Subfamilies
- Standard S LightFor example, a physical property of a material is often affected by the precise method of testing: any reference to the property should therefore reference the test method used.
- Standard M LightStandards often get reviewed, revised and updated on a regular basis. It is critical that the most current version of a published standard be used or referenced.
- Standard L LightANSI's market-driven, decentralized approach has been criticized in comparison with more planned and organized international approaches to standardization.
- Standard S Light ObliqueThe ANSI for eye protection is Z87.1, which gives a specific impact resistance rating to the eyewear. This standard is commonly used for shop glasses, shooting glasses, and many other examples of protective eyewear.
- Standard M Light ObliqueTechnical standards are defined as industry standards, also referred to as private standards, which are standards developed in the private sector but not in the full consensus process, typically requiring a financial contribution.
- Standard L Light ObliquePrivate standards typically require a financial contribution in terms of an annual fee from the organizations who adopt the standard. Corporations are encouraged to join the board of governance of the standard owner.
- Standard S RegularTechnical standards may exist as public documents on the internet, public library, etc. Some technical standards may be found at a major central library or at the library of a good technical university
- Standard M RegularThe existence of a published standard does not imply that it is always useful or correct. For example, if an item complies with a certain standard, there is not necessarily assurance that it is fit for any particular use.
- Standard L RegularThese standards ensure that the characteristics and performance of products are consistent, that people use the same definitions and terms, and that products are tested the same way.
- Standard S Regular ObliqueTechnical standards may exist as published documents available for purchase or private documents owned by an organization or corporation, used and circulated as the owner determines necessary or useful
- Standard M Regular ObliqueTechnical standards are defined as voluntary consensus standards, which are standards developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies, domestic (national), regional and international.
- Standard L Regular ObliqueA de facto standard is a custom or convention that is commonly used even though its use is not required. De facto is a Latin phrase meaning in practice but not necessarily ordained by law, or in practice or actuality, but not officially established.
- Standard S MediumStandards organizations often have more diverse input and usually develop voluntary standards: these might become mandatory if adopted by a government (i.e., through legislation), business contract, etc.
- Standard M MediumA standard practice or procedure gives a set of instructions for performing operations or functions. For example, there are detailed standard operating procedures for operation of a nuclear power plant.
- Standard L MediumANSI's market-driven, decentralized approach has been criticized in comparison with more planned and organized international approaches to standardization.
- Standard S Medium Oblique2.54 mm (0.1 inch) pin spacing on many electronic components, including DIP, SIL packages, header connectors, and many more. The standard spacing enable use of these devices in prototyping boards and standardized sockets.
- Standard M Medium ObliqueIn contrast, a custom, convention, company product, corporate standard, and so forth that becomes generally accepted and dominant is often called a de facto standard.
- Standard L Medium ObliqueWhen a geographically defined community must solve a community-wide coordination problem, it can adopt an existing standard or produce a new one.
- Standard S SemiboldThere are many examples of de facto consolidation of a standard by market forces and competition, in a two-sided market, after a dispute, for example with VHS and Betamax in the videotape format war.
- Standard M SemiboldThe American National Standards Institute is a private nonprofit organization that oversees the development of voluntary consensus standards for products, services, processes, systems, and personnel in the United States.
- Standard L SemiboldA technical standard may be developed privately or unilaterally, for example by a corporation, regulatory body, military, etc. Standards can also be developed by groups such as trade unions and trade associations.
- Standard S Semibold ObliqueThe MP3 audio format started as an alternative to WAV for internet music distribution, then replaced it. It is now supported by the vast majority of music players, audio transport, audio storage, and non-commercial media.
- Standard M Semibold ObliqueWith the Acrobat Reader program available for free, and continued support of the format, PDF eventually became the de facto standard for printable documents. In 2005, PDF/A became a de jure standard as ISO 19005-1:2005.[4] In 2008 Adobe's PDF 1.7 became ISO 32000-1:2008.
- Standard L Semibold ObliqueANSI was most likely formed in 1918, when five engineering societies and three government agencies founded the American Engineering Standards Committee (AESC).
- Standard S BoldA technical standard includes definition of terms; classification of components; delineation of procedures; specification of dimensions, materials, performance, designs, or operations; measurement of quality and quantity in describing materials, processes, products, systems, services, or practices; test methods and sampling procedures; or descriptions of fit and measurements of size or strength.
- Standard M BoldTechnical standards are defined as voluntary consensus standards, which are standards developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies, domestic (national), regional and international.
- Standard L BoldA standard specification is an explicit set of requirements for an item, material, component, system or service. It is often used to formalize the technical aspects of a procurement agreement or contract.
- Standard S Bold ObliqueMicrosoft has repeatedly internally changed the file specification between versions of Word to suit their own needs, while continuing to reuse the same file extension identifier for different versions.
- Standard M Bold ObliqueMIDI connection (using DIN connector or Phone connector), electrical and protocol standard for connecting musical instruments, synthesizers, drum machines, sequencers, and some audio equipment.
- Standard L Bold ObliqueAccording to Adam Stanton, the first permanent secretary and head of staff in 1919, AESC started as an ambitious program and little else. Staff for the first year consisted of one executive, Clifford B. LePage, who was on loan from a founding member, ASME.
- Standard S HeavyUSB for high speed serial interface in computers and for powering or charging low power external devices (like mobile phones, headphones, portable hard drives) usually using micro USB plug and socket.
- Standard M HeavyUse of programming languages R and Python in science and engineering disciplines, other than computer science, where automated analysis of data is required, while remaining simple enough for a non-professional.
- Standard L HeavyUse of programming languages R and Python in science and engineering disciplines, other than computer science, where automated analysis of data is required, while remaining simple enough for a non-professional.
- Standard S Heavy ObliqueThe people who use the item or service (engineers, trade unions, etc.) or specify it (building codes, government, industry, etc.) have the responsibility to consider the available standards, specify the correct one, enforce compliance, and use the item correctly.
- Standard M Heavy ObliqueStandards organizations often have more diverse input and usually develop voluntary standards: these might become mandatory if adopted by a government (i.e., through legislation), business contract, etc.
- Standard L Heavy Oblique2.54 mm (0.1 inch) pin spacing on many electronic components, including DIP, SIL packages, header connectors, and many more. The standard spacing enable use of these devices in prototyping boards and standardized sockets.
- Standard S BlackCommunication protocols such as Morse code and USB are standards that allow different machines and people to communicate.
- Standard M BlackTechnical standards may exist as published documents available for purchase or private documents owned by an organization or corporation, used and circulated as the owner determines necessary or useful

- Standard S Black ObliqueAutoCAD DXF, an ASCII format for import and export of CAD drawings and fragments in the 1980s and 1990s. In the 2000s, XML based standards emerged as de facto standards.
- Standard M Black ObliqueA standard is a basis for comparison. Standards are made either by many people that agree on something, or if some organisation makes it so.
- Standard L Black ObliqueTechnical standards may exist as published documents available for purchase or private documents owned by an organization or corporation, used and circulated as the owner determines necessary or useful
