MIL-STD-100 Engineering Drawings S/S By Asme-Y14.100, Asme-Y14.24, Asme-Y14.35M, And Asme-14.34MThis standard, along with ASME Y14.100M, establishes the essential requirements and reference documents applicable to the preparation and revision of engineering drawings and associated lists for or by Departments and Agencies of the Department of Defense. ASME Y14.100M is the preferred requirements document for engineering drawing practices. This standard should only be used in lieu of ASME Y14.100M where the necessity for a DoD design activity is fully justified and Government logistics support is required

MIL-STD-1OOG

(b)  Where the nature of the item requires the plural form, such as in "CLIMBERS" or

"GLOVES".

(c)  Multiple single items appearing on the same drawing, as in "Fuses", "Connectors", or

"Fasteners".

(5)  The word "ASSEMBLY" shall be used in names selected from Cataloging Handbook H6 exactly as published therein ("CABLE ASSEMBLY, SPECIAL PURPOSE, ELECTRICAL"). When no applicable name appears in Cataloging Handbook H6 the word "ASSEMBLY" shall be used as the last word of the noun phrase ("INTAKE-MANIFOLD ASSEMBLY, GASOLINE ENGINE").

(6)  An ambiguous noun, or one which designates several classes of items, shall not be used alone but may be used as part of a noun phrase.

Example:

Acceptable                                                              Unacceptable SLIDE RULE                                                          RULE, SLIDE SOLDERING IRON                                               IRON, SOLDERING

CIRCUIT CARD ASSEMBLY                              ASSEMBLY, CIRCUIT CARD PRINTED WIRING BOARD                                 BOARD, PRINTED WIRING PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD                                BOARD, PRINTED CIRCUIT

NOTE:  One of the most difficult tasks in naming any item is the determination as to when a noun should be qualified as being ambiguous.  The general rule quoted above is amplified to some extent in the succeeding paragraph.  When a noun does not expressly fit under any of these rules,

one step in determining whether the selected noun is or is not ambiguous, is to refer to Cataloging

Handbook H6 to see if it is listed.  For example, if there is a question on the noun "plate", a

review of the index will reveal many item names with the noun "plate" used, indicating the noun is not considered as being ambiguous.

(7)  A trade-marked or copyrighted name shall not be used as the noun or noun phrase except where the technical name is extremely difficult ("FREON 12" rather than "DICHLORODIFLUOROMETHANE") or where no other name is available.

(8)  When an item is not a container or material, but its name involves the use of a noun which ordinarily designates a container or material, a noun phrase shall be used as the basic name.

Acceptable                          Unacceptable

JUNCTION BOX              BOX, JUNCTION CABLE DRUM                 DRUM, CABLE SOLDERING IRON          IRON, SOLDERING

(9)  The following words shall never be used alone but may be the last word of a noun phrase:
