GENERAL REQUIREMENTS AWS D1.9/D1.9M:20151.8 Standard Units of MeasurementThis standard makes use of both U.S. Customary Units and the International System of Units (SI). The latter are shownwith brackets or in appropriat

30、e columns in tables and figures. The measurements may not be exact equivalents; there-fore, each system shall be used independently.1.9 Reference DocumentsAnnex B contains a list of all documents referenced in the code.AWS D1.9/D1.9M:201552.
