BRIEF HISTORY
The IS0 Recommendation R 1685, Shipbuilding details - Multi-purpose chocks of cast steel, was drawn up
by Technical Committee ISOlTC 8, Shipbuilding details, the Secretariat of which is held by the Nederlands
Normaiisatie-instituut ("1).
Work on this question led to the adoption of Draft IS0 Recommendation No. 1685, which was circulated to
all the IS0 Member Bodies for enquiry in October 1968. It was approved by over 60 % of the votes cast.
However, in view of important comments involving the technical substance of this Draft, the ISO/TC 8
Secretariat decided to withdraw the document, and drew up a second Draft IS0 Recommendation No. 1685.
The latter was circulated to all the IS0 Member Bodies for enquiry in January 1971. It was approved, subject
to a few modifications of an editorial nature, by the following Member Bodies :
Australia India Norway
Belgium Israel Poland
Czechoslovakia Italy Romania
France Japan Thailand
Germany Netherlands U.A.R.
Greece New Zealand United Kingdom
No Member Body opposed the approval of the second Draft.
This second Draft IS0 Recommendation was then submitted by correspondence to the IS0 Council, which
decided to accept it as an IS0 RECOMMENDATION.
