This part of ISO 16269 describes procedures for establishing tolerance intervals that include at least a
specified proportion of the population with a specified confidence level. Both one-sided and two-sided
statistical tolerance intervals are provided, a one-sided interval having either an upper or a lower limit while a
two-sided interval has both upper and lower limits. Two methods are provided, a parametric method for the
case where the characteristic being studied has a normal distribution and a distribution-free method for the
case where nothing is known about the distribution except that it is continuous.
