This European Standard provides guidance, and where appropriate defines procedures, for variations of certain parameters and factors associated with the design of internal and external loadbearing walls that have been tested in accordance with EN 1365-1. Data from historic standard fire resistance tests may be used as supporting information. Manufactured stone masonry units according to EN 771-5 and natural stone units according to EN 771-6 are not covered. This European Standard is not valid for reinforced masonry.

This document specifies a test method for the determination of the content of chlorophenol-based preservative agents in textile materials and articles composed of textile products, by chromatography.

This document describes a procedure for the identification of meat and meat products derived from mammalia and poultry to the level of genus or species. The identification of meat species is carried out by PCR amplification of either a segment of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (cytb) [1] or the cytochrome c oxidase I gene (COI) [2], or both, followed by sequencing of the PCR products and subsequent sequence comparison with entries in databases [3], [4]. The methodology allows the identification of a large number of frequently used as well as exotic meat species in foodstuffs. The decision whether the cytb or COI gene segment or both are used for meat identification depends on the declared meat species, the applicability of the PCR method for the meat species and the availability of comparative sequences in the public databases. This method has been successfully validated on raw meat, however, laboratory experience is available that it can also be applied to processed meat products. This document is usually unsuitable for the analysis of highly processed foods with highly degraded DNA where the fragment lengths are not sufficient for amplification of the targets. Furthermore, it is not applicable for complex meat products containing mixtures of two or more meat species.

This document describes a procedure for the identification of single bivalves to the level of genus or species.
The identification of bivalve species is carried out by PCR amplification of a segment of the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene [1], [2] followed by sequencing of the PCR products and subsequent sequence comparison with entries in databases [5]. The methodology allows the identification of a large number of commercially important bivalve species.
This method has been successfully validated on raw mussels, however, laboratory experience is available that it can also be applied to processed, e.g. cold smoked, hot smoked, salted, frozen, cooked, fried, deep-fried samples.
This document is usually unsuitable for the analysis of highly processed foods, e.g. tins of mussels, with highly degraded DNA where the fragment lengths are not sufficient for amplification of the targets. Furthermore, it is not applicable for complex seafood products containing mixtures of two or more bivalve species.

This document specifies requirements and test methods for the fire safety of candle accessories, as well as safety information ‎and requirements on how safety information will be displayed. The safety requirements and test methods specified in this document are intended to cover the most common risks. This document does not specify requirements or test methods for uncommon risks arising from the unforeseen combination of accessories and candles.

This document describes a laboratory test method to determine the susceptibility of thermal insulation products used for construction against mould growth under specified climatic conditions. The method is applicable to both factory-made products and in situ formed products. Factory-made products include panels, mats, and rolls. In situ formed products are usually those that are delivered loose and installed by blowing-in, poring, or spraying-on, using water and/or binder, whether or not they are also treated using additives. Depending on the insulation manufacturer, the test is carried out with one of the conditions in Table 1. This condition is linked to worst case scenarios selected from real hygrothermal conditions that reflect the end use conditions experienced by insulation products, and to short test duration for mould test. This test method determines the susceptibility of a thermal insulation material to mould growth, but does not determine the suitability for use in a given design (wall, roof, etc.). This method does not predict the resistance of an insulation product to accidental water exposure resulting in saturation of the product (water damage).

This document defines minimum requirements for the design and performance of power assisted stretchers used in road ambulances for the treatment and transportation of patients. It aims to ensure patient safety and minimize the physical effort required by staff operating the equipment.

This document defines the minimum requirements for the design and performance of power assisted chairs, which are used for the conveyance of patients to and/or from road ambulances. It aims to ensure patient safety and to minimize the physical effort required by staff operating the equipment.

This part of EN 508 specifies requirements for self-supporting products for roof covering, wall cladding, lining, liner tray and tile products for discontinuous laying made from stainless steel sheets with or without additional metallic and/or organic coatings. Sheets intended to be used with insulation and membranes are also covered.
This document establishes general characteristics, definitions, classifications and labelling for the products, together with requirements for the materials from which the products can be manufactured. It is intended to be used either by manufacturers to ensure that their products comply with the requirements or by purchasers to verify that the products comply before they are dispatched from the factory. It specifies the requirements for products which enable them to meet all normal service conditions.
This document applies to all discontinuously laid self-supporting external profiled sheets for roof covering, wall cladding, lining, liner trays and tile products with the exception of tiles with a surface area less than 1 m2 and produced by stamping. These profiled roof sheets are designed to keep wind, rain and snow out of the building and to transfer any resultant loads and infrequent maintenance loads to the structure.
This document does not cover products for structural purposes, i.e. it does cover products used in structural class III (according to EN 1993-1-3), it does not cover products used in constructions of structural classes I and II (according to EN 1993-1-3) intended to contribute to the global or partial stability of the building structure by providing racking resistance or resistance to permanent static loads (excluding self-weight of the metal sheet).
No requirements for supporting construction, design of roof or cladding, lining, tile system and execution of connections and flashings are included.

ISO 7637-1:2015 defines the basic terms relating to electrical disturbances from conduction and coupling used in the other parts of ISO 7637. It also gives general information on the whole ISO 7637 series.

This standard is part 8 of the series ISO 18674, as described in ISO 18674-1: Part 1. General rules for the methods and rules for measurement of normal forces and loads from tieback, bracing, struts and other elements like piles in geotechnical engineering or more general in foundation engineering are given
