If you wish you can forward him my e-mail address. -----Original Message----- From: Jim McCracken [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday 14 March 2001 09:06 To: U.S. Metric Association Subject: [USMA:11603] Fwd: Metrication Implementation Here is an interesting request, from a Canadian company. Can anyone on the list recommend current guidance for converting "mechanical design" activities to the metric system?? To whom it may concern, We are presently gearing up to implement this year the SI unit in all aspects of our company's activities. I've been assigned to review and recommend the application of "hard" and "soft" metric practice on mechanical design. Would you have any publications that I could download and use as a guide for a smooth transition?
