International and National Standards on Dimensional Coordination, Modular Coordination, Tolerances and Joints in Building
This publication lists international, multi-national (regional), and national standards from over 50 countries dealing with the principles and application of dimensional or modular coordination in building, including joints and tolerances. It is based on NBSIR 79-1791, with the same title, which was sent to national and multi-national standards organizations for review and comment. The document shows the widespread adoption of the internatinal building module of 100 mm (also designated as M) as a basis for dimensional rationalization in building design, production and construction. The listing includes international (ISO) standards, multi-national (COPANT, ICAITI, and CMEA) standards, and national standards from all major countries. Brief summaries of contents have been included where available and titles in English for documents printed in other languages. Appendixes illustrate international cooperation on the subject, a multi-lingual vocabulary of 20 key terms, and review comments received. The main purpose of the document is to assist the U.S. construction community by providing information on international precedent to facilitate decisionmaking relative to new standards for dimensional (modular) coordination in building, especially those to be developed in metric (SI) units. Key findings have been summarized. The document may also assist exporters of building products and/or services.
