Description

This book is a guide to Technical Product Specifications (TPS) in relation to BS 8888:2008, specifically engineering drawings.

This Essential Guide to Technical Product Specification is intended as a companion to the standard BS 8888:2008 Technical product specification for technical product realisation.

The book offers straightforward guidance, together with pictorial representations, to all practitioners of technical product specification. It combines the tools engineers need to engage in design specification, manufacturing and verification, with the essential basic information required for specifying a product or component.

As major sectors continue to adopt BS 8888:2008 (particularly in defence contracts), the need to use BS 8888 becomes more pressing. This publication presents up-to-date information on the technical drawing aspects of BS 8888:2008, in a manner similar to the presentation in the old BS 308, and will help users trained in BS 308 to adapt to the new standards.

It includes comprehensive sections extracted from and referenced to international standards relating to linear, geometric and surface texture dimensioning and tolerancing, together with the practice of welding symbology, limits and fits, and thread data. It also includes an illustrated index to all standards referenced in BS 8888:2008.
