Where can I find engineering standards (IEEE, ASTM)?
Answer
There are two databases that contain standards at McDermott Library:
-
ASTM Compass - Standards and Engineering Digital Library grants access to thousands of standards and publications in more than 130 industry areas, including aerospace, biomedical, chemical, civil, environmental, geological, health and safety, industrial, materials science, mechanical, nuclear, petroleum, soil science, and solar engineering. The library subscription includes access to all Active, Redline, Historical and Withdrawn ASTM standards. It also includes access to ASTM journals, manuals, monographs, data series, and STPs (special technical publications).
- IEEE Xplore is ideal for conducting research in the field of electronics, electrical engineering, telecommunications, wireless communications, and computer engineering. It provides access to IEEE transactions, journals, magazines, and conference proceedings and IEEE-Wiley ebooks as well as active, inactive, and superseded IEEE standards. "Draft" standards are not included as part of the Library's subscription.
