Eurocode 9 - Design of aluminium structures - Part 1-5: Shell structures

1.1 Scope of EN 1999-1-5 (1) EN 1999-1-5 applies to the structural design of aluminium structures, stiffened and unstiffened, that have the form of a shell of revolution or of a round panel in monocoque structures. (2) EN 1999-1-5 covers additional provisions to those given in the relevant parts of EN 1999 for design of aluminium structures. NOTE Supplementary information for certain types of shells is given in EN 1993-1-6 and the relevant application parts of EN 1993 which include: - Part 3-1 for towers and masts; - Part 3-2 for chimneys; - Part 4-1 for silos; - Part 4-2 for tanks; - Part 4-3 for pipelines. (4) The provisions in EN 1999-1-5 apply to axisymmetric shells (cylinders, cones, spheres) and associated circular or annular plates, beam section rings and stringer stiffeners, where they form part of the complete structure. (5) Single shell panels (cylindrical, conical or spherical) are not explicitly covered by EN 1999-1-5. However, the provisions can be applicable if the appropriate boundary conditions are duly taken into account. (6) Types of shell walls covered in EN 1999-1-5 can be (see Figure 1.1): - shell wall constructed from flat rolled sheet with adjacent plates connected with butt welds, termed “isotropic”; - shell wall with lap joints formed by connecting adjacent plates with overlapping sections, termed “lap-jointed”; - shell wall with stiffeners attached to the outside, termed “externally stiffened” irrespective of the spacing of stiffeners; - shell wall with the corrugations running up the meridian, termed “axially corrugated”; - shell wall constructed from corrugated sheets with the corrugations running around the shell circumference, termed “circumferentially corrugated”. [Figure 1.1 - Illustration of cylindrical shell form] (7) The provisions of EN 1999-1-5 are intended to be applied within the temperature range defined in EN 1999-1-1. The maximum temperature is restricted so that the influence of creep can be neglected. For structures subject to elevated temperatures associated with fire, see EN 1999-1-2. (8) EN 1999-1-5 does not cover the aspect of leakage. 1.2 Assumptions (1) The general assumptions of EN 1990 apply. (2) The provisions of EN 1999-1-1 apply. (3) The design procedures are valid only when the requirements for execution in EN 1090-3 or other equivalent requirements are complied with. (4) EN 1999 is intended to be used in conjunction with: - European Standards for construction products relevant for aluminium structures; - EN 1090-1, Execution of steel structures and aluminium structures - Part 1: Requirements for conformity assessment of structural components; - EN 1090-3, Execution of steel structures and aluminium structures - Part 3: Technical requirements for aluminium structures.

Metallic materials - Unified method of test for the determination of quasistatic fracture toughness (ISO 12135:2021, including corrected version 2022-08)

This document specifies methods for determining fracture toughness in terms of K, δ, J and R-curves for homogeneous metallic materials subjected to quasistatic loading. Specimens are notched, precracked by fatigue and tested under slowly increasing displacement. The fracture toughness is determined for individual specimens at or after the onset of ductile crack extension or at the onset of ductile crack instability or unstable crack extension. In cases where cracks grow in a stable manner under ductile tearing conditions, a resistance curve describing fracture toughness as a function of crack extension is measured. In some cases in the testing of ferritic materials, unstable crack extension can occur by cleavage or ductile crack initiation and growth, interrupted by cleavage extension. The fracture toughness at crack arrest is not covered by this document. Special testing requirements and analysis procedures are necessary when testing weldments, and these are described in ISO 15653 which is complementary to this document. Statistical variability of the results strongly depends on the fracture type, for instance, fracture toughness associated with cleavage fracture in ferritic steels can show large variation. For applications that require high reliability, a statistical approach can be used to quantify the variability in fracture toughness in the ductile-to-brittle transition region, such as that given in ASTM E1921. However, it is not the purpose of this document to specify the number of tests to be carried out nor how the results of the tests are to be applied or interpreted.

Water quality - Plutonium and neptunium - Test method using ICP-MS (ISO/DIS 20899:2026)

This document specifies methods to determine the 239Pu, 240Pu, 241Pu and 237Np by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The mass concentrations obtained can be converted into activity concentrations. Due to its relatively short half-life and 238U isobaric interference, 238Pu can hardly be measured by this method. To quantify 238Pu isotope by mass spectrometry, other techniques can be used (ICP-MS with collision-reaction cell, ICP-MS/MS with collision-reaction cell or chemical separation). Alpha spectrometry measurement, as described in ISO 13167,[8] is currently used[9]. The method is applicable to test samples of supply/drinking water, rainwater, surface and ground water, marine water, as well as cooling water, industrial water, domestic, and industrial wastewater after proper sampling and handling, and test sample preparation. A chemical separation of Np and Pu, with quantitative removal of all other elements (including uranium, americium, etc.) is mandatory, given all the potential interferences that may bias the measurement or lead to false positives. Chemical separations can eliminate most of the 238U. However, use of reagents, glassware, and atmosphere for the chemical separation, will also add 238U to the samples and prevent measurement of 238Pu. The limit of detection 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 method described in this document, using currently available ICP-MS apparatus, is approximately 1 mBq·l-1 for 239Pu, 240Pu, 237Np and 1 Bq·l-1 for 241Pu, which is lower or of the same order of magnitude than the WHO criteria for safe consumption of drinking water (1 mBq·l-1 for 239Pu, 240Pu, 237Np and 10 Bq·l-1 for 241Pu[4]).This method covers the measurement of those radionuclides in water at activity concentrations between approximately[10][11]: — 1 mBq·l−1 to 5 Bq·l−1 for 239Pu, 240Pu and 237Np; — 1 Bq·l−1 to 5 Bq·l−1 for 241Pu. Samples with higher activity concentrations than 5 Bq·l−1 can be measured if a dilution is performed. The higher is the concentration factor, the lower are the LD and LQ expressed in Bq/L of water. A preconcentration is especially useful for the quantification of 241Pu that is usually the less abundant isotope of plutonium. The method described in this document is applicable in the event of an emergency situation. Filtration of the test sample is necessary. The analysis of 239Pu, 240Pu, 241Pu and 237Np 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 performed separately on each phase or the total phase. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure the validity of this test method for the water samples tested.

Fertilizers, liming materials and inhibitors - Determination of the phosphonates content by ion chromatography and conductivity detection (IC-CD)

This document specifies a method for the extraction and determination of phosphonates (P-PO3) in fertilizers, liming materials and inhibitors using ion chromatography and conductivity detection (IC-CD). This document is applicable to fertilizing product blends, where the blend is a mix of at least two of the following components, fertilizers, liming materials, soil improvers, growing media, inhibitors and plant biostimulants, and where the following category, fertilizers, liming materials and inhibitors, is the highest % in the blend by mass or volume, or in the case of liquid form, by dry mass. If fertilizers, liming materials and inhibitors is not the highest % in the blend, the European Standard for the highest % of the blend applies. In case a fertilizing product blend is composed of components in equal quantity, the user decides which standard to apply. NOTE Variations in analytical methods for fertilizing product blends can lead to differing results as some components or matrix interactions can affect the outcome. Validation procedures have shown that developed standard methods are robust and reliable across diverse product compositions, but possible interferences and unexpected results when analysing fertilizing product blends are possible.

Residual current operated circuit-breakers without integral overcurrent protection for household and similar uses (RCCBs) - Part 1: General rules

This document gives general requirements and tests for residual current operated circuit-breakers without integral overcurrent protection for household and similar uses (hereafter referred to as RCCBs), for rated operational voltages not exceeding 440 V AC, with rated frequencies of 50 Hz, 60 Hz or 50/60 Hz and rated currents not exceeding 125 A, intended principally for protection against shock hazard. RCCBs are intended to provide fault protection (previously referred to as protection against indirect contact), the exposed conductive parts of the installation being connected to an appropriate earth electrode. They are also intended to be used to provide protection against fire hazards due to a persistent earth fault current. RCCBs having a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA are used for fault protection and additional protection in the case of failure of the protective provisions against electric shock. This document applies to RCCBs performing simultaneously the functions of detection of the residual current, of comparison of the value of this current with the residual operating value and of opening of the protected circuit when the residual current exceeds this value. RCCBs are intended to be operated by ordinary or uninstructed persons and designed not to require maintenance. The requirements of this document apply for standard conditions (see 7.1). Additional requirements can be necessary for RCCBs used in locations which have severe environmental conditions. RCCBs within the scope of this document are intended for use in an environment with pollution degree 2 (see 7.3). RCCBs are suitable for isolation. Special precautions (e.g. surge protective devices) can be necessary when excessive overvoltages are likely to occur on the supply side (for example in the case of supply through overhead lines, see IEC 60364-4-44 and IEC 60364-5-53). RCCBs, with the exception of those with an uninterrupted neutral, are suitable for use in IT systems. RCCBs of the general type are resistant to current surges, including the case where surge voltages (as a result of switching transients or induced by lightning) cause loading currents in the installation without occurrence of flashover. RCCBs of type S are considered to be sufficiently resistant against unwanted tripping even if the surge voltage causes a flashover and a follow-on current occurs. Particular requirements are necessary for RCCBs intended to be used at frequencies other than 50 Hz or 60 Hz. For RCCBs incorporated in, or intended for association with socket-outlets only, the requirements of this document can be used, as far as applicable, in conjunction with the requirements of IEC 60884-1 or the national requirements of the country where the product is placed on the market. This document does not apply to: – RCCBs the current setting of which is adjustable without a tool; – RCCBs including batteries. This document is not intended to be used alone; it is intended to be used in conjunction with the relevant product standard, IEC 61008-2-1 or IEC 61008-2-2.
