Environmental management. Vocabulary
BS ISO 14050:2009
Communication is essential in the implementation and operation of environmental management systems. This communication will be most effective if there is a common understanding of the terms used. BS ISO 14050 contains concepts and their definitions as used in the ISO 14000 series of international standards related to environmental management. BS ISO 14050 provides you with a compilation of the terms and definitions in use in the field of environmental management. It is also of use to standards developers, particularly those involved with translation, as an aid to maintaining consistency. This standard is written in the three official ISO languages (English, French and Russian), but also gives the equivalent terms in Spanish, Arabic, German, Finnish, Italian, Dutch, Norwegian, Portuguese and Swedish.

Standard Practice for Infiltration and Exfiltration Acceptance Testing of Installed Corrugated High Density Polyethylene Pipelines
F2487-06
1. Scope 1.1 This practice covers procedures for testing installed non-perforated, gasketed corrugated high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipelines using either water infiltration or exfiltration acceptance limits to demonstrate the integrity via the level of leakage of the installed materials, construction procedures and installation qualityvia the level of leakage. Pipe to be tested under this practice shall include corrugated HDPE drainage pipe meeting the requirements of AASHTO M 252, AASHTO M 294 and Specification F 2306/F 2306M. Note 1 The performance criteria specified in this standard may be used for other plastic pipe products. The engineer, however, must assess if the testing procedures are adequate for the particular material and installation being considered. Note 2 The user of this practice is advised that test criteria presented in this practice are similar to those in general use. Pipe, 600-mm (24-in.) diameter or larger, may be accepted by visual inspection when testing for infiltration. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values in parentheses are mathematical conversions to inch-pounds, which are provided for informational purposes only and are not considered standard. 1.3 This test method shall be performed on lines after all connections and service laterals have been plugged and braced adequately to withstand the test pressures. The time between completion of the backfill operations and testing shall be specified by the approving authority. 1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. The testing required under this standard necessitates operating in confined spaces. The user must insure that all OSHA and local safety codes are duly observed.  ID: 735

Standard Practice for Determining the Number of Constrictions m of Non-Woven Geotextiles as a Complementary Filtration Property
D7178-06
1. Scope 1.1 This practice describes the procedure used along with existing test method to determine the number of constrictions m of mechanically bonded non-woven geotextiles, based on thickness, mass per unit area and fiber properties 1.2 The number of constrictions is a property of non-woven geotextiles, which is complementary to opening size to predict their filtration behavior. It can be used to differentiate non-woven geotextiles with similar opening sizes but different structures (thickness, weight, fiber diameter, etc.). However, more research is needed to assess its significance when comparing two products with different opening sizes. 1.3 Consideration of the number of constriction is relevant in filtration applications where piping or clogging concerns are to be controlled with a high level of confidence, that is, for filters applications in critical soils. 1.4 This standard is for design purposes only and is not intended for quality control purposes. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  ID: 711

Articles for industrial uses. Recommendation for the use of geotextiles and geotextiles related products.
NF G38-061
La presente norme est l'expression des recommandations pour l'emploi des geotextiles et produits apparentes dans les systemes de drainage et de filtration. Elle definit les caracteristiques hydrauliques des geotextiles et produits apparentes utilises en drainage et filtration, les divers roles que ceux-ci peuvent jouer, les parametres des sols a prendre en compte en consequence et specifie les techniques de mise en oeuvre a respecter. L'objet de cette norme est de definir les specifications hydrauliques et les points particuliers de mise en oeuvre des geotextiles utilises comme filtre ou comme drain dans les systemes de drainage et de filtration des ouvrages suivants : -- ouvrages hydrauliques : digues, barrages, canaux ; -- dispositifs d'etancheite de bassins, reserves d'eau, canaux... -- ouvrages de terrassements : remblais, deblais, stabilisation des versants naturels... -- voies de circulation : chaussees, voies ferrees, pistes d'aerodrome... -- ouvrages d'art : ponts, soutenements, tunnels... -- fondations de batiments... -- aires de stockage, parcs de stationnement ; -- aires de loisirs, espaces verts, terrains de sport. Les utilisations en drainage agricole et en decharges ne sont pas traitees dans la presente norme.  ID: 269

Articles for industrial uses. Recommandation for the use of geotextiles and geotextile related products. Use of geotextiles and geotextile related products under embankment on compressive soils.
NF G38-063
La presente norme est l'expression des recommandations pour l'emploi des geotextiles et produits apparentes sous les remblais fondes sur des sols compressibles. Elle specifie les techniques de mise en oeuvre a respecter lorsque le geotextile joue l'un ou plusieurs des roles suivants : anticontaminant, filtrant, drainant, mecanique. La presente norme definit les specifications des geotextiles et produits apparentes a mettre en oeuvre a la base de remblais sur sols compressibles pour des cas types appartenant au domaine d'application. La presente norme s'applique a tous les cas de remblais sur sols compressibles associant un geotextile a la base dont le role principal peut etre anticontaminant, filtrant ou drainant. Le geotextile peut jouer en outre un role mecanique pour la mise en oeuvre de la premiere couche de remblai. Dans le cas d'un role mecanique de renforcement global de l'ouvrage l'application de la presente norme doit etre accompagnee de l'application de la norme G 38-064. Pour le cas particulier des geotextiles utilises dans les techniques de drainage vertical sous remblais, on se reportera a la norme G 38-061. La presente norme ne s'applique pas aux cas des remblais sur sols karstiques, aux ouvrages hydrauliques tels que les digues ou barrages.  ID: 271
