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.

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.

Fine ceramics (advanced ceramics, advanced technical ceramics) - Thermophysical properties of ceramic composites - Determination of unidimensional thermal diffusivity by flash method (ISO/DIS 19629:2026)

This document describes the flash method for the determination of thermal diffusivity of ceramic matrix composites with continuous fibre reinforcement. In order to conform with the unidimensional heat transfer hypothesis, the experimental conditions are defined such that the material behaves in a homogeneous manner. This involves performing tests in one symmetry axis of the composite. The method is applicable to materials which are physically and chemically stable during the measurement, and covers the range of temperature from 100 K to 2 800 K. It is suitable for the measurement of thermal diffusivity values in the range 10−4 m2∙s−1 to 10−7 m2∙s−1.

Information technology - Cabling installation - Part 2: Installation planning and practices inside buildings

This document specifies requirements for the following aspects of information technology cabling: a) planning; b) installation practice. This document is applicable to all types of information technology cabling inside buildings (and can be applied to cabling that is defined as part of the building) including generic cabling systems designed in accordance with the EN 50173 series. NOTE Planning and installation of certain types of application-specific cabling can be supplemented by other standards e.g. EN 63044–6 for Home Building Electronics System (HBES) and Building Automation and Control Systems (BACS). The requirements of Clauses 5, 6 and 7 of this document are premises-independent unless amended by the requirements of premises-specific clauses. This document: 1) contains requirements and recommendations for satisfactory installation and operation of information technology cabling; 2) describes the methodology for the assessment of spaces, pathways (and pathway systems) and cabling (either installed or planned) in support of remote powering objectives; 3) excludes specific requirements applicable to other cabling systems (e.g. power supply cabling); however, it takes account of the effects other cabling systems have on the installation of information technology cabling (and vice versa) and gives general advice; 4) excludes those aspects of installation associated with the transmission of signals in free space between transmitters, receivers or their associated antenna systems. This document is applicable to certain hazardous environments. It does not exclude additional requirements which are applicable in particular circumstances, defined by e.g. electricity supply and electrified railways. Safety (electrical safety and protection, optical power, fire protection, etc.) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements are outside the scope of this document and are covered by other standards and regulations. However, information given in this document can be of assistance in meeting these standards and regulations.
