Intelligent transport systems - ESafety - ECall end to end conformance testing for IMS packet switched based systems

This document defines the key actors in the eCall chain of service provision using IMS over packet switched networks (such as LTE/4G) as: 1) In-vehicle system (3.20) (IVS)/vehicle, 2) Mobile network Operator (MNO), 3) Public safety answering point (3.27) (PSAP), and to provide conformance tests for actor groups 1) - 3). NOTE 1 Conformance tests are not appropriate nor required for vehicle occupants (3.36), although they are the recipient of the service. NOTE 2 Third party eCall systems (TPS eCall) are not within the scope of this deliverable. This is because the core TPS-eCall (3.32) standard (EN 16102) does not specify the communications link between the vehicle and the TPS service provider (3.29). NOTE 3 These conformance tests are based an the appropriate conformance tests from EN 16454 which was published before Internet Protocol multimedia Systems (IMS) packet switched networks were available. This deliverable therefore replicates the appropriate tests from EN 16454 (and acknowledge their source); adapt and revise Conformance Test Protocols (CTP) from EN 16454 to an IMS paradigm; or provide new additional tests that are required for the IMS paradigm. Some 14 112-eCall (Pan European eCall) tests provided in EN 16454 are specific to GSM/UMTS circuit switched communications and not appropriate for the IMS paradigm and are therefore excluded from this deliverable. This document therefore provides a suite of ALL conformance tests for IVS equipment, MNO's, and PSAPS, required to ensure and demonstrate compliance to CEN/TS 17184. NOTE 4 Because in the event of non-viability or non-existence of an IMS supporting network at any particular time/location, IMS-eCall systems revert to CS networked eCall systems eCall via GSM/UMTS, IVS and PSAPs need to support, and prove compliance to both IMS and CS switched networks. The Scope covers conformance testing (and approval) of new engineering developments, products and systems, and does not imply testing associated with individual installations in vehicles or locations.

Intelligent transport systems - eSafety - eCall High level application protocols (HLAP) using IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) over packet switched networks

In respect of pan European eCall (operating requirements defined in EN 16072), this document defines the high level application protocols, procedures and processes required to provide the eCall service via a packet switched wireless communications network using IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) and wireless access (such as LTE, NR and their successors). This document assumes support of eCall using IMS over packet switched networks by an IVS and a PSAP and further assumes that all PLMNs available to an IVS at the time an eCall or test eCall is initiated are packet switched networks. Support of eCall where eCall using IMS over packet switched networks is not supported by an IVS or PSAP is out of scope of this document. At some moment in time packet switched networks will be the only Public Land Mobile Networks (PLMN) available. However as long as GSM/UMTS PLMNs are available (Teleservice 12/TS12) ETSI TS 122 003 will remain operational. Both the use of such PLMNs and the logic behind choosing the appropriate network in a hybrid situation (where both packet-switched and circuit-switched networks are available) are out of scope of this document. NOTE 1 The objective of implementing the pan-European in-vehicle emergency call system (eCall) is to automate the notification of a traffic accident, wherever in Europe, with the same technical standards and the same quality of services objectives by using a PLMN (such as ETSI prime medium) which supports the European harmonized 112/E112 emergency number (TS12 ETSI TS 122 003 or IMS packet switched network) and to provide a means of manually triggering the notification of an emergency incident. NOTE 2 HLAP requirements for third party services supporting eCall can be found in EN 16102. This document makes reference to those provisions but does not duplicate them.

Building valves - Combined temperature and pressure relief valves - Tests and requirements

This document specifies dimensions, materials and performance requirements, including test methods, for combined temperature and pressure relief valves, of nominal sizes from DN 15 to DN 40, having working pressures ) from 0,3 MPa (3 bar) to 1,0 MPa (10 bar). Combined temperature and pressure relief valves control and limit the temperature and pressure of the water contained in a hot water heater to the valves rating pressure and a temperature not exceeding 100 °C and will prevent water to steam formation when other temperature controls fail. Combined temperature and pressure relief valves are classified having a maximum opening temperature range from 90 °C to 95 °C for class A and 75 °C to 80 °C for class B. They are not intended to act as an expansion valve and do not control cold water flow. Alone it does not constitute the control functions for a water heater. A combined temperature and pressure relief valve is an independently mechanically operating device, therefore operating without an external energy source. NOTE The use of the device specified in this document does not override the need to use controls (e.g. thermostats and cut-outs) which act directly on the power sources of water heaters (for more information, see Annex B).

Thermal performance of building materials and products - Determination of thermal resistance by means of guarded hot plate and heat flow meter methods - Thick products of high and medium thermal resistance

This document specifies procedures to determine the thermal resistance of products whose thicknesses exceed the maximum thickness for guarded hot plate or heat flow meter apparatus. Most of the procedures described in this standard require apparatus that allows tests on specimens up to 100 mm thick . This document gives guidelines to assess the relevance of the thickness effect, i.e. to establish whether the thermal resistance of a thick product can or cannot be calculated as the sum of the thermal resistances of slices cut from the product, these guidelines complement the indications given in ISO 8302:1991[1] on the guarded hot plate apparatus. This document describes testing conditions which prevent the onset of convection which could take place in some products under the considered temperature differences and thicknesses.

Thermal performance of building materials and products - Determination of thermal resistance by means of guarded hot plate and heat flow meter methods - Products of high and medium thermal resistance

This document specifies principles and testing procedures for determining, by means of the guarded hot plate or heat flow meter methods, the thermal resistance of dry test specimens having a thermal resistance of not less than 0,5 m2·K/W. NOTE 1 The above limit is due to the effect of contact thermal resistances. An upper limit for measurable thermal resistance depends upon a number of factors described in this document, but a unique figure cannot be assigned. It applies in principle to any mean test temperature, but the equipment design in Annex D is essentially intended to operate between a minimum cooling unit temperature of -100 °C and maximum heating unit temperature of +100 °C. NOTE 2 Limits to the mean test temperature are only imposed by the materials used in the apparatus construction and by ancillary equipment. This document does not supply general guidance and background information (e.g. the heat transfer property to be reported, product-dependent specimen preparations, procedures requiring multiple measurements, such as those to assess the effect of specimen non-homogeneities, those to test specimens whose thickness exceeds the apparatus capabilities, and those to assess the relevance of the thickness effect). This document does not apply to cover measurements on moist products of any thermal resistance or measurements on thick products of high and medium thermal resistance.

Thermal performance of building materials and products - Determination of thermal resistance by means of guarded hot plate and heat flow meter methods - Dry and moist products of medium and low thermal resistance

This document specifies principles and testing procedures for determining, by means of the guarded hot plate or heat flow meter methods, the thermal resistance of test specimens either in the dry state or conditioned to equilibrium with moist air, having a thermal resistance of not less than 0,1 m2·K/W and a (hygro)thermal transmissivity or thermal conductivity up to 2,0 W/(m·K). NOTE The lower limit for measurable thermal resistance is due to the effect of contact thermal resistances, which require special testing techniques described in this document. Although this document can be used for testing dry specimens of high and medium thermal resistance, i.e. on products having a thermal resistance, that is, on products with a thermal resistance of at least 0.5 m².K/W, the simpler procedures of EN 12667[3] are available for such specimen. This document does not cover methods to assess the hygrothermal transmissivity of materials in the over-hygroscopic range (i.e. when free liquid water occurs in the material in general above 95% of moisture). It applies in principle to any mean test temperature, but the equipment design in Annex D is essentially intended to operate between a minimum cooling unit temperature of -100 °C and maximum heating unit temperature of +100 °C. This document does not supply general guidance and background information (e.g. the heat transfer property to be reported, product-dependent specimen preparations, suggested materials for vapour-tight envelopes when testing moist specimens, procedures requiring multiple measurements, such as those to assess the effect of specimen non-homogeneities, those to test specimens whose thickness exceeds the apparatus capabilities, and those to assess the relevance of the thickness effect).

Testing hardened concrete - Part 10: Determination of the carbonation resistance of concrete at atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide

This document specifies a method of determining the carbonation rate of a concrete, expressed in mm/√a. This document establishes a procedure where a standardized climate controlled chamber is used and where specimens are placed on a natural exposure site protected from direct rainfall. The standardized climate controlled chamber procedure is the reference method. These procedures are applicable for the initial testing of concrete, including those manufactured with slowly reacting binders, provided that the ages at which the carbonation depth is measured, the number of measurements required to calculate the carbonation rate, as well as the length of exposure to CO2, are appropriately selected, as described in this document. These procedures are not applicable for factory production control.
