BS ISO 21984:2018
Comprehensive metrology and measurement standard BS ISO 21984:2018. Ensure compliance and accurate physical phenomena measurements with this essential technical reference.
Comprehensive Metrology and Measurement Standard
BS ISO 21984:2018 is the essential technical reference for professionals working in metrology and physical measurement. Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), this standard provides comprehensive guidelines and requirements for accurately measuring a wide range of physical phenomena.
Ensure Compliance and Accurate Measurements
Compliance with BS ISO 21984:2018 is crucial for organizations and individuals involved in metrology, testing, and calibration activities. This standard specifies the principles, requirements, and recommendations for:
- Selecting appropriate measurement methods and techniques
- Ensuring the reliability and traceability of measurement results
- Evaluating and expressing measurement uncertainty
- Documenting and reporting measurement data
By adhering to the guidelines set forth in this standard, you can be confident that your physical measurements meet the highest levels of accuracy, precision, and reliability.
Comprehensive Coverage of Physical Phenomena
BS ISO 21984:2018 covers a wide range of physical phenomena, including:
- Mechanics (e.g., force, torque, acceleration, velocity)
- Thermodynamics (e.g., temperature, pressure, humidity)
- Electromagnetism (e.g., electric current, voltage, resistance)
- Optics and acoustics (e.g., light intensity, sound pressure)
- Ionizing radiation (e.g., radioactivity, absorbed dose)
Whether you're working in a laboratory, a manufacturing facility, or a research institution, this standard provides the guidance you need to ensure accurate and reliable measurements across a diverse range of physical disciplines.
Enhance Measurement Traceability and Uncertainty Evaluation
A key focus of BS ISO 21984:2018 is the importance of measurement traceability and uncertainty evaluation. The standard outlines best practices for:
