This European Standard specifies requirements for automatically blast-cleaned and automatically
prefabrication primed structural steel products.
This European Standard does not cover manual blast cleaning and/or manual spray painting.
NOTE Where the steel is less than 5 mm thick, care should be exercised to ensure it is not deformed by blast
cleaning.

I am looking for the english version of the following standards:
1. EN ISO 13788:2002 "Hygrothermal performance of building components and building elements. Internal surface temperature to avoid critical surface humidity and interstitial condensation. Calculation methods"
and
2. EN 15026:2007 "Hygrothermal performance of building components and building elements. Assessment of moisture transfer by numerical simulation"
If someone of you have them, please share them.
Thanks in advance.

This comprehensive text covers the entire field of construction-induced vibrations, including the latest advances in earthquake engineering and nuclear blast protective design as well as construction and mine blasting. Frequency of vibration and strain form the foundation for the presentation of the material. The book also defines the major regulatory issues faced by those responsible for producing construction vibrations.

Shallow Foundations by Robert, E. Kimmerling (Author) for Federal Highway Administration
Product Description
This book is FHWA's primary reference of recommended design and procurement procedures for shallow foundations. It presents state-of-the-practice guidance on the design of shallow foundation support of highway bridges. The information is intended to be practical in nature, and to especially encourage the cost-effective use of shallow foundations bearing on structural fills. To the greatest extent possible, the document coalesces the research, development and application of shallow foundation support for transportation structures over the last several decades. Detailed design examples are provided for shallow foundations in several bridge support applications according to both Service Load Design (Appendix B) and Load and Resistance Factor Design (Appendix C) methodologies. Guidance is also provided for shallow foundation applications for minor structures and buildings associated with transportation projects.

The ENV version of Eurocode 2 Part 1 General Rules and Rules for Buildings has been around for some years as a draft for development. A National Application Document (NAD) was prepared to be used in conjunction with the ENV and together with the main document was published by BSI in 19921.
The intention was that this document would be trialled on real structures and it is referred to in Approved Document A of the Building Regulations. However use of the existing ENV is believed to have been very limited.
As part of the wider European Harmonisation process and linked to the requirements of the Construction Products Directive, considerable effort has been expended in recent years in converting the ENV version of the code into a full EN. The EN status means that eventually the code will become normative if and when it is accepted by formal voting. For practical purposes normative in the UK means that it will have the same status as and eventually replace BS8110.

This manual has been prepared to provide Washington State Department of Transportation
(WSDOT) bridge design engineers with a guide to the design criteria, analysis methods, and
detailing procedures for the preparation of highway bridge and structure construction plans,
specifications, and estimates.
It is not intended to be a textbook on structural engineering. It is a guide to acceptable
WSDOT practice. This manual does not cover all conceivable problems that may arise,
but is intended to be sufficiently comprehensive to, along with sound engineering judgment,
provide a safe guide for bridge engineering.
A thorough knowledge of the contents of this manual is essential for a high degree of
efficiency in the engineering of WSDOT highway structures.
This loose leaf form of this manual facilitates modifications and additions. New provisions
and revisions will be issued from time to time to keep this guide current. Suggestions for
improvement and updating the manual are always welcome.
All manual modifications must be approved by the Bridge Design Engineer.

[Thesis] Performance-Based Earthquake Engineering With The First-Order Reliability
Author: SMITHA DEVI KODURU | Size: 1.36 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: The University of British Columbia | Year: 2008
Performance-based earthquake engineering is an emerging field of study which complements the
prescriptive methods that the design codes provide to ensure adequate seismic performance of structures.
Accounting for uncertainties in the performance assessments forms an important component in this area.
In this context, the present study focuses on two broad themes; first, treatment of uncertainties and the
application of the first-order reliability method (FORM) in the finite-element reliability analysis, and
second, the seismic risk assessment of reinforced concrete structures for performance states such as,
collapse, and monetary loss. In the first area, the uncertainties arising from the inherent randomness in
nature (aleatory) and due to the lack of knowledge (epistemic) are identified. A framework for the
separation of these uncertainties is proposed. Following this, the applicability of FORM to the linear and
nonlinear finite-element structural models under static and dynamic loading is investigated. The case
studies indicate that FORM is applicable for linear and nonlinear static problems. Strategies are proposed
to circumvent and remedy potential challenges to FORM. In the case of dynamic problems, the
application of FORM is studied with an emphasis on cumulative response measures. The limit-state
surface is shown to have a closed and nonlinear geometric shape. Solution methods are proposed to obtain
probability bounds based on the FORM results. In the application-oriented second area of research, at
first, the probability of collapse of a reinforced concrete frame is assessed with nonlinear static analysis.
By modelling the post-failure behaviour of individual structural members, the global response of the
structure is estimated beyond the component failures. The final application is the probabilistic assessment
of monetary loss for a high-rise shear wall building due to the seismic hazard in the Cascadia Subduction
zone. A 3-dimensional finite-element model of the structure with nonlinear material models is subjected
to stochastic ground motions in the reliability analysis. The parameters for stochastic ground motion
model are developed for Vancouver, Canada. Monetary losses due to the damage of structural and nonstructural
components are included.

Author: Noor, F. A.; Boswell, L. F. | Size: 8.52 MB | Format:CHM | Publisher: Spon (Elsevier) | Year: 1992 | pages: 357 | ISBN: 9780203974742
This book is a comprehensive guide to the techniques and materials for accurate small-scale modelling with chapters by leading international researchers and engineers. In particular, impact, earthquake and dynamic problems are presented for the first time covering reinforced and pre-stressed concrete.
In order to determine the behaviour of engineering processes, components or structures, numerical or physical modelling is usually undertaken. The physical modelling of a reinforced concrete structure is a typical example in which the model represents a complete structure or part of a structure. The scale of a model should be as large as possible but practical laboratory constraints will dictate the model size.
