Standards allow for interchangeability of parts, system interoperability, and they ensure quality, reliability and safety. The MSOE library maintains records of all MSOE students and employees who obtain a copy of a standard from the library. Relying on its highly skilled staff, the Library encourages innovation, capitalizes on appropriate technologies, forges effective partnerships and aggressively promotes excellence. Check the library's catalog to see if we have a resource available in print. Collection of standards and technical engineering information. The library has electronic access to some codes and standards. Download Includes ANSI standards. American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Specifications have a more limited range of application than standards and generally establish requirements for materials, products, or services. ASME standards deal with every possible element of mechanical engineering from boilers They are used to establish baselines or a minimum level of performance and quality control to ensure that optimal conditions and procedures for the purpose of creating compatibility with products and services from different periods and a range of sources. Some standards are government-mandated, and others are voluntary. All in one Standards introduction. What are some points to remember when using standards? Mechanical engineering and related drawings shall be created in millimetres. Indexes all of the standards published by the American Society of Testing and Materials. If you continue with this browser, you may see unexpected results. Standards and specifications may be issued by voluntary technical or trade associations, professional societies, national standards bodies, government agencies, or by international organizations. The Engineering Library DOES NOT maintain historical or superceded standards. In support of MSOE educational and academic activities, the MSOE library will attempt to obtain copies of requested standards for current students and current employees of MSOE. ISO has over 19,500 standards covering aspects of technology and business. Contains citations to technical papers, standards and other materials published by SAE. NFPA offers read-only access to their codes and standards. If you would like to request the library purchase a standard, please email us with the details. This website works best with modern browsers such as the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. The IEC produces standards and other publications for electrical, electronic, and related technologies. Standards published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). It is usually a formal document that establishes uniform engineering or technical criteria, methods, processes and practices. For more information view the Off-Campus Access Guide.
