Target Values

The Finnish Society of Indoor Air Quality and Climate (FiSIAQ) introduced a Classification of Indoor Climate, Construction Cleanliness, and Finishing Materials in 1995. The Classification of Indoor Climate has been revised to meet the new Decree on indoor air quality and ventilation, European standards and experience from users of the classification. The most significant change is that target values for concentration and the in/out ratio of fine particles have been added. Other adjustments have been made to ensure good indoor environment and energy efficiency, but with reasonable investments. The criteria for emissions from building material and furniture were also updated. The Building Information Foundation RTS sr has run the M1-labelling of building products since 1996. The voluntary approach has been proven to improve the IAQ in new buildings and to reduce emissions from building materials. The Classification of Indoor Environment 2018 is integrated part of the new RTS Environmental Classification system.

Fire safety, as one of six basic requirements for structures in Slovakia, does not reflect the increase of innovative solutions during last years in the field of building industry. At the present time, energy economy of structures sets the character of structures forming the heat exchange envelope of the building. Continuous demand for the application of ecological materials increases requirements for optimizing the existing or creating new procedures in the solution of fire safety of structures. The existing classification of building structures appears, from the point of view of fire safety, as insufficient one. Comparative analysis of different structural compositions of external cladding is the method that demonstrates in this paper unsuitability of criteria set. The development of new procedures can make more effective and can optimize requirements without any negative impacts on resulting fire safety of the structure.

Preliminary Classification

To full utilization of crushed straw in civil engineering industry is necessary to know its technical parameters. During previous projects on VŠB – TUO, Faculty of Civil Engineering have found parameters like settlement, thermal conductivity or airborne sound insulation. The research on these parameters have had favorable results, therefore the research is going on and other characteristics of crushed straw are finding out. These days the research team deals with determination of important fire characteristics of crushed straw. Fire characteristics play substantial character by building materials and their design in buildings. Nature materials are generally regarded as flammable. If some material is pressed, the same rule as in the phonebook – if you ignite one sheet of paper, it burns. But if you try to ignite the whole phonebook, it will be not so easy. This article is reported the first step of research on the reaction to fire. This is the preliminary classification of crushed straw into reaction to fire. The test was made according to methods which are described below. There are some changes in methods due to different structures of crushed straw.

The Impact

Jednym z etapów wielowymiarowej analizy porównawczej obiektów jest wybór procedury normalizacji zmiennych. W literaturze prezentowanych jest wiele metod transformacji normalizacyjnej. Wybór jednej z nich jest jednym z najważniejszych etapów badania, bowiem może mieć znaczny wpływ na wynik analizy. W artykule wykorzystano i porównano trzy procedury normalizacji zmiennych przy budowie rankingów w oparciu o TMAI dla 15 spółek przemysłu materiałów budowlanych notowanych na Warszawskiej Giełdzie Papierów Wartościowych dla lat 2013 i 2014. Przeprowadzone badania wskazują, że stosowanie różnych wzorców normalizacji zmiennych może powodować zmianę wyników klasyfikacji firm, która nie wynika ani ze zmiany struktury danych finansowych, ani z poprawy efektywności ich działania.

The restoration of historical objects allows you to save and recreate cultural monuments for the present and future generations. The work provides information on the restoration process, restoration materials, principles of scientific restoration. Based on the example of dry building mixes and ceramic decor, the classification of restoration materials is given and the main technical properties are highlighted, the need for standardization of these materials with the involvement of specialists in the field of building materials science is shown. It is shown that general construction quality indicators do not fully reflect the requirements of restoration materials in terms of reproducing the authenticity of material and technology. A review of the regulatory framework in the field of restoration, including federal laws, codes of restoration rules, interstate, national and international standards, is given. The features and directions of the further development of standardization in the field of restoration materials are highlighted.
