The Society's widespread chapters offer to members and to industry, a medium for pooling and exchanging data and experience at local and regional levels, fostering a higher degree of efficiency in mass properties engineering. Regular chapter, regional, and international meetings provide opportunities for mass properties engineers to meet and to discuss mutual problems, procedures and specifications, thus broadening their individual horizons and becoming better informed.
