dardization of GraphicalSymbolsandAbbreviations
T h e work of this committee is under the joint sponsorship of t h e American Instiof Mechanical Engineers,
t u t e of Electrical Engineers and the American Society
T h e s t a n d a r d i s t h e s e c o n d of a group of standards which represent a revision
and expansion of an existing standard, American Standard Graphical Symbols
for
Use on Drawings in Mechanical Engineering, 232.2-1941.
In preparing the list of pipe fittings, valves, and piping symbols for use on drawings, over one hundied companies and their representatives were consulted. Great
care was exercised to avoid conflicts with the symbols being assembled by committees in allied fields.
T h e 73 s y m b l s s h o w n are a minimum requirement. Many other piping symbols
exist; for instance, such as those used in petroleum piping.
Following apprpval of the sectional committee and the sponsor organizations,
thisproposalwasapprovedbytheAmericanStandardsAssociationon,April
1949, and designated a s 232.2.3-1949.

scope
This standard has been developed
for use on drawings. Architects, engineers,
and confractors, by the use of t h e s t s y m b o l s on their plans, will have a standard
method of indication for pipe fittings, valves, piping m.d allied itcms. Confusion
in the interpretations of r e q u i r e m e n t s c a n t h u s be avoided.
B a s i c Priaciples
Clarity and simplicity were, considered paramount in the assembling
of these
symbols.Wheneverpossible,simplification
in thedraftingwasprimarily
considered and identification letters were used only when there was a question of a n
error because of similarity of form. Only those symbols, about which there
was
nationwide consensus, were included. There are still maay
symbols t h a t are used
in a particular section but are not nationally recognized.
