Sinopsis

This book collates practical questions which must be answered to ensure a specification is specific, and a purchaser receives the apparatus and materials expected, promoting understanding between buyers, manufacturers and engineers. It is not a model specification or intended to make one specification fit every conceivable case. The purpose of a specification is to detail requirements with a definite knowledge of the problems to be solved and the properties of appliances and materials. The book provides reminders of questions which must be considered when purchasing apparatus or a combination of apparatus, especially for those new to engineering work and at risk of following blindly along paths that lead to unforeseen troubles. Precise detail is always better than guesswork in engineering matters and this book acts as a checklist to ensure nothing is overlooked.

To the manufacturer, they offer the certainty that his products will be placed under the buyer's eye, that he will have fair consideration, an equal hearing on an equal footing, with every competitor His Opportunity to bid will not. Depend upon the chance of his special individual catalogue having been mailed, received, kept, remembered and consulted. The index automatically calls him to the buyer's attention whenever and wherever the kinds of product in which he deals are sought or being considered. And, beyond this, it secures him notice, for possible future advantage, when other kindred matters are being looked up.
