SPECIFICATIONS

FOREWORD TO FIRST EDITION ISSUED IN 1925 By Herbert Hoover

Specifications are the formulated, definite, and complete statements of what the buyer

requires of the seller. They must be adapted to the best practice of production and distri- bution. Their formulation requires the services of chemists, physicists, engineers, and whatnot. But beyond this it requires something that has too often been neglected, and that is the added experience of the manufacturer, the producer, and the user. No economy is to be obtained by formulating such a specification for an article as will require that it be specially manufactured when an article largely produced for commercial consumption will give equal service, or by the setting up of such requirements as will necessitate increased

cost of production without compensation in service. At the beginning of the present administration the Department of Commerce insti- tuted a review of Federal purchasing specifications with a view to a better formulation of standards, simplifications, and more accurate presentation of specifications in Federal purchases, in cooperation with committees from the various industries. Upon the erection of the Bureau of the Budget a Federal Specifications Board was created under the budgetary

powers, members of the Department of Commerce acting as chairman and secretary, and

a membership representing the different departments of the Government. The Federal

Specifications Board has had under review Federal specifications, and in the formulation

of such specifications has not only made the necessary scientific investigations, using the

facilities of the National Bureau of Standards and other Government laboratories, but has

called into consultation representatives of the manufacturing industries concerned in order

that Government purchases should be properly adapted to the manufacturing processes and normal stocks and materials of the country. A very considerable amount of economy

has been effected in the purchase of Federal Government supplies by these methods and

their better adaptation to commercial practice. The State purchasing agencies have from time to time sought the assistance of the de- partment in the formulation of standards, specifications, and methods of tests for their purchases. "With the approval of the State governors I called a conference of the purchasing

agents of the States on May 25, 1923, to ascertain in what way the department could best be of service to the public purchasers in connection with the formulation, selection, or unification of specifications and in the development of methods of testing. This conference ex- pressed its approval of the proposal of the department to review the specifications in use and to formulate and issue a handbook or encyclopedia for the use of public purchasing

agents covering the entire field of standards, specifications, simplifications, and tests which may be determined as the best adapted for public purchases, the publication in each instance

to be formulated in consultation with the different agencies particularly concerned. With a view to the better organization of all of the public purchasing agencies and the establishment of cooperation with the technical and scientific bodies of the country, to- gether with the experience of other large buyers and of manufacturing representatives there was created an advisory board, the members of which are official representatives of 14 lead- ing national organizations interested in the preparation and unification of specifications. Our engineering and professional societies, especially the American Society for Testing

Materials, and the Society of Automotive Engineers have been long engaged, as has more

recently the American Engineering Standards Committee,1 in the preparation and stand ard- Now the American Standards Association. 1

ization of certain types of specifications; our university laboratories, our great industrial

laboratories, the engineers in our large industries, have for years been developing specifi- cations in a great multitude of materials. Many of these specifications have lain dormant

for lack of use by the consumer in his demands upon the producer. Others of them have not had applied to them the test of commercial experience in production. It is our purpose to adopt whatever is good, to put it under review as to its practical application, and, as we have

done hitherto, to call in the expert manufacturer and producer for his cooperation and

advice. The direct purpose of any wise cooperative effort in the adoption of specifications is thus to secure constructive application of scientific knowledge to service requirements; to coordinate similar demands and eliminate unessential differences; to balance increases in cost against probable service improvements, taking full advantage of existing commercial

varieties; and to formulate adequate test or inspection methods—all this resulting in the development of greatly improved products, vital support to the national movement toward

simplification of fines, processes, and business practices, and marked lowering of costs and

prices. When such a cooperative undertaking combines Federal, State, and municipal

groups, as in the present instance, we have the additional advantages of the unequaled facilities of Government laboratories in investigation; the broadcasting, with Government approval, of many little known but excellent specifications developed by private industries; the prestige of Government specifications leading to wide voluntary adoption in commerce; and the unification of demand in vast purchases with incalculable benefit in raising and

stabilizing the quality of American production.

INTRODUCTION

This publication is a revised edition of the National Directory of Commodity Specifications, first published in 1925. In it will be found listed the standards and specifications of trade associations, technical societies, and organizations that are representative in a

national way of industry or some branch of industry, as well as the standards and specifica- tions of governmental agencies that represent the Federal Government as a whole. It

is a compilation of current nationally recognized specifications. The same decimal system of classification of commodities has been used in this edition

as was used with the first edition, some minor changes and additions being made to take

care of new material. The classification system used tends to throw together specifications and standards

relating to the same subjects so that specification-making bodies may take note of or be

forewarned of duplication of material. Moreover, a special effort has been made to increase the usefulness of the directory to the purchaser desiring to use nationally recognized

specifications. For example, where the use to which a commodity is put is not self-evident from the title of the specification a brief statement of this use has been given, if known.

There is also given a brief summary of each specification so that the reader may to some

extent judge for himself whether the scope of the specification fits his particular needs. Cross-referencing has been used to tie up related specifications. To obtain the best results with the directory full use should be made of the index on

pages 501 to 548. In this index the commodities are fisted alphabetically, and references

are given to the classification groups in the body of the directory in which the specifications for the particular commodities appear. Directions for obtaining copies of the specifica- tions will be found on page 481. Besides the Directory of Specifications, the Department of Commerce is preparing an Encyclopedia of Specifications. This encyclopedia contains the actual text of the

specifications as contrasted with the directory which contains titles with brief descriptive

items. Two parts of the encyclopedia have already been published, (1) Standards and

Specifications in the Wood Using Industries, published in June, 1927, and (2) Standards and Specifications for Nonmetallic Minerals and their Products, published in March, 1930. These two books cover the classification groups 400-499 and 500-599, respectively, of the National Directory of Specifications. In these parts are to be found the actual text of the nationally recognized specifications under the above classification groups in existence when the books were prepared. Some of the specifications referred to in the present

edition of the directory will be found to be revisions of specifications included in the parts

of the encyclopedia already published. In a few cases there are references to specifications formulated since the two volumes of the encyclopedia were issued.

DIRECTIONS FOR OBTAINING COPIES OF SPECIFICATIONS

Copies of specifications issued by technical and trade associations may be obtained

directly from the associations. A list of these associations, with the addresses of their

secretaries, is given below.

Specifications of the Federal Specifications Board having alphabetical designations, such as JJJ-S-351, may be obtained by purchase from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C. For those specifications with numerical

designations only, inquiry should be made of the Federal Specifications Board, Washington.

Information on method of procurement of other specifications issued by the various bureaus and agencies of the several departments or establishments of the Federal Govern- ment can best be obtained directly from the Washington, D. C., headquarters of the bureaus and agencies concerned. In making inquiries concerning specifications, care should be taken to give both the

title and designating number of the specification. In some cases the specification may be

a part of some "manual" and not have any identifying number. In these cases the title of the manual or other publication is usually stated in the directory immediately following the name of the organization which issues the specification. The specifications and standards fisted under the classifications 400-499 and 500-599

of the directory will be found printed in full or abstracted in two volumes of the Encyclopedia of Specifications, (1) Standards and Specifications in the Wood Using Industries, published in June, 1927, and (2) Standards and Specifications for Nonmetallic Minerals and Their Products, published in March, 1930. These two volumes contain the nationally recognized standards and specifications which were current at the time of publication. They may be obtained from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing

Office, Washington, for $1.50 and $2.75, respectively. NAMES AND ADDRESSES OF STANDARDIZING AGENCIES
