Manuals and Monographs Library
If it’s practical, hands-on application information you need or advanced and highly technical information, ASTM’s Manuals and Monographs are your answer.
The entire collection of ASTM Manuals and Monographs can be at your fingertips with a subscription to just these specific publications.
Manuals are practical books offering the reader hands-on, applied information. They are heavily illustrated, contain a good deal of useful guidance, and include detailed references for complete background information. Some manuals offer “behind-the-scenes” details on ASTM standards—how and why the standards were developed, including their significance and use. They illustrate tips for conducting tests and practical advice.
Monographs are resource documents for advanced level specialists and cover highly technical topics. They focus on very specific aspects of a larger topic, or niche subjects. Often, monographs offer valuable theory in one focused area to a technically sophisticated audience.
