   1.2	minutes shall be between 0 and 59 inclusive.
   1.3	seconds shall be between 0 and 60; that is, 0.0 <= seconds < 60.0.

2. For <Absolute Time Interval> and <Relative Time>,

   2.1	delta_hours shall be between 0 and 23 inclusive.
   2.2	delta_minutes shall be between 0 and 59 inclusive.
   2.3	delta_seconds shall be between 0 and 60, that is, 0 <= seconds < 60.0.

3. For <Relative Time Interval>,

   3.1	delta_start_hours shall be between 0 and 23 inclusive, and delta_stop_hours shall be between 0 and 23 inclusive.
   3.1	delta_start_minutes and delta_stop_minutes shall each be between 0 and 59 inclusive.
   3.1	delta_start_seconds and delta_stop_seconds shall each be between 0 and 60; that is, 0 <= seconds < 60.0.

Rationale

Any values for hour greater than 23 should be expressed in days.

Any values for minutes greater than 59 should be expressed in hours.

Any values for seconds greater than or equal to 60 should be expressed in minutes.
