　　Mechanical Engineering Handbook is a large comprehensive reference book that systematically covers all major technologies of mechanical engineering. Coming into being in 1970s, the first edition is revised and updated in a second edition that gives more prominence to the notable specialties as “comprehensive, precise, up-to-date, accurate” to make it better satisfy needs of sci-tech development. Mechanical Engineering Handbook (the 2nd Edition) has 152 articles in 18 volumes that are broken into different parts such as basics, engineering materials, design, technique & equipment, electrotechnics-electronics & instrumentation, general mechanical products, special mechanical products etc.
　　Since Mechanical Engineering Handbook mostly publishes mechanical engineering writings in which lots of mechanical engineering terms, quantities, symbols, units etc. are used, and that National standard GB3100～3102－1993 regulates usages of quantities & symbols and so forth mainly for international or domestic application and is impossible to cover all industry specifics, some terms, quantities, units and so on certainly will have no standard to reference for application in the industry. To ensure that terms, quantities, symbols and units are standard, normal and uniform, the Editorial Department of Mechanical Engineering Handbook will standardize those that have not been provided in national standard in accordance with Mechanical Engineering Handbook standard in the process of editing and publishing.
