This document describes the basic requirements for the verification of ultimate and serviceability limit states and the resistance to fatigue either of the noise barrier or its components by means of analytical methods and/or tests.
Analytical methods can be used for the determination of the characteristic values and design values.
Where sufficient information is not available, the analytical procedure can be combined with results from tests.
This document provides the following types of test procedures:
- test on small samples for defining detail categories, which might not be covered by Eurocodes (verification procedure A);
- test on a global element for defining the limit state against fatigue (verification procedure B);
- full scale tests under a given representative loading (verification procedure C) to determine fatigue resistance of the noise barrier components for defined loading conditions; verification procedure C is given as alternative to verification procedures A and B.

The present document specifies the Service Information (SI) data which forms a part of Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) bitstreams, in order that the user can be provided with information to assist in selection of services and/or events within the bitstream, and so that the Integrated Receiver Decoder (IRD) can automatically configure itself for the selected service. SI data for automatic configuration is mostly specified within ISO/IEC 13818-1 [1] as Program Specific Information (PSI). The present document specifies additional data which complements the PSI by providing data to aid automatic tuning of IRDs, and additional information intended for display to the user. The manner of presentation of the information is not specified in the present document, and IRD manufacturers have freedom to choose appropriate presentation methods. It is expected that Electronic Programme Guide (EPG) will be a feature of Digital TeleVision (TV) transmissions. The definition of an EPG is outside the scope of the present document (i.e. the SI specification), but the data contained within the SI specified in the present document may be used as the basis for an EPG. Rules of operation for the implementation of the present document are specified in ETSI TS 101 211 [i.1].

The scope of this TR is a Public Transport common glossary to harmonise terms and definitions from existing data dictionaries.
The methodology consisting of highlighting the differences between various use contexts arises from a number of factors, many of them practical:
1) The facts of history. Many of the legislations, as noted (especially EU Regulations, EC Delegated Regulations and EC Implementing Decisions), already have mandatory application of varying scope, and the regulatory bodies would be most unlikely to consider it worthwhile to actually modify them in line with some list of precise terms developed after the fact.
2) The diversity of practices and use-cases which have been included in the Public Transport domain. Especially as a result of the need for this domain to cover multi-modality and developing technologies, and the increasing requirement for Public Transport to interact with wider domains such as Road Traffic Management, there are bound to be some deeply embedded terms which have been used in different senses in different domains.
3) The differing nature and working practices involved in the legislative, regulatory and technical standardisation processes, and their relationship both to one another and to real-world implementors of Public Transport services.
4) The prior existence of a well-established and precise set of Conceptual Models, including terms and definitions, in the Transmodel ecosystem. This is self-consistent and clearly defined and is being maintained on a continuous basis. However, its use in a legislative context is by “delegation”, which may do little to decrease the possibility of regulations themselves making use of some terms in a sense not intended by Transmodel itself.
The format of the glossary will be structured around following sections:
-   Contexts: Summary of the contexts in which the term or phrase is defined.
-   Related terms: Phrases in which the term is used, either as an element in a compound (e.g. the term “access” vs “access right” or where a related term is used which carries a notably different association (e.g. the term “access” vs “accessibility”, where the latter has a precise meaning in some contexts).
-   Concept: Where it is possible to identify a unifying concept among the various definitions. An informal or explanatory summary of that concept. Where it is not possible, a note of that fact.
-   Harmonisation: Containing references and links to the definitions in their contexts and the suggested conventions for citing them in contexts other than those where they are defined.
-   Source references: Links to definitions of the exact term in their contexts.
-   Usage recommendations: Recommendations for how the terms should be cited in contexts outside that in which the term is defined.

This document describes a method for storing data in a PDF file that correspond to the processing steps of printed products. This method has three parts: metadata identifying processing steps; limitations on the interaction between PDF graphics objects that are part of a processing step and other PDF graphics objects; limitations on PDF graphics objects in processing steps. This method is intended to be generic, i.e. not specific to packaging and labels. In addition, this document defines the following packaging- and label-specific groups of processing steps data: data corresponding to finishing steps, such as cutting, folding or glueing; braille; information panels; indications of physical dimensions; indications of intended positions of graphical elements; printed white, for example on transparent or metallic surfaces; printed varnish; primer; printing plate making.

This document is published as a dual logo standard and is applicable for the explosion protection requirements for the construction, testing and marking for Group I Ex Equipment that can be an individual item, or be an assembly of multiple items of Ex Equipment and Ex Components forming mining machinery. The standard atmospheric conditions (relating to the explosion characteristics of the atmosphere) under which it can be assumed that Ex Equipment can be operated are: - temperature −20 °C to +60 °C; - pressure 80 kPa (0,8 bar) to 110 kPa (1,1 bar); and - air with normal oxygen content, typically a volume fraction of 21 %. This part of ISO/IEC 80079 applies for Ex Equipment and Ex Components with Explosion Protection Levels (EPLs) Ma and Mb. This document supplements and modifies the general requirements of IEC 60079‑0. Where a requirement of this document conflicts with a requirement of IEC 60079-0, the requirement of this document takes precedence. This document can be used for guidance on underground applications where firedamp or coal dust can be present, but which are not Group I mines, for example tunnels. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision.

We provide licenses to standards documents adopted by Slovenian Institute for Standardization (SIST). These are exactly the same as original works but are preceded by cover pages acknowledging their adoption. For instance, the international standard document ISO 8601:2013 is adopted by European Committee for Standardization (CEN) as the European Standard document EN ISO 3166-1:2014 and subsequently adopted by SIST as Slovenian Standard document SIST EN ISO 8601-1:2014.

Yes, the intended recipient for which a license has been granted may print documents for their personal use. No other persons may print, receive, inspect, duplicate, or otherwise consume printed material. 

Documents are licensed to individuals and must not be made accessible to any person who the license was not purchased for (including the purchaser). This would preclude posting the documents in any manner that would allow distribution. This includes but not exclusively public or private network shares, wikis, FTP, messaging services, etc.

A license grants 1 persons exclusive access to purchased document in perpetuity. Licenses are not transferable. If for instance you have team of five individuals that need access to a document then five licenses must be purchased, one for each member.
