Bituminous mixtures - Test methods - Part 12: Determination of the water sensitivity of bituminous specimens

This document specifies three test methods for determining the effect of saturation and accelerated water conditioning: - method A uses the indirect tensile strength of cylindrical specimens of bituminous mixtures; - method B uses the compression strength of cylindrical specimens of bituminous mixtures; - method C defines the bonding value for a bituminous mixture 1 h after mixing, where the bonding of bitumen and aggregate can be equated to a bonding value. Method C is suitable for soft asphalt with bitumen of kinematic viscosity at 60 °C of 4 000 mm2/s or less. These methods can be used to evaluate the effect of water on asphalt mixtures with or without anti-stripping additives including liquids, such as amines; and fillers, such as hydrated lime or cement.

Rough-terrain trucks - Safety requirements and verification - Part 1: Variable-reach trucks

This document specifies the safety requirements of self-propelled rough-terrain variable-reach trucks (hereafter referred to as trucks), intended to handle loads, equipped with a telescopic lifting means (pivoted boom), on which a load handling device (e.g. carriage and fork arms) is fitted. For the purpose of this document, rough-terrain variable-reach trucks are designed to transport, lift and place loads and can be driven on unimproved terrain. Fork arms are considered to be part of the truck. Trucks can also be equipped with a variety of attachments (e.g. bale spikes, mowers, sweepers). This document deals with all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the trucks when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Annex A). This document does not apply to: — slewing rough-terrain variable-reach trucks covered by EN 1459 2:2015+A1:2018; — rough-terrain variable-reach tractors covered by prEN 17968:2025; — industrial variable reach trucks covered by EN ISO 3691 2:2023; — lorry-mounted variable-reach trucks covered by ISO 20297 1:2017; — variable-reach trucks fitted with tilting or elevating operator position; — mobile cranes covered by EN 13000:2010+A1:2014; — machines designed primarily for earth moving, even if their buckets and blades are replaced with forks (see EN 474 series); — trucks designed primarily with variable length load suspension elements (e.g. chain, ropes) from which the load may swing freely in all directions; — trucks designed primarily for container handling; — trucks on tracks; — trucks with articulated chassis; — attachments.

Water quality - Technetium-99 - Part 2: Test method using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) (ISO/DIS 22125-2:2026)

Warning — Persons using this document should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This document does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices. Warning — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted in accordance with this document be carried out by suitably qualified staff. This document specifies methods to determine 99Tc by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS) in supply water, drinking water, rainwater, surface and ground water, marine water, as well as cooling water, industrial water, domestic, and industrial wastewater after proper sampling, handling, and test sample preparation. The detection limit depends on the sample volume, the instrument used, the background count rate, the detection efficiency, the counting time, and the chemical yield. The detection limit of the methods described in this document, using currently available ICP-MS instrumentation, is approximately 0,2 ng·l−1 to 0,5 ng·l−1 (0,1 Bq·l−1 to 0,3 Bq·l−1), which is much lower than the WHO criteria for safe consumption of drinking water (100 Bq·l−1)[4]. The methods presented in this document are not intended for the determination of ultratrace amount of 99Tc. The methods described in this document are applicable in the event of an emergency situation, but not if 99mTc is present at quantities that could cause interference. Filtration of the test sample is necessary for the methods described in this document if suspended solids are present. The analysis of 99Tc adsorbed to suspended matter is not covered by this method. The analysis of the insoluble fraction requires a mineralization step that is not covered by this document. In this case, the measurement is made on the different phases obtained. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure the validity of this test method for the water samples tested.

Plastics — Intrinsic biodegradability — Criteria and test methods

This document defines test methods and criteria for distinguishing intrinsically biodegradable plastic materials from those that are persistent. Biodegradability is inferred from biodegradation tests conducted under aerobic conditions, i.e. under the conditions typically found in most natural habitats. Plastics that undergo ultimate biodegradation under aerobic conditions in a manner similar to natural polymer materials are defined as biodegradable plastics. This document describes a method for distinguishing between non-biodegradable plastics, which do not biodegrade even when environmental conditions are favourable for biodegradation (including aerobic conditions), and biodegradable plastics, i.e. those that biodegrade upon contact with active microorganisms when environmental conditions are favourable for biodegradation. The aim is to demonstrate ultimate aerobic biodegradability of plastic materials, i.e. the intrinsic potential for conversion to carbon dioxide, water and biomass by aerobic microorganisms in an oxygen-rich environment, which is representative of most natural environments. The potential for biodegradation should be verified using alternative tests and criteria, if a deposition in a permanent anaerobic environment (e.g. deep subsurface environments, wetlands and swamps, anoxic zones in oceans and lakes) is expected. NOTE Currently, there are no methodologies or criteria available to verify accumulation due to the lack of biodegradation of plastics in such anaerobic habitats. The plastic materials identified as intrinsically biodegradable following this document can be used in the design of products with a high risk of dispersion whenever the use of biodegradable components is searched by the designer. Intrinsically non-biodegradable components are not susceptible to biodegradation and therefore cannot be removed from the environment by the action of micro-organisms. This factor tends to increase the residence time of products in the environment. In addition, their eventual degradation, mainly due to abiotic factors, results in persistent fragments (microplastics). The test scheme described in this document is not specific to any particular application. Rather, it is a framework methodology that can be used in different industries to identify biodegradable plastics that can be used to make different types of products and for different applications. For the characterisation and environmental assessment of products placed on the market containing plastics identified as biodegradable according to this document, reference is made to the specific product standards, where available. This document only deals with the definition of intrinsic biodegradability of plastic materials, without defining the hazard of the products, which requires a specific assessment that is beyond the scope of this document. The rate of biodegradation of a plastic object as a function of environmental conditions cannot be determined from this document. Therefore, this document is not sufficient to carry out an analysis of the ecological risk associated with the dispersal of products, as this requires an assessment of the intrinsic hazard, of the environmental fate, in addition to the assessment of biodegradability. The methodology described in this document does not apply to applications covered by mandatory regulations.
