Sec. 101-29.202  Standard.



    A standard is a document that establishes engineering and technical 

requirements for items, processes, procedures, practices, and methods 

that have been adopted as customary. Standards may also establish 

requirements for selection, application, and design criteria so as to 

achieve the highest practical degree of uniformity in materials or 

products, or interchangeability of parts used within or on those 

products.
