About This Item
TS ISO 17724 is a vocabulary standard for the field of graphical symbols. It defines terms relating to graphical symbols, especially symbols used for public information, symbols used on equipment, and safety signs. In practice, it provides a common technical language for describing and classifying symbols rather than prescribing how the symbols themselves must be drawn.
Why a shared vocabulary matters
Graphical symbols are visual communication tools designed to be quickly recognized and, in many cases, understood across language barriers. Public information symbols are used for wayfinding, guidance, and general communication in shared spaces. Equipment symbols support the safe and correct use of machinery, devices, and systems. Safety signs standardize messages about hazards, mandatory actions, prohibitions, and emergency-related information. By defining the terminology around these symbol families, the standard helps users, designers, and documentation specialists apply the same concepts consistently.
Defined boundary of the document
The scope explicitly excludes terms relating to graphical symbols for diagrams and technical product documentation symbols. This means the document focuses on the terminology of general-purpose symbols and signs, while leaving diagram-specific symbol terminology outside its coverage. That distinction is important because different symbol families serve different communication functions and are used in different technical contexts.
