This document covers a dual dimensioning practice that provides both U.S. customary inch-pound units and SI metric units for all dimensions on the field of the drawing. The scope does not include the “chart method”—whereby drawings are dimensioned only in SI units—with conversions to inch-pound units provided in chart form (usually computer-generated) on the drawing. Further information on the chart method is found in SAE Handbook Supplement J1066, “Recommended Guidelines for Company Metrication Programs in the Metalworking Industry.”

It applies to reports of Surface Vehicles and Machinery Technical Committees only. Aerospace technical reports are covered by editorial practices of the Aerospace Council. Close adherence to this recommended practice by technical committees of SAE will help to assure uniform technical reports. Should questions on format, style, or other matters pertaining to the organization and editorial practices of technical reports be raised within technical committees of the Technical Board, they should be referred to the Chairman of the Publications Advisory Committee for interpretation or for discussion by the full Publications Advisory Committee.

This SAE Recommended Practice defines a guideline to help engineering users in workstation selection by specifying engineering workstation configurations in terms of vendor supported functionality for several levels of performance and capacity. These workstations will satisfy different engineering applications while maintaining interoperability. The objective is to specify a set of standards, not a single workstation, which must be addressed by the Engineering Workstation vendors to meet the hardware and operating environment needs of engineers in their CAD, CAM, CAE and other engineering activities.

This SAE Standard provides basic information on the International System of Units, abbreviated SI in all languages, and its application in engineering practice and measurement unit usage.
