This European Standard provides a framework for the specification of hard industrial bitumens used mainly in
flooring, varnishes, mineral rubber, roofing and mastic.
Within Europe several types of hard industrial bitumen are used, and dependent upon traditional practices,
different grades may be used for the same purpose. The framework given in this European standard provides
a basis for quality agreements to be established between supplier and client.
The hard industrial bitumen products are graded by the limits of the ring and ball softening point values,
expressed as multiples of 5, and are characterised by an H in front of the values.

The syllabi for training courses that cover the conventional NDT methods are available in IAEA-TECDOC-628. This TECDOC covers the conventional methods of liquid penetrant testing, magnetic particle testing, eddy current testing, radiographic testing, ultrasonic testing, visual inspection and leak testing. Based on these syllabi, training course notes have been produced to cover Industrial Radiography (IAEA Training Course Series No. 3) and Ultrasonic Testing of Materials at Level 2 (IAEA Training Course Series No. 10). These training course notes deal predominantly with the NDT of metallic materials. While NDT of metallic materials is a very important application, NDT is being used increasingly for the inspection of concrete structures. Training Course Series Nos. 3 and 10 cover the inspection of concrete using the relevant NDT method; however, coverage is brief and does not present the whole range of NDT methods used for the NDT of concrete. Concrete has become a very common construction material in most IAEA Member States and problems have occurred because of faulty construction practice. A need was therefore identified for a guidebook on the NDT of concrete. The first IAEA Training Course on the NDT of Concrete and other Non-Metallic Materials was held in 1987 in Japan, at the Japanese Society for Non-Destructive Inspection. Subsequent courses/workshops were held in Thailand and Singapore. In 1998, AFRA national co-ordinators prepared a draft syllabus on the NDT of Concrete. This syllabus was circulated for comment to national co-ordinators in other IAEA projects. R.S. Gilmour (Australia) compiled the first draft of the training material, which was circulated to the national NDT co-ordinators for the NDT subproject in different RCA countries. IAEA experts discussed the amendments made to this draft at a Meeting on the NDT of concrete in the Malaysian Institute for Nuclear Technology (MINT), Malaysia in September 1999. During the compilation of this manuscript, guidance and support were provided by Abd Nassir Ibrahim from Malaysia and G. Singh from India. The IAEA officer responsible for this publication was A.A. Khan of the Division of Physical and Chemical Sciences.

BS 9250:2007 provides guidance on methods that can be used to meet the “well sealed ceiling” requirements for cold and warm pitched roofs.
Applicable to architects, house builders, and building control officers it outlines robust design details for the construction of more airtight ceilings and for the control of air movement into pitched roofs.
BS 9250 provides guidance for dwellings and domestic buildings on the selection of materials, design principles, construction methods and design details covering: the junction of walls and ceilings; junctions of ceiling materials; penetration through ceilings (e.g. pipes, outlets, cables, light fittings, loft hatches, tubular rooflights and roof windows). It also includes cold and warm roof applications and will apply to new, and the refurbishment of existing, buildings.
