examples of AMSE Y14.100 naming conventions 1

[rmetzger]

We're revising our drawing standards to conform more closely to ASME Y14-100 and running into question in regards to naming conventions by non-engineers. What seems to help are examples of the naming convetion as applied to common parts, any idea on where a reference list may be obtained?

thanks

Naming convention: Noun Category, Modifier 1, Modifier 2, etc, etc. Reading a nomenclature backwards should make sense.

Stapler, Black, 747, Swingline
Pencil, Mechanical, 0.5mm, Berol

Have you read faq731-376 to make the best use of Eng-Tips Forums?

^^ What he said. But he never did get into separating the first line of the title from the second line of the title with a dash. Now that's fun.
