This standard provides rules for the determination of design values for thermal conductivity and thermal resistance of both masonry and masonry products.
It also describes how the basic values for the calculation of design thermal values are determined and also the calculation methods to derive design values from basic values. It covers solid masonry units (clauses 4 and 5) and masonry units with formed voids and composite masonry units (clause 6).
Three procedures for the determination of thermal resistance and/or thermal conductivity are described. These procedures are:
- To use tabulated lambda - and/or R-values.
- To measure the lambda - and/or R-value.
- To calculate the equivalent lambda - and/or R-value.
It takes into account the major different types of masonry products:
- Solid masonry units.
- Masonry units with formed voids.
- Composite masonry units.
The design value of a product characteristic is the value determined for specific application and for use in calculations.
Design thermal values are determined, according to the procedure given in this standard by the user/designer and building authority according to the intended application, environmental and climatic conditions, bearing in mind the purpose of this determination, such as:
- energy consumption;
- design of heating and cooling equipment;
- surface temperature determination;
- compliance with national building codes;
- consideration of non steady state thermal conditions in buildings.
A specific building product can have different design thermal values according to the intended application. Normally the producers/distributors will supply design values for their products.

This European Standard applies to waste water drainage systems which operate under gravity. It is applicable for drainage systems inside dwellings, commercial, institutional and industrial buildings.
Differences in plumbing within Europe have led to a variety of systems being developed. Some of the major systems in use are described but this standard has not attempted to detail the intricacies of each system. Detailed information additional to that contained in this standard may be obtained by referring to the technical documents listed in annex A.
This first part of the standard establishes the general and performance requirements for waste water gravity drainage systems. It makes limited provision for pipework conveying trade effluent and for fluids removed by pumps.

This text, now in its second edition, offers an up-to-date, expanded treatment of the behaviour of polymers with regard to material variables and test and use conditions. It highlights general principles, useful empirical rules and practical equations.;Detailing the specific behaviour of many common polymers, the text: places emphasis on time and frequency dependence over temperature dependence; uses contemporary molecular mechanisms to explain creep, stress relaxation, constant strain rate responses and crazing; provides explicit equations to predict responses; supplies a discussion of large deformation multiaxial responses; compares statistical and continuum theories on the same data set; and updates stress-strain behaviour and particulate filled systems.

Milton Ohring's Engineering Materials Science integrates the scientific nature and modern applications of all classes of engineering materials. This comprehensive, introductory textbook will provide undergraduate engineering students with the fundamental background needed to understand the science of structure-property relationships, as well as address the engineering concerns of materials selection in design, processing materials into useful products, andhow material degrade and fail in service. Specific topics include: physical and electronic structure; thermodynamics and kinetics; processing; mechanical, electrical, magnetic, and optical properties; degradation; and failure and reliability. The book offers superior coverage of electrical, optical, and magnetic materials than competing text. The author has taught introductory courses in material science and engineering both in academia and industry (AT&T Bell Laboratories) and has also written the well-received book, The Material Science of Thin Films (Academic Press).

Dear friends,
I am looking for the following standards:
EN 998-1:2010
Specification for mortar for masonry - Part 1: Rendering and plastering mortar
This European Standard is applicable to factory made rendering/plastering mortar based on inorganic binders for external (rendering) and internal (plastering) use on walls, ceilings, columns and partitions. It contains definitions and final performance requirements.
It does not cover mortars where calcium sulphate binder is the principle active binding agent.
Calcium sulphate binder can be used as an additional binder together with air lime. If air lime is the principle active binding component, the rendering/plastering mortar is covered by this European Standard. If the calcium sulphate binder is the principle active binding component, the mortar is covered by EN 13279. The classification is carried out by the producer of the mortar.
Special fire resistant- and acoustical mortars, mortars for structural repair and surface treatments of building elements such as materials for smoothing or trueing, paints, coatings, thin-layer organic renders/plasters and prefabricated units (e.g. plaster boards) are not dealt with in this European Standard.
This European Standard covers rendering/plastering mortars defined in Clause 3 with the exception of site made rendering/plastering mortars. However, this European Standard or part of this European Standard may be used in conjunction with codes of application and national specifications covering site made mortars.
EN 998-2:2010
Specification for mortar for masonry - Part 2: Masonry mortar
This European Standard specifies requirements for factory made masonry mortars (bedding, jointing and pointing) for use in masonry walls, columns and partitions (e.g. facing and rendered masonry, load bearing or non-load bearing masonry structures for building and civil engineering).
This European Standard defines for fresh mortars the performance related to workable life, chloride content, air content, density and correction time (for thin-layer mortars only). For hardened mortars it defines e.g. performances related to compressive strength, bond strength, density measured according to the corresponding test methods contained in separate European Standards.
This European Standard provides for the evaluation of conformity of the product to this European Standard.
The marking requirement for products covered by this European Standard is included.
This European Standard covers masonry mortars defined in Clause 3 with the exception of site made mortars. However, this European Standard or part of this European Standard may be used in conjunction with codes of applications and national specifications covering site made mortars.
If somebody of you have them, please share them.
Thanks in advance.
Abstract
