Arrangement (Information about the filing sequence or logical order of the record)
-
Arrangement
Reports were given serial numbers, prefixed in most cases by an abbreviation of the name of the issuing department. Large gaps appear in the numbering of the earlier series of reports because it was the practice to assign blocks of numbers to sections of a department and not all of these were used. From August 1964 all series of Technical Reports and Technical Notes were consolidated into a single RAE Technical Reports Series.
