NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS
The National Bureau of Standards' was established by an act of Congress March 3, 1901. The Bureau's overall goal is to
strengthen and advance the Nation's science and technology and facilitate their effective application for public benefit. To this
end, the Bureau conducts research and provides: (1) a basis for the Nation's physical measurement system, (2) scientific and
technological services for industry and government, (3) a technical basis for equity in trade, and (4) technical services to pro-
mote public safety. The Bureau consists of the Institute for Basic Standards, the Institute for Materials Research, the Institute
for Applied Technology, the Institute for Computer Sciences and Technology, the Office for Information Programs, and the
Office of Experimental Technology Incentives Program.
THE INSTITUTE FOR BASIC STANDARDS provides the central basis within the United States of a complete and consist-
ent system of physical measurement; coordinates that system with measurement systems of other nations; and furnishes essen-
tial services leading to accurate and uniform physical measurements throughout the Nation's scientific community, industry,
and commerce. The Institute consists of the Office of Measurement Services, and the following center and divisions:
— — — — —
—
Applied Mathematics -—Electricity —Mechanics Heat —Optical Physics Center for Radiation Research Lab-
oratory Astrophysics" • Cryogenics" Electromagnetics" Time and Frequency".
THE INSTITUTE FOR MATERIALS RESEARCH conducts materials research leading to improved methods of measure-
ment, standards, and data on the properties of well-characterized materials needed by industry, commerce, educational insti-
tutions, and Government; provides advisory and research services to other Government agencies; and develops, produces, and
distributes standard reference materials. The Institute consists of the Office of Standard Reference Materials, the OflBice of Air
and Water Measurement, and the following divisions:
— — — — —
Analytical Chemistry Polymers Metallurgy Inorganic Materials Reactor Radiation Physical Chemistry.
THE INSTITUTE FOR APPLIED TCCHNOLOGY provides technical services developing and promoting the use of avail-
able technology; cooperates with public and private organizations in developing technological standards, codes, and test meth-
ods; and provides technical advice services, and information to Government agencies and the public. The Institute consists of
the following divisions and centers:
— —
Standards Application and Analysis —Electronic Technology Center for Consumer Product Technology: Product
Systems Analysis; Product Engineering Center fo—r Building Technology; Structures, Materials, and Safety; Building
Environment; Technical Evaluation and Application Center for Fire Research: Fire Science; Fire Safety Engineering.
THE INSTITUTE FOR COMPUTER SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY conducts research and provides technical services
designed to aid Government agencies in improving cost effectiveness in the conduct of their programs through the selection,
acquisition, and effective utilization of automatic data processing equipment; and serves as the principal focus wthin the exec-
utive branch for the development of Federal standards for automatic data processing equipment, techniques, and computer
languages. The Institute consist of the following divisions:
— — —
Computer Services - Systems and Software Computer Systems Engineering Information Technology.
THE OFFICE OF EXPERIMENTAL TECHNOLOGY INCENTIVES PROGRAM seeks to affect public policy and process
to facilitate technological change in the private sector by examining and experimenting with Government policies and prac-
tices in order to identify and remove Government-related barriers and to correct inherent market imperfections that impede
the innovation process.
THE OFFICE FOR INFORMATION PROGRAMS promotes optimum dissemination and accessibility of scientific informa-
tion generated within NBS; promotes the development of the National Standard Reference Data System and a system of in-
formation analysis centers dealing with the broader aspects of the National Measurement System; provides appropriate services
to ensure that the NBS staff has optimum accessibility to the scientific information of the world. The Office consists of the
following organizational units:
— — — —
Office of Standard Reference Data— Office of Information Activities Office of Technical Publications Library
Office of International Standards Office of International Relations.

Index of U.S. Nuclear Standards
William J. Slattery, Editor
This Index contains the permuted titles ofmore than 1,200 nuclear and nuclear-related standards,
specifications, test methods, codes and recommended practices published by 34 U.S. government
agencies, technical societies, professional organizations and trade associations. Each title can be found
under all the significant key words which it contains. These key words are arranged alphabetically
down the center ofeach page together with their surrounding context. Each entry includes the date of
publication or last revision, the standard number, an acronym designating the standards-issuing
organization, any cross reference standard number, and price.
Key words: Engineeringstandards, indexof; indexofnuclearstandards; nuclear standards; KWIC index
ofstandards
