PE signed test results
(OP)
If a test in a lab is run is it valid if it is NOT signed by a Professional Engineer?
For instance if a lab runs ASTM E1886 / E1996 for windows exposed to high winds and impact protective systems, can they justify an answer without a PE?

Usually testing in labs is not "engineering" in my area.
