[MW:10618] Re: Publication of ASME / ASTM / ANSI

ASME - American Society of Mechanical Engineers
ANSI - American National Standards Institute
ASTM - American Society of Testing and Materials

ASME establishes the standards of engineering practices and methods,
in an effort to spread competency throughout all practicing engineers.
They establish such standards as required material thickness (e.g.
required wall thickness for boilers under certain pressure), as well
as material choices, testing etc.

ANSI doesn't actually establish standards, rather gives accreditation
for them. Many of these standards are on a basic level, such as thread
profiles & dimensions, etc.

ASTM establishes standard methods of testing for materials and
processes, such as rockwell and brinell hardness tests.

These three bodies help keep the nation on the same page with each
other by setting standards across the board.
