Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Cahier des Charges Normalis' pour Fil de Cuivre Demi-croui: Texte Adopt' par la Soci't' Am'ricaine d'Essai des Mat'riaux, Revis' en 1915
This publication is one of a series covering industrial standards for materials, which will include standards prepared by the Government and by technical societies and other organizations. The purpose of this series is to facilitate commerce between the United States and foreign countries by gathering together and making available standards for materials of various kinds, commercially acceptable and representing good American practice, through their translation into various foreign languages. In most cases such standards are the result of compromise. Their publication in this series is an indication that they are working standards, subject, however, to amendment as new scientific data are obtained. It is appreciated that the development of an ideal standard of quality usually requires service experience and experimental researches on each detail of the standard. In such work standardizing institutions, technical societies, individual investigators, and industrial laboratories cooperate in developing a true standard of quality.
