  EN 998-1:2010 and EN 998-2:2010 Specification for mortar for masonry
Posted by: ir_71 - 12-17-2010, 06:35 PM - Forum: Archive - Replies (3)

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.

  Mirror links
Posted by: Grunf - 12-17-2010, 06:59 AM - Forum: FAQs, Q&A, comments - No Replies

Dear members,

Once there was a question raised about posting mirror links. Question similar to this:

Quote:Should we make mirror links inspite Kowheng and Grunf makes mirror links faster then all other members of this forum? The two of them makes response to most (if not to all) threads with dead links.

The answer is YES. You are more then welcome to make mirror links for download material posted to CivilEA. Mirror links keeps threads alive. There is a possibility that Kowheng's or links made by me become dead/ inactive/ deleted in time, but yours can be those good ones and alive.

Because of some situations here - I have to say this - please post your mirror links (just new ones, made by you and with related info) according to the rules of this forum. If you are not sure on how to post correctly, just look to some Forum Staff posts and post like them or in similar way. Still if you aren't sure on how to make one good post, you are always free and welcome to contact Forum Staff (Admin, Protectors, Moderators, etc.)

Lets keep this forum alive!


Best regards,
Grunf

BS EN 10343:2009 Steels for quenching and tempering for construction purposes — Technical delivery conditions

Author: Technical Committee ECISS/TC 23 | Size: 0.4 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: CEN | Year: 2009 | pages: 38 | ISBN: 978 0 580 56129 0

[Image: 17370428118373711414.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

the construction industry:
bars (including hammer-forged bars);
wide flats;
hot-rolled strip and sheet/plate;
forgings.
They are manufactured from the direct hardening non alloy steels for quenching and tempering and the direct
hardening alloy steels for quenching and tempering and supplied in one of the heat treatment conditions given
for the different types of products in Table 1.
These steels are generally intended for the manufacture of quenched and tempered parts, but can also be
used in the normalized condition.
The requirements for mechanical properties are restricted to part sizes given in Tables 4 and 5.
NOTE 1 In accordance with EN 10020, the steels covered by this standard are quality and special steels. The
differences between quality and special steels are characterized by the following requirements, which are valid for special
steels only:
 the minimum impact values in the quenched and tempered condition (for non alloy special steels in the case of mean
percentages by mass of carbon < 0,50 % only);
 limited oxide inclusion content;
 lower maximum contents for phosphorus and sulphur.
NOTE 2 This standard does not apply for bright steel products.
NOTE 3 This standard only applies for the manufacture of products without any further cold or hot forming and no
additional heat treatment, i.e. the properties are according to the delivery condition (+N, +QT).
In addition to the specifications of this European Standard, the general technical delivery conditions given in
EN 10021 will be applicable unless otherwise specified

  Energy Simulation in Building Design
Posted by: ir_71 - 12-17-2010, 05:53 AM - Forum: Analysis & Design - Replies (2)

Energy Simulation in Building Design

Author: Joseph Clarke | Size: 19.4 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: BUTTERWORTH HEINEMANN | Year: 2001 | pages: 384 | ISBN: 978-0-7506-5082-3

[Image: 28199828766320842267.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

Since the appearance of the first edition of 'Energy Simulation in Building Design', the use of computer-based appraisal tools to solve energy design problems within buildings has grown rapidly. A leading figure in this field, Professor Joseph Clarke has updated his book throughout to reflect these latest developments. The book now includes material on combined thermal/lighting and CFD simulation, advanced glazings, indoor air quality and photovoltaic components. This thorough revision means that the book remains the key text on simulation for architects, building engineering consultants and students of building engineering and environmental design of buildings. The book's purpose is to help architects, mechanical & environmental engineers and energy & facility managers to understand and apply the emerging computer methods for options appraisal at the individual building, estate, city, region and national levels. This is achieved by interspersing theoretical derivations relating to simulation within an evolving description of the built environment as a complex system. The premise is that the effective application of any simulation tool requires a thorough understanding of the domain it addresses.

Audience:
Senior undergraduate and postgraduate students of building design engineering, architecture, computer aided engineering, environmental engineering and mechanical engineering at senior undergraduate and postgraduate level. Energy and facilities managers, simulation consultants and architects.
