Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANS! Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. ‘The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does ‘aot in any respect prociude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. ‘The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard, Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American ‘National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Institute, Requests for interpretations should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on the title page of this standard.
