Russian National Standards

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Russian national technical standards are developed under the auspices of the Russia's Federal Agency for Technical Regulation and Metrology (Rostekhregulirovaniye). When a national standard is approved by a technical committee, it is assigned an acronym GOST R and a numeric designator, consisting of a serial number and a year the standard becomes effective. GOST R (Russian: ¿¿¿¿ ¿) is an acronym for ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ (gosudarstvennyy standart Rossii), which means state standard of Russia. Historically, GOST R standards were created as a subset of the GOST standards originally developed by the government of the Soviet Union and later adopted by the CIS. This creates confusion among standards users who often refer to GOST standards as national standards of the Russian Federation. This however is a common misconception since the GOST standards are the official standards of the Euro-Asian Council for Standardization, Metrology and Certification, which is a regional standards organization headquartered in Minsk, the Republic of Belarus.
