Z85-1983
1. Scope
This Standard establishes abbreviations for words and word combinations for use
on drawings and in engineering and scientific writing. The purpose is not to
promote the use of abbreviations but to establish standard abbreviations to be
used when abbreviations are necessary. This Standard also includes commonly
used SI units. (See the Bibliography for a list of related standards.)
Functional designations, graphic symbols, letter combinations, data elements,
mathematical symbols, quantity symbols, and reference designations, because
they are not considered abbreviations, are with few exceptions excluded from
this Standard. Also excluded are abbreviations for such categories as
organizations, agencies, and computer languages. Symbols for chemical elements
appear in Clause 10.
