(As developed by the ASCE Technical Procedures Committee July 1930)and revised March 1935 February 1962 and April 1982)
A manual. or report in this series consists of an orderly presentation offacts on a particular subject supplemented by an analysis of limitations and applications of these facts. It contains information useful to theaverage engineer in his or her everyday work rather than findings thatdard ” however; nor is it so elementary or so conclusive as to provide a"rule of thumb” for nonengineers.
Furthermore material in this series in distinction from a paper (whichmittee or group selected to assemble and express information on a expresses only one person's observations or opinions) is the work of aspecific topic. As often as practicable the mittee is under the direction of one or more of the Technical Divisions and Councils and the productDivision or Council. As a step in the process of.this review proposed evolved has been subjected to review by the Executive Committee of themanuscripts are often brought before the members of the Technical Divi-sions and Councils for ment which may serve as the basis for improvement. When published each work shows the names of the -mittees by which it was piled and indicates'clearly the several pro-cesses through which it has passed in review in order that its merit may be definitely understood.
In February 1962 (and revised in April 1982) the Board of Directionvoted to establish a series entitled “Manuals and Reports on EngineeringPractice ” to include the Manuals published and authorized to date future Manuals of Professional Practice and Reports on Engincering Practice.All such Manual or Report material of the Society would have been ref- ereed in a manner approved by the Board Committee on Publications andwould be bound with applicable discussion in books similar to pastManuals. Numbering would be consecutive and would be a continuation of present Manual numbers. In some cases of reports of joint mittees bypassing of Joumal publications may be authorized.
