. Contained constituents remain subledgers. Charge actual additional upstream supply once per new purchased component and distinguish stock issues/returns from purchases. Retain the original cohort total historical vector exchange by exchange and removed-part genealogy; neither rescale/delete old burdens with changed mass nor add their contained vectors again. New material, energy, loss and treatment burdens are service increments for that same original cohort, divided only once by original Q_h through calc_reference. Missing real safety/acceptance evidence remains unresolved or leads to the appropriate treatment; it is no declaration of restored conformity. | jsp-evo3-spec-2016; ilcd-general-2010 | | boundary_utilities | all processes | The adopted electricity identity is specifically CN grid-average below1kV consumer supply. Match the actual import gate, voltage, geography and provider boundary; count upstream electricity production and distribution losses once and meter actual onsite cooling/compressed-air equipment through its electricity/water. No purchased compressed air, steam, boiler, heat source, fuel, abatement or refrigerant is presumed. Any real additional external utility or fuel requires an individual exchange and applicable production/treatment boundary. | ifc-plastic-products-2007 | | boundary_water | manufacture | Reconcile physical water-loop/equipment charge inventories independently from product/WIP and packaging. Only actual free water evaporates; non-reactive HDPE moulding creates no assumed reaction or structural water. Actual external heat-exchange water receives a separate gross received/returned parcel balance with temperatures, pressures, enthalpy and supplier water-energy ownership convention. Do not duplicate that parcel as makeup or wastewater; identify real drift, evaporation and blowdown separately. Closed-loop circulation cancels. | ifc-plastic-products-2007 | | boundary_species | manufacture | Potential n-butane, polymer dust or water vapour cards require real presence, species/form, compartment and measurement evidence. IFC Table4 describes potential releases above recommended upper processing temperature, not normal-operation rates or proof of n-butane isomer. Do not infer species mass from VOC/COD/TOC, convert an unmeasured particle-size fraction to PM2.5, or fit both unknown emissions and water from one mass residual. Add every actual missing material, preparation, species and destination as its own card before a quantitative package is complete; absence evidence differs from unknown. | ifc-plastic-products-2007 | | boundary_packaging | all processes | For EACH individual package article keep opening empty stock + package attached to WIP/FG + reusable stock + external acquisitions + external returns received = closing equivalents + package accompanying GROSS outward physical shipments + external returns sent + waste. Resin sacks and product cartons/bags/tape have separate ledgers; split stock transitions so attached and empty counts never overlap. Internal reuse cancels; it does not create another purchase, reference-helmet mass, avoided burden or automatic co-product. Physical outgoing mass is never reduced by attribution or net helmet returns. Check upstream included packaging so its manufacture is charged once while retaining physical transfers. | ilcd-general-2010 | ## 6. Process Inventory Structure ### Process Map | process_id | process_name | inclusion | inclusion_condition | role | quantitative_reference | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | manufacture | Complete shell manufacture and helmet assembly to first release | required | Complete actual route and equipment loads | Foreground production with separate auxiliary-equipment water/charge accounts | 1 kg new first release | | supply_services | Actual incremental packing storage handling and dispatch | required | Actual observed interval for original cohorts including unshipped stock | Incremental services separate from manufacture with full FG/package physical ledgers | per 1 kg reference flow | Each row is one atomic exchange. Include a conditional row only when actually present; genuine absence needs absence evidence and unknown is not zero. Collect raw unnormalised numerators first; cards and collection aggregation reference the same x_ih result from calc_reference once. Services use original-cohort Q_h and a separately labelled interval rather than putting old FG into current new Q. Any real unlisted flow, material, equipment chemical, package or species must be added individually rather than hidden as “other”. ### Process: Complete manufacture and first release (`manufacture`) #### Inputs ##### Product flows ###### Complete UV-stabilised virgin HDPE pellet formulation (`hdpe_pellets`) One complete purchased natural or pre-coloured unfilled virgin HDPE formulation, including supplied stabiliser and colour carrier. Weigh net of its sack; never purchase contained ingredients again. A generic PE identity does not establish this complete pellet formulation or safety-grade specification. No recipe or percentage is prescribed.

Native Product/Mass identity is a purchased component, Generic at plant CN, with suspension/cradle/headband-and-straps/ratchet synonyms, no CAS or composition. Its CN condition is real; it is neither a finished helmet nor proof of attachment count, supplier, approval or this configuration. Require the actual compatible assembly and its upstream burden.

Native Product flow is CN grid-average consumer supply below1kV; geography.locationOfSupply is CN. Reference Net calorific value is an energy property in MJ, not fuel mass. Do not treat it as geography-free, renewable-specific, higher-voltage, onsite generation or a transformation service. Match the actual low-voltage import gate and upstream provider; reconcile branch loads and real distribution losses once.

Record gross received mass separately from true loop makeup, with supply/return temperature pressure enthalpy and supplier water/energy convention. Do not infer steam, condensate or boiler; never charge the same parcel again as makeup. Match external_cooling_return and the independent loop-stock ledger.

Allocation and Co-product Handling | rule_id | Applies to | Rule | source_ids | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | allocation_scope | all processes | Use these rules only for declared attributional LCA in an allocation-required situation consistent with the study goal and ILCD scenario conditions. This is ILCD Situation C2, or a documented case in A/B/C1 where the required alternatives of subdivision, virtual subdivision and substitution/system expansion are impossible or infeasible under the respective scenario provisions; it is not a free choice to replace prescribed substitution. Product functional comparisons and consequential substitution are outside this manufacture dataset. A machine-supplier process case is not an allocation standard. | ilcd-general-2010 | | allocation_dedicated | all processes | First segregate dedicated moulding/assembly/test/service operations and virtually subdivide actual embodied materials and uniquely used resources to their own product/cohort. Direct meter records are preferred. Shell resin, bought suspension and failed shots belonging to one helmet campaign are not freely shared by total revenue. | ilcd-general-2010 | | allocation_causal | all processes | For remaining shared exchanges identify the determining physical causal relationship exchange by exchange, including actual energy demand, cooling duty, machine occupancy/intensity or occupied storage volume/area with duration as appropriate. Document why a proposed driver determines the exchange; throughput mass or runtime alone is not automatically valid for every exchange. Keep dedicated startup/idle/cleanup/failure loads and use real causal scope for shared downtime. | ilcd-general-2010 | | allocation_residual | all processes | Only a genuinely residual indivisible exchange without identifiable determining physical causality may use contemporaneous market values of real co-functions at the same common process gate in their actual quality, quantity, packaging and physical state. Remove product-specific later packing/transport/service value before comparing. Disclose prices, sensitivity and uncertainty; use no fixed ratio and never choose physical versus economic allocation arbitrarily. Allocated burdens across recipients sum to the original vector; physical exchanges retain full mass. | ilcd-general-2010 | | allocation_rework | all processes | Internal clean regrind retains identity, thermal history and inherited vector, and pays actual granulation/remelting losses and energy once. Rejected helmets, feed sacks, returned packaging, recovered refrigerant and saleable scrap are not automatically co-products or credits. A claimed recycling/recovery allocation needs its real joint-process, quality and next-system boundary under the declared method; otherwise preserve physical transfer and treatment obligation without an invented displacement credit. | ilcd-general-2010 | | asset_manufacture_conservation | existing capital/reusable manufacture attribution | Within the applicable allocation decision context, original manufacture burden attributed across uses of actual capital equipment or reusable articles already included in foreground production, packaging or observed services uses one persistent same-asset ledger across all crops, products, cohorts, manufacturing/postrelease services, owners and observation periods. D is its supported whole installed service: all realized historical service plus supported remaining service in the same units as actual beneficiary use u; D must be finite and positive. Period capacity, remaining-only capacity, the physical asset/article mass alone, or current-period product Q alone is not D; supported whole-service throughput in mass units may be used when it demonstrates the causal service and matches u. This does not amortize the manufactured reference product over downstream life or change its declared reference gate/Q. The fractions u/D and all previously assigned manufacture shares together must never exceed 1. Changes of window, custody, provider or repair never restart the original manufacture balance. Replacements have distinct identities and only their real new manufacture vectors; actual repair and treatment increments remain separately accounted. Revised capacity evidence requires transparent reconciliation of prior shares and sensitivity, not a fresh ledger. Keep full physical mass and stock movements independent of burden shares. Unknown D, prior shares or beneficiary coverage requires review and no final manufacture-attributed amount; no assumed lifetime, utilization, zero or arbitrary division is permitted. For each existing collection protocol that attributes manufacture of included production, packaging or observed-service assets across uses in this route (excluding amortization of the manufactured reference product itself), additionally retain a durable asset identity, its measured full physical mass and acquisition/installation/retirement stock history, original manufacture burden vector, all historical and current beneficiaries, matched-unit service readings, the evidenced whole installed-service denominator D, supported remaining-service basis and uncertainty, prior assigned shares and remaining original manufacture balance. Carry the ledger across reporting windows and custody/provider changes. Collect actual repair, replacement, recovery and treatment separately; these records do not normalize physical movements or create an additional asset purchase. These are added fields and conservation obligations for the existing applicable protocols, not a new assumed capital inventory. | | ## 8. Foreground Data Collection, Calculation, and Quality Rules ### Data Collection Protocols For each existing collection protocol that attributes manufacture of included production, packaging or observed-service assets across uses in this route (excluding amortization of the manufactured reference product itself), additionally retain a durable asset identity, its measured full physical mass and acquisition/installation/retirement stock history, original manufacture burden vector, all historical and current beneficiaries, matched-unit service readings, the evidenced whole installed-service denominator D, supported remaining-service basis and uncertainty, prior assigned shares and remaining original manufacture balance. Carry the ledger across reporting windows and custody/provider changes. Collect actual repair, replacement, recovery and treatment separately; these records do not normalize physical movements or create an additional asset purchase. These are added fields and conservation obligations for the existing applicable protocols, not a new assumed capital inventory. Collect and preserve all raw unnormalised observations, stocks and historical vectors first. The aggregation_rule cell labels only the destination basis of the final reported result; it performs no collection-stage division. calc_raw handles unit conversion, calc_attribution handles real attribution and inherited vectors, and calc_reference alone executes A_ih/Q_h once. Every card x_ih and aggregation refers to that stored result without a further division. The first-release row's1kg is the declared reference quantity rather than another collection or calculation. | protocol_id | process_id | flow_role | record_type | raw_fields | collection_method | unit | frequency | temporal_coverage | site_scope | aggregation_rule | quality_evidence | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | cp_release | manufacture | first_release;

Integrated volume is already a total; integrate only an actual rate. A kg conversion from volume uses independently measured substance-specific density and state. Electricity kWh to MJ uses3.6 exactly. Preserve raw values and conversions. | raw_measurements; unit_conversions; density_state | raw_row_totals | ifc-plastic-products-2007 | | calc_attribution | all inventory rows | Determine each unnormalised A_ih from raw_row_totals plus inherited exchange vectors at the declared cohort gate. Reconcile opening/closing materials and WIP; retain failed/idle/cleanup/rework loads; split dedicated then causal/residual shared exchanges under section7. Keep FG/service and equipment-water-charge ledgers non-overlapping. Inherited histories stay in original units and original Q_h; no second division or deletion with waste. | raw_row_totals; inherited_exchange_vectors; stock_ledgers; allocation_records | A_ih | ilcd-general-2010 | | calc_reference | all inventory rows | x_ih = A_ih / Q_h for Q_h >0; A_ih is the attributable raw exchange numerator for original cohort h; Q_h is its unique first-release net kg. Execute this sole reporting division once. All cards and protocol aggregations reference the same x_ih. Q_h=0 retains raw burdens without a unit result; reference first_release is1kg. Service results retain the original cohort Q_h and labelled actual interval separately. | A_ih; Q_h; cp_release; cp_fg | x_ih | ilcd-general-2010 | | calc_physical | all processes | Before allocation, manufacturing physical gate: opening raw materials and bare WIP plus separate loop/oil/refrigerant stocks plus actual external material inputs = unique new first release Q_h plus closing raw materials and bare WIP plus corresponding closing loop/charge stocks plus each actual external product return, waste and species emission. Q_h already includes this cohort closing FG and that FG is not added again. Packaging balances separately by article and is excluded from bare product/WIP mass; energy is not a mass term. Use boundary_service for the FG gate and cancel internal transfers at the combined gate. Reconcile relevant elements independently using measured composition; preserve discrepancies and uncertainty. Service repair separately retains real additions, removed parts, species and moisture changes; service-rework WIP and repair-material/water stocks never overlap manufacturing WIP. Do not force unchanged repaired mass from the original helmet mass. | cp_material; cp_release; cp_water; cp_aux; cp_species; cp_waste; cp_fg; cp_feed_packaging; cp_packaging | unallocated_physical_balances | ifc-plastic-products-2007; ilcd-general-2010 | | asset_manufacture_share | existing capital/reusable manufacture attribution | For each included original asset manufacture vector B, f_current = u_current / D only after the persistent ledger verifies the supported whole installed-service denominator, all beneficiaries and prior assigned shares. Attribute f_current * B once to the actual beneficiary before the existing single reference normalization. Check prior_shares + all current/new beneficiary shares <= 1; carry the remaining original balance. Capacity revisions reconcile the historical ledger. Full physical asset/packaging mass and actual gross stocks/returns never receive f_current. Unknown D or history leaves the final attributed result unavailable, without suppressing actual repair/replacement/service burdens. | asset_id; original_B; u_current; D; historical_beneficiaries; prior_shares; capacity_evidence | conserved attributed manufacture vector | | ### Data Quality Requirements | requirement_id | Applies to | Requirement | Evidence | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | dq_identity | all inventory rows | Supply actual physical identity, native restrictions and provider-boundary match; distinguish ordinary auxiliary UUID gaps from missing endpoint/route/basis. | complete native records; supplier specifications; applicability decision | | dq_coverage | all processes | Cover full campaign including zero output and actual service interval; preserve old cohorts and every inherited exchange vector and denominator. | complete records; genealogy; stock and vector reconciliation | | dq_measurement | all inventory rows | Retain calibration, unit/state conversions, raw data, missingness, non-detects and uncertainty; never replace an unknown with a model-specific public default. | calibration; raw records; conversion and uncertainty files | | dq_no_approval | first_release | Declare actual configuration/drawing/quality criteria and available independent test evidence. Literature examples and engineering validation do not approve compliance or science. | drawing; acceptance basis; actual tests; explicit limitations | ## 9. Validation Rules | rule_id | Applies to | Rule | source_ids | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | validate_identity | all inventory rows | Confirm each real article/preparation/species and boundary before binding a UUID. Retain every native name qualifier, supplied form, CAS, route, geography in the complete flowInformation, type, reference-property index and all secondary properties; a name/classification hit is insufficient. Product/Waste/Elementary and air/media distinctions remain separate. Unbound auxiliaries keep precise atomic identities and supplier evidence requirements. | ifc-plastic-products-2007 | | validate_reference | first_release | Require the actual complete helmet configuration and first-release mass trace with independent count reconciliation; unassembled shell or suspension cannot be the terminal reference. Actual quality/certification evidence belongs to the data producer. No public example mass, joules, package count, supplier assertion or another model certificate establishes this article's compliance or lifetime. | jsp-evo3-spec-2016; vitoppe-helmet-manufacturing | | validate_balance | all processes | Reconcile total mass and relevant element inventories independently from measured chemical speciation. Keep non-overlapping material/WIP, FG, water-loop, equipment-charge and each packaging ledger. At manufacture Q already contains new closing FG; at the service gate retain gross shipments and returns; at the combined gate cancel internal transfers. Explain uncertainty rather than forcing closure with an invented species, reaction water or loss ratio. | ifc-plastic-products-2007; ilcd-general-2010 | | validate_raw_once | all inventory rows | Retain raw meter/weighing records and original units, convert real rates/integrated volumes correctly, allocate the raw exchange vector, and apply calc_reference exactly once. Collection aggregation and card amounts only reference that same result. Preserve original Q_h for every old cohort and inherited vector; Q_h=0 retains real burdens but produces no unit result. Engineering checks do not establish science, translation or actual-factory approval. | ilcd-general-2010 | | validate_complete | all processes | Before a quantitative dataset is complete resolve actual missing operations, supplied formulations, auxiliaries, output destinations, species/compartments, historical vectors and uncertainty. Do not mark a real unknown as zero or exclude it to satisfy a checker. Core endpoint/route/basis failure blocks applicability; an auxiliary UUID gap alone does not change the method into a different product. | ifc-plastic-products-2007 | | validate_asset_manufacture_conservation | existing capital/reusable manufacture attribution | For every included capital/reusable manufacture attribution verify same-asset continuity, whole installed service in matched units, all historical/current beneficiaries, prior assigned manufacture shares and cumulative share <= 1. Reject a reset by period, cohort, provider, owner or repair. Check distinct real replacement and incremental repair/treatment vectors separately and preserve gross physical mass. A missing denominator, unexplained previous allocation or incomplete beneficiary ledger requires explicit review and an unavailable final attributed amount; structural inspection cannot claim empirical completeness. | | ## 10.
