FEM 1.001 (10.1998), 3rd Edition, Rules for the design of hoisting appliances, 8 booklets, english, pages: 305, PDF Format

Detalhes

European harmonisation of internal market legislation through the so-called new and old approach directives applicable to the FEM industries (Machinery, Electromagnetic Compatibility, Pressure Equipment, Explosive Atmosphere …), and to a certain extent through environmental requirements (Noise Emissions for Outdoor Equipment, Emissions from Non-road Mobile Machinery…) has increased the need for standards and technical guidelines.
To ensure optimum safety and full compliance with legal requirements, FEM has made and continues to make an important contribution to the work of standardisation bodies CEN/ISO, by attending meetings and drafting recommendations on the technical issues and aspects of direct relevance to the FEM industries. Many of these recommendations form the backbone of established CEN/ISO standards. Others give guidance to engineers for design and construction of safe, durable and ergonomic handling equipment.

The sixth edition of An Illustrated Guide to Electrical Safety provides all the text and changes to 29 CFR 1910 Subpart S implemented by OSHA in 2007, including a new, easy-to-use, cross-reference to find new and renumbered sections. These changes have been documented and commented on to synchronize the requirements of OSHA to the 2011 National Electrical Code, as well as coordinating 29 CFR 1926 Subpart K requirements for construction. While OSHA did not revise the Safety-Related Work Practices section of Subpart S, the Illustrated Guide harmonizes the OSHA requirements with latest NFPA 70E – Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace, 2012 Edition.
Over 130 illustrations are used to explain the revised OSHA requirements, and the updated analysis provides the reader with insights into how to implement OSHA requirements for a safer workplace, and even the history of some requirements. ISBN 978-1-885581-59-4.

Detalhes

With genuine Munsell color chips
 
The new 2009 revision of the Munsell Soil Color Charts is available. 

This new revision of the soil book contains all of the colors that have been available in the past plus these additional pages:

• Munsell high value, low chroma ‘White’ Page, used for describing carbonate,silica, gypsum, and soluble salt precipitates and evaporates common to arid and semi-arid environments and verylight-colored parent materials,such as diatomaceous earth and volcanic ash.The White Page shows half steps from 8.5 to 9.5 in value with chromas of 1 and 2 for N, 7.5YR , 10YR, and 2.5Y
• 10Y and 5GY Soil chart for glauconitic soils
• 5R soil chart forAustralia and Southeast Asia
• 7.5R soil chart for tropical and semi–tropical soils


About The Munsell Soil Color Chart

All of the soil color charts will be included with each 2009 new revision. With the introduction of the latest revision, X-Rite will no longer be selling individual pages of the Munsell Soil Color Charts. Based on customer needs, X-Rite has improved on the washable version of the Munsell Soil Color Charts through the use of new design and materials. Color chips are now flush with the paper of each page, eliminating the edges and extending the life of color chips because dirt and debris are easily wiped away. In addition, X-Rite has used water resistant materials to perform better in the field under damp or wet conditions.

Many new and revised requirements in the 2014 NEC® impact residential, commercial, and industrial electrical installations.
The 2014 NFPA 70®: NEC® covers the latest requirements on electrical wiring and equipment installation issues, including minimum provisions for the use of connections, voltage markings, conductors, and cables. Chapters address specific circumstances surrounding special occupancies and industrial equipment and machines. It also contains specific details on the safe installation and use of communications and signaling conductors.
All requirements in the National Electrical Code® are confirmed through a rigorous process of comprehensive review, markup, annotation and revision. The NEC has been published since 1897, and in that time the code and its accompanying National Electrical Code Handbook have undergone radical restructuring to reflect the latest electrical and wiring technologies.
The 2014 edition of the NEC has been revised to include important changes such as:
– Expanded AFCI and GFCI protection in homes
– Continued emphasis on making installations safe for electrical workers
– Coverage of new methods to distribute low voltage power
– New approaches toward ensuring safety of photovoltaic (PV) electric systems
– Changes to the long-standing voltage thresholds used in the Code
– Plus hundreds of others that allow for the safe implementation of the latest in electrical system and equipment technology.
Stay ahead with the 2014 NEC’s safety updates and time-tested, trusted guidance.
Electrical hazards result in many thousands of accidents in residences and commercial spaces each year. NFPA 70: National Electrical Code is the nation’s singular code for safe electrical installation. Over its 100+ years of publication, the NEC has become the most trusted electrical standard throughout much of the world, lending considerable weight to its authoritative collection of code requirements. As time moves forward, so does the NEC. The 2014 edition added four all-new Articles on growing technologies such as:
– Low Voltage Direct Current Distribution Systems (Article 393)
– Modular Data Centers (Article 646)
– Fire Resistive Cable Systems (Article 728)
– Energy Management Systems (Article 750)
The NEC 70 provides the most comprehensive set of rules for all types of electrical wiring and equipment.
The Code’s charter is broad, covering electrical conductors, equipment, and raceways for a wide array of spaces and premises. This includes all public and private buildings, homes, and structures; outdoor yards and lots; installations that connect to the power grid; and utility equipment. Major changes in the NEC also respond to electrical safety concerns with respect to NFPA 70E®: Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace®, such as new centralized locking requirements, field marking of equipment, and hazard warning labels.
Get up-to-code with the new 2014 National Electrical Code from NFPA!
NFPA 70 is the foundation of all electrical wiring and practice in the United States, and going without the latest edition creates a needless risk. Protect lives and property from electrical dangers and buy the 2014 National Electrical Code today. (Softbound, Approx. 950 pp., 2014)
