This Standard establishes the definition of composite parts that are not covered within the existing ASME Y14 Series of standards. This Standard defines exceptions and additional requirements to existing ASME stan- dards for defining composite parts. Composite parts as addressed by this Standard are inseparable assemblies of composite materials that may include noncomposite material(s). When no exception or additional require- ments are stated, existing ASME standards shall apply. 1.1 ASME Y14 Series Conventions The conventions in paras. 1.1.1 through 1.1.10 are guidance used in this and other ASME Y14 Series of standards. 1.1.1 Mandatory, Nonmandatory, Guidance, and Optional Words (a) The word“shall” establishes a mandatory requirement. (b) The word “will” establishes an intended, manda- tory requirement. (c) The words“should” and “may” establish a non- mandatory practice. (d) The words “typical,” “example,” “for reference,” or the Latin abbreviation“e.g.” indicate suggestions given for guidance only. (e) When the text of this Standard has an “or” state- ment, it indicates that there are two or more options on how to comply with the stated requirement. 1.1.2 Cross-Reference of Standards. Cross- reference of standards in text with or without a date following the standard identity is interpreted as follows: (a) reference to other ASME Y14 Series of standards in the text without a date following the Standard identity indicates the issue of the standard as identified in the References section (section 2) shall be used to meet the requirement (b) reference to other ASME Y14 Series of standards in the text with a date following the standard identity indicates that only that issue of the standard shall be used to meet the requirement 1.1.3 Invocation of Referenced Standards. The following examples define the invocation of a standard when specified in the References section (section 2) and referenced in the text of this Standard: (a) When the text states “dimensioning and toleranc- ing shall be in accordance with ASME Y14.5-2009,” with no limitations to a specific subject or area of the Standard, the entire text of ASME Y14.5 2009 is invoked. (b) When the text states “assign part or identifying numbers in accordance with ASME Y14.100-2004,” only the paragraph requirements on Part or Identifying Number assignment in ASME Y14.100-2004 are invoked. (c) When the text states “for gaging principles see ASME Y14.43,” the text provides a cross-reference of where to find guidance for dimensioning and toleranc- ing for gages and fixtures, and no portion of ASME Y14.43 is invoked. 1.1.4 Parentheses Following a Definition. When a definition is followed by a standard referenced in paren- theses, the standard referenced in parentheses is the controlling standard for the definition. 1.1.5 Notes. Notes depicted in this Standard in ALL UPPERCASE letters are intended to reflect actual drawing entries. Notes depicted in initial uppercase or lowercase letters are to be considered supporting data to the contents of this Standard and are not intended for literal entry on drawings. A statement requiring the addition of a note with the qualifier “such as” is a requirement to add a note, and the content of the text is allowed to vary to suit the application. 1.1.6 Acronyms and Abbreviations. Acronyms and abbreviations are spelled out the first time used in this Standard followed by the acronym or abbreviation in parentheses. The acronym is used thereafter throughout the text. 1.1.7 Units. U.S. Customary units are featured in this Standard. It should be understood that International System of Units (SI) could equally have been used with- out prejudice to the principles established. 1.1.8 Figures. ASME Y14.37 pdf download.
