FOREWORD
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation
of national standards institutes (IS0 Member Bodies). The work of developing
International Standards is carried out through ISO Technical Committees. Every
Member Body interested in a subject for which a Technical Committee has been set
up has the right to be represented on that Committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
Graft International Standards adopted by the Technical Committees are circulated
to the Member Bodies for approval before their acceptance as International
Standards by the IS0 Council.
International Standard IS0 3098/l was drawn up by Technical Committee
I SOITC 10, Technical drawings, and circulated to the Member Bodies in
February 1973.
It has been approved by the Member Bodies of the following countries :
Australia France New Zealand

AVANT-PROPOS
L'ISO (Organisation Internationale de Normalisation) est une fédération mondiale
d'organismes nationaux de normalisation (Comités Membres ISO). L'élaboration de
Normes Internationales est confiée aux Comités Techniques ISO. Chaque Comité
Membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du Comité Technique
et non
correspondant. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales
gouvernementales, en liaison avec VISO, participent également aux travaux.
Les Projets de Normes Internationales adoptés par les Comités Techniques sont
soumis aux Comités Membres pour approbation, avant leur acceptation comme
Normes Internationales par le Conseil de 1'60.
La Norme Internationale IS0 3098/1 a été établie par le Comité Technique
ISO/TC 10, Dessins techniques, et soumise aux Comités Membres en février 1973.
Elle a été approuvée par les Comités Membres des pays suivants :
