This article describes the contruction de novo of a set of subject
headings covering the disciplines of mechanical engineering, and associated
subject areas of relevance to the work of a company of engineering consultants
operating in the field of automotive engineering and of heavy duty engine

the nature of the set, which aims to encompass the primary terminology
and the major concepts in the subject fields addressed, but cannot claim
to reflect the elaborate structure of a traditional thesaurus. The reasons
for this shortfall are discussed in the article.

set out to find a solution.
