A VDI guideline can encompass various parts. A new guideline is usually classified as Part 1. Individual parts can be revised or withdrawn. The revised version needs to pass an evaluation process, and it is classified as a draft until acceptance. Older or withdrawn versions of a VDI guideline are still available; however, the newest version is recommended to be referred to
