BSi publishes BS EN 10079:2007 for steel products
BS EN 10079 is a European standard that has been brought up to date to reflect the latest developments in defining how steel is supplied and purchased. It defines the terms for steel products used internationally.
BS EN 10079 provides guidance on the definition systems used in the former European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) Treaty as well as the Statistical office of the European Communities and of the Harmonised Commodity Description and Coding System.
The entries that are presented in this standard have been ordered systematically, and have been grouped by steel products according to:
- Shape and dimensions eg flat products, long products, heavy sections
- Appearance and surface condition eg coated flat products, bright products
BS EN 10079:2007 (ISBN 978 0 580 50483 9) replaces BS EN 10079:1993, which has been withdrawn.
Price: £134 + P&P or £67 for members of BSi.
