Standards
This terminology is a compilation of definitions of technical terms used in the plastic piping industry. Terms that are generally understood or adequately defined in other readily available sources are not included. When a term is used in an ASTM document for which Committee F17 is responsible it is included only when judged, after review , by Subcommittee F17.91 to be a generally usable term.
This standard establishes the basic principles for carrying out vibration measurement and processing data, with regard to evaluating vibration effects on buildings. The evaluations of the effects of building vibration are primarily directed at structural response, and include appropriate analytical methods where the frequency, duration and amplitude can be defined. It only deals with the measurement of structural vibration and excludes the measurement of airborne sound pressure and other pressure fluctuations.
This standard defines working positions and makes it possible to locate welds in space with reference to the horizontal reference plane (usually parallel to the workshop floor) by means of angles of slope and rotation which are independent from surrounding construction.
This standard gives recommendations on the serviceability of buildings against vibrations. It covers three recipients of vibrations: a) human occupancy in buildings and on pedestrian bridges; b) the contents of the building; c) the structure of the building. It applies to buildings, pedestrian bridges and walkways found within buildings or connecting them and does not include bridges that carry vehicular traffic, nor the design of foundations or supporting structures of machinery.
Within the general scope defined in Section I, ANSI/ASME B30.17 applies to overhead and gantry cranse with a top running bridge, of single-girder construction, utilizing one or more underhung hoists (see ANSI B30.16) operating on the bottom flange of the bridge girder. This Standard includes both power-driven and hand-operated equipment.
This standard describes the properties of mercury the nature of hazards associated with it and essential information on its storage, handling packing , labelling disposal of waste and personal preventive measures.
This Japanese Standard specifies the seat belt assembles for automobiles, hereinafter referred to as the “Seat belt” to accommodate one adult and to be fitted principally to forward facing seat for the purpose of protecting the wearer from injury in the event of a traffic accident.
This standard sets out guidelines parameters which will be used to monitor the effluent quality for different types of industries operating in Guyana. This standard does not apply to industrial operations of mining, forestry operations and agricultural infiltration, seepage and run-off. This standard is expected to operate under the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations on Water Quality Management
