Tolerances for Building: Recommendations for Statistical Basis for Predicting Fit Between Components Having a Normal Distribution of Sizes
Also Known As: ISO 3443-2:1979
The BS 6954-2:1988 standard provides guidance on how to predict the fit between building components that have a normal distribution of sizes. The standard recognizes that inaccuracies in building components can be attributed to both random variability and systematic factors.
In this standard, the focus is on treating random variability as following a normal distribution. This means that the variations in component sizes can be statistically analyzed and predicted using methods based on the normal distribution curve. By considering the random variability as a normal distribution, the standard offers recommendations for tolerance levels that can be applied to ensure proper fit and installation of building components.
The standard provides a statistical basis for predicting fit between components, allowing designers, architects, and construction professionals to make informed decisions regarding tolerances in building construction. It recognizes that some degree of variability is inevitable in the manufacturing and installation of building components and provides a framework to account for this variability.
