The Standards Compendium 2018 for engineering training and everyday use in mechanical engineering
The Standards Compendium is considered as essential reading in the Swiss mechanical, electrical and metal engineering industries (MEM industries). It is used for the training and further development of professionals, technicians and engineers, and is also generally used in practice as a set of standards. The Standards Compendium 2018 describes and explains the binding international (ISO), European (EN) and Swiss (SN) standards in their technical field of application and represents the current state of standardization in 2018.
