Why carpenter amateur necessary furniture GOST

Let's first see what the GOST.

GOST - State Standard, one of the main categories of standards set by the state system of standardization in the USSR. (Great Soviet Encyclopedia)

Initially, in 1940, the abbreviation meant GOST "All-Union State Standard ". Then in 1968 it came to mean "USSR State Standard"- to a lesser extent similar to the abbreviation. And from 1992 to the present day the guests are already more similar to the definition and meaning "interstate standard."

Initially standards were divided into mandatory and recommended. In 1940, for failure to comply mandatory standards has been introduced criminal liability for up to 8 years in prison. In 1984, it softened the punishment to the administrative and compliance with GOST 2011 already is a recommendation.

Now look, but why carpenter amateur may need to guests.

Usually an amateur has no special education and knowledge of the carpenter's shop gets from books, magazines, the Internet, from other people.

Products with which begins carpentry lover, initially simple and repeat any ready-made items. But then, with the acquisition of some experience it is interesting to design something different, original.

And then we can say that if you do a unique product, then why look at some standards for them?

In my opinion, GOST can still come in handy in this case. They can be seen as Reference to determine the basic dimensions and design features.

For example here is a stool:

In GOST 13025.2-85 Household furniture. Functional dimensions furniture for sitting and lying. You can find the main dimensions of this stool, and there is also a note: "In the kitchen stool 650 mm high and more needs to be support for the feet. "

Or for example it is a chair.

In the same place You can find information about sizes of sofas and chairs for relaxing.

seat depth for the seats taken out to the table and for the rest of 450-600 mm is recommended.

These guides will also help determine the size, tables, cabinets, beds chairs. There are even GOST size mirrors in the furniture products.

Here are a few links to the guests on the furniture. Look may be helpful.
