Corrosion of metals and alloys — Evaluation of selective corrosion of Cu alloys and grey cast iron for power plant components by visual inspection and hardness measurement

Corrosion des métaux et alliages — Évaluation de la corrosion sélective des alliages de cuivre et des fontes grises dans les composants des centrales électriques par examen visuel et mesure de la dureté

ISO 17918:2015 specifies procedures of on-site detection and evaluation in order to determine the effects of material deterioration such as material loss from the components and structures that are sensitive to selective corrosion in industrial facilities, including nuclear power plants.

The methodology involves visual inspection and hardness measurements in situ complemented by sample removal. These procedures include (a) representative sampling of components sensitive to selective corrosion, (b) the visual inspection, and (c) the hardness test, respectively. For an exact analysis, additional laboratory testing is recommended.

The methodology is most applicable to grey cast iron and copper alloy with more than 15 % zinc. Extension to other alloys requires supportive evidence of validation.

Assessment criteria orientated to the nuclear power plant application during the past five years before the end of extended operation define the necessity for further engineering evaluation and action like, for example, further sampling, higher frequency of inspection, and component repair or exchange.

This specification is not applicable for components used where the representative sampling of surfaces in contact to the fluid is not detectable optically or detected with the portable hardness tester. Also, in case of non-representative component selection like in HVAC or building service application, this specification is not applicable. For components not used in nuclear power plant, the assessment criteria have to be agreed by the parties. Assessment criteria of hardness test alone is not applicable to the evaluation of structural integrity of Al-bronze, NAB, and Cu-Ni.


Thermal spraying — Determination of tensile adhesive strength

Projection thermique — Mesure de l'adhérence par essais de traction

ISO 14916:2017 specifies the procedure to determine the tensile adhesive strength of thermally sprayed coatings under tension in the direction normal to the surface of the coating by applying a tensile test. By using this procedure, comparability of the test results is ensured.

The test is intended to determine the tensile adhesive strength between the thermally sprayed coating and the substrate material or between the bond and top coat and/or of the cohesive strength of the related coat of the coating system. In some cases, thermally sprayed coatings might have more than two layers. The method specified in this document applies also to determine the tensile adhesive strength between the interfaces of different layers in a coating system which consists of more than two layers.

This test is sufficient to compare coatings manufactured using same or similar feedstock materials and thermal spray processes with each other. The tensile adhesive strength test is not intended to provide absolute values for evaluation of the durability of coatings under operational use.

The test is used to assess the influence of substrate preparation, the spraying conditions and the process parameter on the tensile adhesive strength of thermally sprayed coatings. It can also be employed in order to monitor the consistency of the manufacturing and spraying processes.

NOTE          This tensile test can also be applied to very thin coatings. Moreover, the infiltration of bonding agent into the thermally sprayed coatings containing a required level of porosity can be minimized using an appropriate bonding agent (foil rather than liquid). For further instructions, please refer to 6.5.3. This tensile test is inappropriate for determining the adhesive strength of fused spray coatings deposited using self-fluxing alloys due to their inherent high adhesion strength values.

Biological evaluation of medical devices — Part 6: Tests for local effects after implantation

Évaluation biologique des dispositifs médicaux — Partie 6: Essais concernant les effets locaux après implantation

ISO 10993-6:2016 specifies test methods for the assessment of the local effects after implantation of biomaterials intended for use in medical devices.

ISO 10993-6:2016 applies to materials that are

-      solid and non-absorbable,

-      non-solid, such as porous materials, liquids, gels, pastes, and particulates, and

-      degradable and/or absorbable, which may be solid or non-solid.

The test sample is implanted into a site and animal species appropriate for the evaluation of the biological safety of the material. These implantation tests are not intended to evaluate or determine the performance of the test sample in terms of mechanical or functional loading. This part of ISO 10993 can also be applied to medical devices that are intended to be used topically in clinical indications where the surface or lining might have been breached, in order to evaluate local tissue responses.

The local effects are evaluated by a comparison of the tissue response caused by a test sample to that caused by control materials used in medical devices whose clinical acceptability and biocompatibility characteristics have been established. The objective of the test methods is to characterize the history and evolution of the tissue response after implantation of a medical device/biomaterial including final integration or absorption/degradation of the material. In particular for degradable/absorbable materials, the degradation characteristics of the material and the resulting tissue response should be determined.

ISO 10993-6:2016 does not deal with systemic toxicity, carcinogenicity, teratogenicity or mutagenicity. However, the long-term implantation studies intended for evaluation of local biological effects might provide insight into some of these properties. Systemic toxicity studies conducted by implantation might satisfy the requirements of this part of ISO 10993. When conducting combined studies for evaluating local effects and systemic effects, the requirements of both standards is to be fulfilled.

Information technology — Programming languages, their environments and system software interfaces — Code signing for source code

Technologies de l'information — Langages de programmation, leur environnement et interfaces des logiciels de systèmes — Signature numérique pour le code source

This International Standard specifies a language-neutral and environment-neutral description to define the methodology needed to support the signing of software source code, to enable it to be uniquely identified, and to enable roll-back to signed previous versions. It is intended to be used by originators of software source code and the recipients of their signed source code. This International Standard is designed for transfers of source code among disparate entities.

The following areas are outside the scope of this International Standard:

-      Determination of the trust level of a certification authority;

-      Format used to track revisions of source code files;

-      Digital signing of object or binary code;

-      System configuration and resource availability;

-      Metadata

-      This is partially addressed by ISO/IEC 19770‑2;

-      Transmission and representation issues

-      Though this could be an issue in implementation, there are techniques such as Portable Document Format (PDF)[1] that can be used to mitigate these issues. This applies in particular to the transmission of digital signatures.

Financial services — Secure cryptographic devices (retail) — Part 1: Concepts, requirements and evaluation methods

Services financiers — Dispositifs cryptographiques de sécurité (services aux particuliers) — Partie 1: Concepts, exigences et méthodes d'évaluation

ISO 13491-1:2016 specifies the security characteristics for secure cryptographic devices (SCDs) based on the cryptographic processes defined in ISO 9564, ISO 16609, and ISO 11568.

ISO 13491-1:2016 has two primary purposes:

-      to state the security characteristics concerning both the operational characteristics of SCDs and the management of such devices throughout all stages of their life cycle;

?   to provide guidance for methodologies to verify compliance with those requirements. This information is contained in Annex A.

ISO 13491-2 specifies checklists to be used to evaluate secure cryptographic devices (SCDs) incorporating cryptographic processes as specified in ISO 9564-1, ISO 9564-2, ISO 16609, ISO 11568-1, ISO 11568-2, ISO 11568-3, ISO 11568-4, ISO 11568-5, and ISO 11568-6 in the financial services environment.

Annex A provides an informative illustration of the concepts of security levels described in this part of ISO 13491 as being applicable to SCDs.

ISO 13491-1:2016 does not address issues arising from the denial of service of an SCD.

Specific requirements for the security characteristics and management of specific types of SCD functionality used in the retail financial services environment are contained in ISO 13491‑2.


Web Services for Management (WS-Management) Specification

Spécification des services Web pour le management (WS-Management)

ISO/IEC 17963:2013 describes a Web services protocol based on SOAP for use in management‑specific domains. These domains include the management of entities such as PCs, servers, devices, Web services and other applications manageable entities. Services can expose only a WS-Management interface or compose the WS-Management service interface with some of the many other Web service specifications.

A crucial application for these services is in the area of systems management. To promote interoperability between management applications and managed resources, ISO/IEC PAS 17963:2012 identifies a core set of Web service specifications and usage requirements that expose a common set of operations central to all systems management. This includes the ability to do the following:

a) get, put (update), create, and delete individual resource instances, such as settings and dynamic values;

b) enumerate the contents of containers and collections, such as large tables and logs;

c) subscribe to events emitted by managed resources;

d) execute specific management methods with strongly typed input and output parameters.

In each of these areas of scope, ISO/IEC 17963:2013 defines minimal implementation requirements for conformant Web service implementations. An implementation is free to extend beyond this set of operations, and to choose not to support one or more of the preceding areas of functionality if that functionality is not appropriate to the target device or system.

ISO/IEC 17963:2013 intends to meet the following requirements:

a) constrain Web services protocols and formats so that Web services can be implemented with a small footprint in both hardware and software management services;

b) define minimum requirements for compliance without constraining richer implementations;

c) ensure backward compatibility and interoperability with WS-Management version 1.0;

d) ensure composability with other Web services specifications.

The purpose of ISO 1043-3:2016 is to prevent the occurrence of more than one abbreviated term for a given plasticizer. The symbols are primarily intended to be convenient shorthand for forming abbreviated terms for chemical names in publications and other written matter.


Petroleum and natural gas industries — Fixed steel offshore structures — Amendment 1

Industries du pétrole et du gaz naturel — Structures en mer fixes en acier  — Amendement 1


Petroleum and natural gas industries — Specific requirements for offshore structures — Part 2: Seismic design procedures and criteria

Industries du pétrole et du gaz naturel — Exigences spécifiques relatives aux structures en mer — Partie 2: Procédures de conception et critères sismiques

ISO 19901-2:2017 contains requirements for defining the seismic design procedures and criteria for offshore structures; guidance on the requirements is included in Annex A. The requirements focus on fixed steel offshore structures and fixed concrete offshore structures. The effects of seismic events on floating structures and partially buoyant structures are briefly discussed. The site-specific assessment of jack-ups in elevated condition is only covered in ISO 19901-2:2017 to the extent that the requirements are applicable.

Only earthquake-induced ground motions are addressed in detail. Other geologically induced hazards such as liquefaction, slope instability, faults, tsunamis, mud volcanoes and shock waves are mentioned and briefly discussed.

The requirements are intended to reduce risks to persons, the environment, and assets to the lowest levels that are reasonably practicable. This intent is achieved by using:

a)   seismic design procedures which are dependent on the exposure level of the offshore structure and the expected intensity of seismic events;

b)   a two-level seismic design check in which the structure is designed to the ultimate limit state (ULS) for strength and stiffness and then checked to abnormal environmental events or the abnormal limit state (ALS) to ensure that it meets reserve strength and energy dissipation requirements.

Procedures and requirements for a site-specific probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) are addressed for offshore structures in high seismic areas and/or with high exposure levels. However, a thorough explanation of PSHA procedures is not included.

Where a simplified design approach is allowed, worldwide offshore maps, which are included in Annex B, show the intensity of ground shaking corresponding to a return period of 1 000 years. In such cases, these maps may be used with corresponding scale factors to determine appropriate seismic actions for the design of a structure.

For design of fixed steel offshore structures, further specific requirements and recommended values of design parameters (e.g. partial action and resistance factors) are included in ISO 19902, while those for fixed concrete offshore structures are contained in ISO 19903. Seismic requirements for floating structures are contained in ISO 19904, for site-specific assessment of jack-ups and other MOUs in ISO 19905 (all parts), for arctic structures in ISO 19906 and for topsides structures in ISO 19901‑3.


Petroleum and natural gas industries  — Site-specific assessment of mobile offshore units — Part 3: Floating unit

Industries du pétrole et du gaz naturel — Évaluation spécifique au site d'unités mobiles en mer — Partie 3: Unité flottante

ISO 19905-3 specifies requirements and gives guidance for the site-specific assessment of mobile floating units for use in the petroleum and natural gas industries. It addresses the installed phase, at a specific site, of manned non-evacuated, manned evacuated and unmanned mobile floating units.

ISO 19905-3 addresses mobile floating units that are monohull (e.g. ship-shaped vessels or barges); column-stabilized, commonly referred to as semi-submersibles; or other hull forms (e.g. cylindrical/conical shaped). It is not applicable to tension leg platforms. Stationkeeping can be provided by a mooring system, a thruster assisted mooring system, or dynamic positioning. The function of the unit can be broad, including drilling, floatel, tender assist, etc. In situations where hydrocarbons are being produced, there can be additional requirements.

The requirements of ISO 19905-3 apply to the hull and stationkeeping system for all types of mobile units. The activity specific operating guideline document requirements can be modified to be appropriate to the situation being assessed.

ISO 19905-3 does not address all site considerations, and certain specific locations can require additional assessment.

ISO 19905-3 is applicable only to mobile floating units that are structurally sound and adequately maintained, which is normally demonstrated through holding a valid RCS classification certificate.

ISO 19905-3 does not address design, transportation to and from site, or installation and removal from site.

ISO 19905-3 sets out the requirements for site-specific assessments, but generally relies on other documents to supply the details of how the assessments are to be undertaken. In general:

-      ISO 19901‑7 is referenced for the assessment of the stationkeeping system;

-      ISO 19904‑1 is referenced to determine the metocean actions on the unit;

-      ISO 19906 is referenced for arctic and cold regions;

-      the hull structure and airgap are assessed by use of a comparison between the site-specific metocean conditions and its design conditions, as set out in the RCS approved operations manual;

-      ISO 13624‑1 and ISO/TR 13624‑2[1] are referenced for the assessment of the marine drilling riser of mobile floating drilling units. Equivalent alternative methodologies can be used;

-      IMCA M 220[5] is referenced for developing an activity specific operating guidelines. Agreed alternative methodologies can be used.

NOTE 1    The scope of ISO 19904‑1 specifically states that its requirements do not apply to mobile units, but the methodologies given for assessing metocean actions can be used.

NOTE 2    RCS rules and the IMO MODU code[4] provide guidance for design and general operation of mobile floating units.


Petroleum and natural gas industries — Specific requirements for offshore structures — Part 4: Geotechnical and foundation design considerations

Industries du pétrole et du gaz naturel — Exigences spécifiques relatives aux structures en mer — Partie 4: Bases conceptuelles des fondations

ISO 19901-4:2016 contains provisions for those aspects of geoscience and foundation engineering that are applicable to a broad range of offshore structures, rather than to a particular structure type. Such aspects are:

-      site and soil characterization;

-      identification of hazards;

-      design and installation of shallow foundations supported by the seabed;

-      design and installation of pile foundations;

-      soil-structure interaction for auxiliary structures, e.g. subsea production systems, risers and flowlines (guidance given in A.10);

-      design of anchors for the stationkeeping systems of floating structures (guidance given in A.11).

Particular requirements for marine soil investigations are detailed in ISO 19901‑8.

Aspects of soil mechanics and foundation engineering that apply equally to offshore and onshore structures are not addressed. The user of this part of ISO 19901 is expected to be familiar with such aspects.

ISO 19901‑4 outlines methods developed primarily for the design of shallow foundations with an embedded length (L) to diameter (D) ratio L/D < 1 (Clause 7) and relatively long and flexible pile foundations with L/D > 10 (Clause 8). This part of ISO 19901 does not apply to intermediate foundations with 1 < L/D < 10. Such intermediate foundations, often known as 'caisson foundations', comprise either shallow foundations with skirts penetrating deeper into the seabed than the width of the foundation, or shorter, more rigid and larger diameter piles than those traditionally used for founding offshore structures. The design of such foundations can require specific analysis methods; it is important that any extrapolation from the design methods described in this part of ISO 19901 to intermediate foundations be treated with care and assessed by a geotechnical specialist.


Petroleum and natural gas industries — Specific requirements for offshore structures — Part 8: Marine soil investigations

Industries du pétrole et du gaz naturel — Exigences spécifiques relatives aux structures en mer — Partie 8: Investigations des sols en mer

ISO 19901-8:2014 specifies requirements, and provides recommendations and guidelines for marine soil investigations regarding:

a)    objectives, planning and execution of marine soil investigations;

b)    deployment of investigation equipment;

c)    drilling and logging;

d)    in situ testing;

e)    sampling;

f)     laboratory testing; and

g)    reporting.

Rock materials are only covered by ISO 19901-8:2014 to the extent that ordinary marine soil investigation tools can be used, e.g. for chalk, calcareous soils, cemented soils or similar soft rock.

ISO 19901-8:2014 is intended for clients, soil investigation contractors, designers, installation contractors, geotechnical laboratories and public and regulatory authorities concerned with marine soil investigations for any type of offshore and nearshore structures, or geohazard assessment studies, for petroleum and natural gas industries.
