Bezeichnungen für Normen

German
In standardisation - whether national, European or international - there is a system behind everything. Thus, standard numbers and letter abbreviations for DIN standards are not random products, but - if read correctly - provide precise information about certain characteristics of technical documents: The authors Jan Dittberner and Michael Krüger explain these relationships in detail and also illustrate the links with European and international standards. This compendium is impressive not only because of the large number of standards symbols covered, but also because of its convincing organisational principle: it is quickly clear what can be found where. In addition, many examples and illustrations concretise the relationships presented. The sixth edition has been completely revised. For example, it is now possible to better distinguish between currently used designations and historical designations. Newly included are detailed explanations of the DIN-SPEC procedure.

English
Standardisation - whether national, European or international - is systematic. This is also true of the identification of standards: Each standard number includes a letter or combination of letters (acronym) indicating the nature of the document and its relationship with other technical rules. This bilingual (German/English) Beuth Pocket will help anyone working with standards quickly find their way around the standard numbering system, making it easier to find the documents they need. Numerous examples and illustrations round out this practical guide. This 6th edition has been completely revised and expanded to reflect the revision of the DIN 820 series of standards as well as the latest developments in standardization.
