Abstract :
After almost three years of investigation by the engineering fraternity, under the guidance of Professor Comfort A. Adams as Chairman, the revised constitution of the American Engineering Standards Committee, along with by-laws and rules of procedure, has been adopted, and has been ratified by the A. S. C. E., the A. I. M. &. M. E., the A. S. M. E., the A. I. E. E. and the A. S. T. M., and the three Government Departments, of Commerce, Navy and War. Each of these interests have three representatives, and although the Committee as it exists today consists of twenty-four members, the new Committee is of very wide scope and allows the direct or indirect participation of anyone interested in standardization.
