Metallic materials - Charpy pendulum impact test - Part 2: Verification of testing machines (ISO/DIS 148-2:2025)

ISO 148-2:2016 covers the verification of pendulum-type impact testing machines, in terms of their constructional elements, their overall performance and the accuracy of the results they produce. It is applicable to machines with 2 mm or 8 mm strikers used for pendulum impact tests carried out, for instance, in accordance with ISO 148‑1. It can be applied to pendulum impact testing machines of various capacities and of different design. Impact machines used for industrial, general or research laboratory testing of metallic materials in accordance with this part of ISO 148 are referred to as industrial machines. Those with more stringent requirements are referred to as reference machines. Specifications for the verification of reference machines are found in ISO 148‑3. ISO 148-2:2016 describes two methods of verification. a) The direct method, which is static in nature, involves measurement of the critical parts of the machine to ensure that it meets the requirements of this part of ISO 148. Instruments used for the verification and calibration are traceable to national or international standards. b) The indirect method, which is dynamic in nature, uses reference test pieces to verify points on the measuring scale for absorbed energy. The requirements for the reference test pieces are found in ISO 148‑3. A pendulum impact testing machine is not in compliance with this part of ISO 148 until it has been verified by both the direct and indirect methods and meets the requirements of Clause 6 and Clause 7. ISO 148-2:2016 describes how to assess the different components of the total energy absorbed in fracturing a test piece. This total absorbed energy consists of - the energy needed to fracture the test piece itself, and - the internal energy losses of the pendulum impact testing machine performing the first half-cycle swing from the initial position. NOTE Internal energy losses are due to the following: - air resistance, friction of the bearings of the rotation axis and of the indicating pointer of the pendulum which can be determined by the direct method (see 6.4.5); - shock of the foundation, vibration of the frame and pendulum for which no suitable measuring methods and apparatus have been developed.

Testing hardened concrete - Part 11: Determination of the chloride resistance of concrete, unidirectional diffusion

This document describes a method for determining the unidirectional apparent chloride diffusion coefficient and surface concentration of conditioned specimens of hardened concrete. The test method enables the determination of the chloride penetration after a specified length of curing and length of exposure to NaCl solution. Since resistance to chloride penetration depends on ageing which includes the effects of continual hydration and interactions with the chloride solution, then the apparent diffusion coefficient also changes with age. A procedure to determine this ageing, expressed here by an ageing exponent, is included in this document and described in Annex A. The test procedure does not apply to concrete with surface treatments such as silanes and it does not apply to concrete containing fibres (see E.1).

Human Resource Management — Safe Handling of Data

This standard establishes guidelines for organizations in the safe handling of HRM data. This standard pertains to data derived for, from, or used within HRM activities and processes. This standard applies to both for- and non-profit organizations of any size and applies in all sectors and geographies. This standard covers the safe handling of HRM data, in any format, whether collected, maintained, or used by a Human Resources department or an alternative party such as third parties, vendors, or non-HR departments (e.g., Finance, Operations, etc.). This standard concerns only the safe handling of HRM data; characteristics of the HRM data itself such as the quality, reliability, and validity are not within the scope of this standard (See ISO/FDIS 30435:2023 Workforce Data Quality). This standard includes the safe handling of data related to any individual for whom information (regardless of format) is utilized as part of the HRM data life cycle. This may include past and present employees, contractors, directors/board members, applicants, and formerly or indirectly associated individuals. It does not include privacy for customers, suppliers, or other third parties when the data exists outside of HRM (See ISO 27001 and 27002 for data privacy standards non-specific to HRM data and ISO 38505 IT Governance for standards related to data governance in general). In addition to the safe handling recommendations for HRM data included within this standard, other standards may provide additional guidance and actions recommended for the general management and protection of certain types of HRM data. For example, ISO 10667 (Assessment service delivery - Procedures and methods to assess people in work and organizational setting) focuses on the systematic method and procedure for ascertaining or measuring work‑related knowledge, skills, abilities, performance, or other characteristics of an individual or group of individuals provides suggestions for ensuring assessment participants' data protection and appropriate use of personal data.
