Definitions (IIAR 6, Part 4)

Words matter. Consequently, ANSI/IIAR 6-2019 has introduced thirty-one new definitions in Chapter 2. Eventually, these definitions will be moved to ANSI/IIAR 1 American National Standard for Definitions and Terminology Used in IIAR Standards when that document is next revised, but until that time, Chapter 2 is a necessary resource for those wanting to implement IIAR 6.
