BS ISO 15392:2008 Sustainability in building construction. General principles
With the growing importance of sustainable development, the strategies for addressing sustainability in building construction are essentially local and differ in context and content from region to region. These strategies will reflect the context, the preconditions and the priorities and needs, not only in the built environment, but also in the social environment. This social environment includes social equity, cultural issues, traditions, heritage issues, human health and comfort, social infrastructure and safe and healthy environments. It may, in addition, particularly in developing countries, include poverty reduction, job creation, access to safe, affordable and healthy shelter, and loss of livelihoods.
This international standard on sustainability in building construction identifies and establishes general principles for sustainability in building construction. It is based on the concept of sustainable development as it applies to the life cycle of buildings and other construction works, from their inception to the end of life.
BS ISO 15392 is applicable to buildings and other construction works individually and collectively, as well as to the materials, products, services and processes related to the life cycle of buildings and other construction works.
The building and construction sector is highly important for sustainable development because:
It is a key sector in national economies
It has a significant interface with poverty reduction through the basic economic and social services provided in the built environment and the potential opportunities for the poor to be engaged in construction, operation and maintenance
It is one of the single largest industrial sectors and, while providing value and employment, it absorbs considerable resources, with consequential impacts on economic and social conditions and the environment
It creates the built environment, which represents a significant share of the economic assets of individuals, organizations and nations, providing societies with their physical and functional environment
It has considerable opportunity to show improvement relative to its economic, environmental and social impacts.
BS ISO 15392 establishes internationally recognized principles for sustainability in building construction and establishes a common basis for communication of the information required. Interested parties, such as product manufacturers and designers will then be able to provide information. Such information can then be communicated internationally and to a wide range of target audiences, extending from policy makers and regulators to manufacturers, building owners and consumers.
The aim of BS ISO 15392 is to set out the objectives for sustainability in building construction and from these derives general principles. This International Standard forms the basis for deriving evaluation criteria and indicators for the assessment of the contribution of buildings to sustainable development, and it enables decision makers to apply the principles in their decision making.
BS ISO 15392 does not provide levels (benchmarks) that can serve as the basis for sustainability claims. It is also not intended to provide the basis for assessment of organizations or other stakeholders.

EN 545:2010 Ductile iron pipes, fittings, accessories and their joints for water pipelines. Requirements and test methods
This European Standard specifies the requirements and associated test methods applicable to ductile iron
pipes, fittings, accessories and their joints for the construction of pipelines outside buildings:
to convey different types of water (e.g. raw water, treated water, re-used water) for all types of
applications (e.g. water intended for human consumption, for fire protection, for snow making, for
irrigation, for hydro-electricity etc.);
with or without pressure;
to be installed below or above ground.
This European Standard is applicable to pipes, fittings and accessories which are:
manufactured with socketed, flanged or spigot ends;
supplied externally and internally coated;
suitable for fluid temperatures between 0 °C and 50 °C, excluding frost;
not intended for use in areas subject to reaction to fire regulations.
This does not preclude special arrangements for the products to be used at higher temperatures.
This European Standard covers pipes and fittings cast by any type of foundry process or manufactured by
fabrication of cast components, as well as corresponding joints and accessories, in a size range extending
from DN 40 to DN 2 000, inclusive.
This European Standard specifies requirements for materials, dimensions and tolerances, mechanical
properties and standard coatings of ductile iron pipes and fittings. It also gives performance requirements for
all components including joints. Joint design and gasket shapes are outside the scope of this standard.
In addition, reference is made to the minimum performance requirements of couplings, flange adaptors and
saddles manufactured for use with ductile iron pipes and fittings.
NOTE In this European Standard, all pressures are relative pressures, expressed in bars (100 kPa = 1 bar).

The Draft Code of Practice for Demolition of Buildings was first issued in February 1998 to provide guidance on safe and good practices for demolition works and for compliance with the requirements of the relevant provisions of the Building (Administration) Regulations and Building (Demolition works) Regulations relating to demolition works.
Throughout the years since its adoption, the Draft Code has been well received by the practitioners. Besides, they have been offering valuable comments on the use of the Draft Code based on their experience gained from its application. The Buildings Department has considered and adopted their constructive views in the present review of the Draft Code which has thus been refined and adopted as this Code of Practice.
The Code contains basic information for the practitioners on better planning and control when carrying out demolition works. It also includes the latest development of the regulatory control on site supervision for demolishing complex structures. This Code should be read and used in conjunction with the Buildings Ordinance and the aforesaid Regulations when preparing demolition plans for approval by the Building Authority. Users of the Code should exercise their own professional judgement in the application of this Code in selecting the most suitable demolition method.

Flexible Multibody Dynamics (Solid Mechanics and Its Applications 176) O. A. Bauchau
Flexible Multibody Dynamics (Solid Mechanics and Its Applications 176)
O. A. Bauchau
Springer English 2010
ISBN: 9400703341
728 pages PDF 8 MB
# Presents a unified treatment of rigid and flexible multibody dynamics
# Includes analysis software
# Advances in computational tools in multibody dynamics are making finite element based formulations increasingly popular
# Many of the multibody dynamics books on the market focus on classical formulations based on rigid body dynamics, floating frame of reference, and modal approximations
The author developed this text over many years, teaching graduate courses in advanced dynamics and flexible multibody dynamics at the Daniel Guggenheim School of Aerospace Engineering of the Georgia Institute of Technology.
The book presents a unified treatment of rigid body dynamics, analytical dynamics, constrained dynamics, and flexible multibody dynamics. A comprehensive review of numerical tools used to enforce both holonomic and nonholonomic constraints is presented. Advanced topics such as Maggi’s, index-1, null space, and Udwadia and Kalaba’s formulations are presented because of their fundamental importance in multibody dynamics. Methodologies for the parameterization of rotation and motion are discussed and contrasted. Geometrically exact beams and shells formulations, which have become the standard in flexible multibody dynamics, are presented and numerical aspects of their finite element implementation detailed. Methodologies for the direct solution of the index-3 differential-algebraic equations characteristic of constrained multibody systems are presented. It is shown that with the help of proper scaling procedures, such equations are not more difficult to integrate than ordinary differential equations.
This book is illustrated with numerous examples and should prove valuable to both students and researchers in the fields of rigid and flexible multibody dynamics.
