Summary | ISO standards have become more and more important after WTO-TBT agreement. How to harmonize ISO standards with Japanese technical codes, especially based on the domestic law is very important now. We investigated a 'Domestic construction - Performance criteria and verification' in 1995 as an example. We have found that construction standards are, not same as products standards, difficult to set down the numerical value. We propose settle qualitative standards for global consensus first, afterwards quantitative codes based on the domestic law. |
