- "The National Design Specification® for Wood Construction (NDS®) was first issued by the National Lumber Manufacturers Association (now the American Wood Council) (AWC) in 1944, under the title National Design Specification for Stress-Grade Lumber and Its Fastenings. By 1971, the scope of the Specification had broadened to include additional wood products. In 1977, the title was changed to reflect the new nature of the Specification, and the content was rearranged to simplify its use. The 1991 edition was reorganized in an easire to use "equation format", and many sections were rewritten to provide greater clarity." -- page iii.
