7、rsedes SABS 1360-1:1982 (edition 1). Preface This specification has been prepared under the direction of the SABS Clothing Committee. It is, in technical content, identical to ISO 3636. This specification is one of a series which deals essentially with the size designation of clothes, and is not dir
8、ectly concerned with sizing systems as such. The primary aim of this specification is, as in the other specifications in the series, to establish a size designation system that is based on body measurements, and that indicates (in a simple, direct, and meaningful manner) the body size of the person
9、that a garment is intended to fit. Provided that the shape of the persons body (as indicated by the appropriate dimensions) has been accurately determined, this system will facilitate the choice of garments that fit. Choice of garment measurements is normally left to the designer and the manufacture
10、rs, who are concerned with the style, cut, and other fashion elements, and who must make due allowance for garments normally worn beneath a specific outer garment or accessory.

12、of the specification establishes a system of designating the sizes of mens and boys outerwear garments (including knitwear and swimwear) that are classified as a) covering the upper or the whole body, or b) covering the lower body only, and applies to both civilian and uniform garments. Both the con
13、trol dimensions on which the size designation system is based, and the method of indicating the size designation on a garment label, are specified. NOTE a) The standards referred to in this part of the specification are listed in appendix A. b) Examples of garments covered by this part of the specif
14、ication are given in appendix B. 2 Definitions 2.1 For the purposes of this part of the specification the relevant definitions given in SANS 10184 and the following definitions shall apply: boy a male person whose growth in height is not yet complete man a male person whose growth in height is compl

18、entimetres, of the intended wearer of that garment. Where practicable, the standard pictogram shall be used as a means of indicating the size designation. Where it is not practicable to use the standard pictogram, the numerical values of the control dimensions shall be given together with the approp
19、riate descriptive words such as chest girth, waist girth, etc., in the order in which they are given in 3.1. NOTE The above requirements shall not preclude the use, in exceptional instances, of a) size designations comprising only one or two of the applicable control dimensions; b) size designations
20、 shown as a range by stating the minimum and maximum control dimensions separated by an oblique stroke or a hyphen. SANS 1360-1:2008 Edition 1.2 5 4.2 Use of standard pictogram 4.2.1 The minimum size of the pictogram is not specified but it shall be large enough to convey immediate understanding, an
21、d to allow the use of readily legible numerals. NOTE The recommended type for use on pictograms is UNIVERS No. U-59. 4.2.2 Girth measurements shall be shown on the left-hand side and length measurements on the right-hand side of the pictogram. 4.3 Garment measurements Garment measurements shall not
22、be incorporated in the size designation but, where considered of value, they may be indicated separately (see 5.3). 5 Labelling 5.1 Method The size designation of each garment shall be indicated clearly, conspicuously, and in plainly legible form on a label, or on a swing ticket, or on both. Numeral
23、s shall, in all cases, be readily discernible. 5.2 Attachment The label or swing ticket shall be securely attached to garments in a position where it is easily readable. 5.3 Additional information Information additional to the size designation may be separately indicated on the label, or on the swin
24、g ticket, or on both, provided that it does not in any way reduce the prominence and conspicuousness of the size designation. Such additional information may include a size code number, body measurement(s), or garment measurement(s) considered to constitute useful information, 5.4 Examples of labels
25、 The examples of labels given in figures 2 and 3 illustrate methods of labelling that range from the simple indication on the standard pictogram of the relevant control dimensions to more elaborate forms that provide additional information, such as a garment measurement or a size code number. Where
26、the size designation is supplemented by a size code number, separation of the two, as illustrated, renders the size code number readily recognizable as being part of a system of a size designation adopted for a limited population group only.
