This VG standard gives the terms and definitions, types, dimensions, masses, material, mechanical properties, technical specification and a designation example. The dimensions can be determined with the bases of calculation presented in Annex A in accordance with the indicated formation rules. The equations apply for the width, diameter, thickness, height, length and radius.
