without sorting for machine or printing speed to secure satisfactory reproduction. The processes
and materials used shall insure reproductions can be kept for a minimum of two years without
deterioration .
3.5 Reduced size reproductions.Reduced size reproductions (Type B) shall be direct
reading. Reduction shall be to one-half the size of the original drawing but no smaller than "A"
size (8-1/2 by 11 inches) or A4 size (210 by 297 mm). Reduced size reproducibles shall meet the
requirements of 3.4 and shall not exceed 24 by 24 inches or 610 by 610 mm. Drawings exceeding
approximately 90 inches or 2280 mm shall be photographed in sections from right to left, allowing
for an overlap of 1 inch or 25mm on each section. When drawings are reproduced in sections, the
drawing and section number shall appear on each section.
3.5.1 Size identification. Reduced size reproductions and related shipping lists shall be
clearly marked to indicate the original and reduced sizes. The regular size letter of the drawing
shall be indicated, followed by a slant and the letter designating the reduced size drawing (e.g.
"D/B" where "D" is the original size of the drawing, and "B" is the reduced size or "A1/A3"
where "A1" is the original size of the drawing and "A3" is the reduced size). On the reproduction
a supplemental block shall contain the marking and be located as close as practicable to the
original size designator in the title block without obscuring any aspect of the drawing content.
Shipping lists shallinclude the marking in the size column.
3.5.2 Flat or basic sizes. Flat size drawings B thru F, and basic size drawings A3 thru
A0, shall be reduced only to the sizes indicated in ASME Y14.1 or ASME Y14.1M respectively.
In no case will the drawing be reduced to less than A size for decimal inch drawing sizes, or A4
size for metric drawing sizes.
3.5.3 Roll, elongated, or extra elongated sizes.
Reduced roll, elongated, or extra
elongated size drawings shall be identified by the nearest applicable size designation. However, if
the original roll size drawing is not, or cannot be, reduced to a flat size for decimal inch drawings
or basic size for metric size drawings due to loss of legibility, the reduced size of the drawing will
be denoted as "R" (e.g. "J/R" or "A1X3/R" where "J" or "A1X3" is the original size of the
drawing, and "R" is the roll or elongated size reduion).

(tracing, X-ray, contact, photographic, etc.) providing all requirements of this specification are
met.
3.6.1 Class 3, Type A. Full size reproducibles shall not exceed 60 by 144 inches or 1525
by 3650mm including margin space. Drawings exceeding these dimensions shall be furnished in
sectioned reproducibles, reading from right to left, allowing for a minimum 2 inch or 50mm
overlap on each section. When drawings are reproduced in sections, each section shall include the
drawing and se tion numbers.
