Abstract :
By action of the Standards Executive Committee at their meeting of December 3, and subsequent approval by the Board of Directors of the Institute on December 10, 1926, two sections of the A. I. E. E. Standards were ordered submitted as American Standards to the American Engineering Standards Committee. The sections referred to are as follows: No. 38, Standards for Electric Arc Welding Apparatus (March 1925); and No. 39, Standards for Resistance Welding Apparatus (Revised September, 1926). Both of these Welding Standards were developed by a representative working committee of the Standards Committee under the chairmanship of F. M. Farmer and, in accordance with the regular practise of the Standards Committee, received wide distribution in report form for purposes of criticism and suggestion before finally approved as A. I. E. E. Standards.
