Pretty common with industry norms and standard unfortunately...

  I agree. It's done, ostensibly, to distribute the cost of creating and publishing the standard. This is not being done correctly, access should be generally available to safety standards for reasons of promoting safe practices. No or very few individuals pay for personal access to standards, it's a business expense paid paid by you or your firm. Allowing non-profit use would not change their main source of revenue.
