12、ometer 12iiiFOREWORDASME Standards Committee B89 on Dimensional Metrology, under procedures approved bythe American National Standards Institute (ANSI), prepares standards that encompass the inspec-tion and the means of measuring characteristics of such various geometric parameters as diameter,lengt

13、h, flatness, parallelism, concentricity, and squareness. Because steel measuring tapes arewidely used for the measurement and comparison of some of these features, the Chair of theB89 Division 1 Length authorized the formation of Project Team B89.1.7 to prepare this Standard.The overall scope of Dim

14、ensional Metrology Measuring Tape Project Team B89.1.7 is to definethe requirements for steel measuring tapes for all units of measures in U.S. Customary units andSI units with respect to graduations, numbering, designations, and accuracy.This Standard provides guidance to users and manufacturers of

15、 steel measuring tapes withrespect to quality standards and preferred measuring units by specifying only the requirementsthat are essential for satisfactory performance. Presently, both SI (metric) and U.S. Customary(inch-based) graduations are in popular use.Nonmandatory Appendices A and B discuss

16、tape calibration uncertainties and provide generalguidance and awareness regarding the determination and application of calibration uncertaintiesrelative to tape calibrations. Nonmandatory Appendix A treats the subject of calibration of atape by comparison to a master tape; Nonmandatory Appendix B d

17、iscusses calibration of a tapeusing a laser interferometer.Drafts of this Standard were proposed and discussed during project team meetings from January1996 through October 2008.This Standard was approved by the American National Standards Institute on June 15, 2009.Suggestions for improvement of th

25、SPONDENCE WITH THE B89 COMMITTEEGeneral. ASME Standards are developed and maintained with the intent to represent theconsensus of concerned interests. As such, users of this Standard may interact with the Committeeby requesting interpretations, proposing revisions, and attending Committee meetings.

26、Corre-spondence should be addressed to:Secretary, B89 Standards CommitteeThe American Society of Mechanical EngineersThree Park AvenueNew York, NY 10016-5990Proposing Revisions. Revisions are made periodically to the Standard to incorporate changesthat appear necessary or desirable, as demonstrated

27、by the experience gained from the applicationof the Standard. Approved revisions will be published periodically.The Committee welcomes proposals for revisions to this Standard. Such proposals should beas specific as possible, citing the paragraph number(s), the proposed wording, and a detaileddescri

28、ption of the reasons for the proposal, including any pertinent documentation.Proposing a Case. Cases may be issued for the purpose of providing alternative rules whenjustified, to permit early implementation of an approved revision when the need is urgent, or toprovide rules not covered by existing

29、provisions. Cases are effective immediately upon ASMEapproval and shall be posted on the ASME Committee Web page.Requests for Cases shall provide a Statement of Need and Background Information. The requestshould identify the Code, the paragraph, figure or table number(s), and be written as a Questio

30、nand Reply in the same format as existing Cases. Requests for Cases should also indicate theapplicable edition(s) of the Code to which the proposed Case applies.Interpretations. Upon request, the B89 Committee will render an interpretation of any require-ment of the Standard. Interpretations can onl

31、y be rendered in response to a written request sentto the Secretary of the B89 Standards Committee.The request for interpretation should be clear and unambiguous. It is further recommendedthat the inquirer submit his/her request in the following format:Subject: Cite the applicable paragraph number(s

32、) and the topic of the inquiry.Edition: Cite the applicable edition of the Standard for which the interpretation isbeing requested.Question: Phrase the question as a request for an interpretation of a specific requirementsuitable for general understanding and use, not as a request for an approvalof

33、a proprietary design or situation. The inquirer may also include any plansor drawings that are necessary to explain the question; however, they shouldnot contain proprietary names or information.Requests that are not in this format will be rewritten in this format by the Committee priorto being answ

34、ered, which may inadvertently change the intent of the original request.ASME procedures provide for reconsideration of any interpretation when or if additionalinformation that might affect an interpretation is available. Further, persons aggrieved by aninterpretation may appeal to the cognizant ASME

35、 Committee or Subcommittee. ASME does not“approve,” “certify,” “rate,” or “endorse” any item, construction, proprietary device, or activity.Attending Committee Meetings. The B89 Standards Committee regularly holds meetings, whichare open to the public. Persons wishing to attend any meeting should co

37、2 DEFINITIONSaccuracy: closeness of agreement between a measuredquantity value and a true quantity value of a measurand.Accuracy is a qualitative concept. (VIM 2.13)graduations: marks or lines perpendicular to the edge ofa measuring tape denoting increments of measure.intermediate graduation: a grad

38、uation mark denoting anincrement of measure that falls between the major andthe minor graduations (e.g., inch or centimeter).major graduation: a graduation mark denoting the largestincrement of measure (e.g., feet or meter).maximum permissible errors (MPE): extreme value of mea-surement error, with

39、respect to a known reference quan-tity value, permitted by specifications or regulations fora given measurement, measuring instrument, or measur-ing system. (VIM 4.26)minor graduation: a graduation mark denoting the small-est increment of measure (e.g., fraction of an inch, deci-mal inch, or millime

40、ter).plumb bob: when used with a measuring tape, a weightwith a tapered or flat tip on the bottom that is suspendedfrom the tape.tension: a force that tends to stretch or elongate some-thing, or a measure of such a force.NOTE: The measure of force in the U.S. Customary system is thepound (lbf); the

41、measure of force in the SI system is the newton(N). Traditionally, the tension (a force) has been referred to in unitsof pounds and kilograms. Pound (or pound-force) is proper. In theSI system of units, the kilogram is the unit of mass and the newtonis the unit of force. In this Standard, the tensio

42、n for tapes graduatedin SI units is specified in kilograms, in order to maintain continuityof reference to master tape calibration data. The correspondingforce in newtons is equal to the applied mass in kilogramsmultiplied by the acceleration due to gravity, g. By convention,g p 9.80665 m/s2exactly.

43、 Thus, the force exerted on a tape by a1 kg load is 9.80665 N. For highest accuracy, the local value of gshould be used.validity conditions: the set of values or range of valuesof the relevant influence quantities, e.g., environmentalconditions, under which the performance specificationsare valid.1z

44、ero reference mark: the location from which all graduationand numbering of the measuring tape is dimensioned.3 REFERENCES3.1 Normative ReferencesIf the American National Standard Institute (ANSI)and ISO standards referred to in this document aresuperseded by a revision, the revision shall apply.IEEE
