11、ot a part of ASME Y14.4M-1989.)Since the first national standard for engineering drawings,Standards for Cross-Sec-tions,was published by ASME in 1914,the field of engineering documentation has stead-ily become increasingly versatile and sophisticated.Pictorial Drawing,considered a frivolous waste of
12、 time by many engineering people in those early days,emerged and proved itself a strong and viable technical communication medium during World War 11,and it has further reinforced its position in that area since that time.Ultimately,the first Pictorial Drawing standard was published in 1957.Recogniz
13、ing that engineering documentation is a dynamic process,this revision en-deavors to set forth coherent and useful standards of practice,based on the progress achieved in this interesting profession.It is hoped and assumed that user groups will recognize and accept the importance of standardization a
14、nd realistic uniformity in pic-torial documentation practices,while at the same time thoughtfully and consistently augmenting and supplementing these basics to satisfy the distinctive needs and applica-tions at the many and varied individual user levels.Following approval by the Y14 Committee and AS
15、ME,this Standard was approved as an American National Standard by ANSI on July 19,1989.iii Copyrighted material licensed to Stanford University by Thomson Scientific(),downloaded on Oct-05-2010 by Stanford University User.No further reproduction or distribution is permitted.Uncontrolled when printed
