$
0
0

Preface

This is the second edition of ANSI Z21.98/CSA 4.10, Non-metallic dip tubes for use in water heaters. It supersedes the previous edition published in 2012.

Scope

1.1 This Standard applies to newly produced non-metallic dip tubes intended for use in water heaters. 1.2 Compliance of a dip tube with this Standard does not imply that such dip tube is acceptable for use in water heaters without supplemental tests with the dip tube installed in the particular water heater design. 1.3 This standard contains SI (Metric) corresponding to the yard/pound quantities, the purpose being to allow the standard to be used in SI (Metric) units. (American National Standard for Metric Practice, IEEE/ASTM SI 10, or ISO 80000-1:2009, Quantities and units - Part 1: General, is used as a guide in making metric conversion from yard/pound quantities.) If a value for a measurement and a corresponding value in other units are stated, the first stated value is to be regarded as the requirement. The given corresponding value may be approximate. If a value for a measurement and a corresponding value in other units are both specified as a quoted marking requirement, the first stated unit, or both, are to be provided. 1.4 In this Standard, "shall" is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user shall satisfy in order to comply with the standard; "should" is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and "may" is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard. Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material. Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements. Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.

CSA C654-14 : Fluorescent Lamp Ballast Efficacy Measurements

$

0

Preface

This is the third edition of CSA C654, Fluorescent lamp ballast efficacy measurements. It supersedes the previous editions published in 2010 and 1991. This Standard is based on the ANSI/NEMA performance Standards for fluorescent lamps (C78 Series) and ballasts (C82 Series), with the purpose of specifying ballast efficacy limits and methods of measurement for energy conservation. This edition includes the following changes: a) The units of measurement have been revised from BEF to BLE (Ballast Luminous Efficiency) for T12, T8, and T5 type ballasts. These changes eliminate photometric measurements and prescribe the use of electrical measurements of a lamp-and-ballast system. b) This Standard has been modified and simplified to take into consideration revisions to the referenced NEMA Standards. CSA acknowledges that the development of this Standard was made possible, in part, by the financial support of NRCan, BC Hydro, Manitoba Hydro, Hydro-Quebec, Ontario Ministry of Energy, Sask Power, and Efficiency Nova Scotia.

Scope

1.1 This Standard specifies test procedures and performance requirements for the efficacy of fluorescent lamp ballasts for use in fluorescent luminaires to be installed in industrial, commercial, or residential locations. 1.2 This Standard applies to ballasts intended to operate at a line frequency of 60 Hz. 1.3 This Standard covers ballasts for the types of fluorescent lamp specified in Table 1A. Notes: 1) This Standard does not define the ballast factor (BF) measurement process because the Standard does not use BF to define product classes. See Annex A for a description of BF. 2) This Standard does not specify requirements for safety of ballasts. These requirements are specified in CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 74. 3) It is possible that fluorescent lamp and ballast combinations not covered by this Standard will be included in a future edition of this Standard. 1.4 The following fluorescent lamp ballasts are excluded from this Standard: a) a ballast that, by means of an integrated dimming capability, can reduce the output of the fluorescent lamp by 50% or more; b) low frequency T8 ballasts that are designed, labelled, and marketed for use in EMI-sensitive environments and sold in packages of 10 or fewer; and c) programmed start (PS) ballasts that operate fluorescent lamps commonly referred to as 4 ft MBP T8 lamps and deliver on average less than 140 mA to each lamp. 1.5 In CSA standards, "shall" is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; "should" is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and "may" is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard. Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material. Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements. Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application. 1.6 The values given in SI units are the units of record for the purposes of this Standard. The values given in parentheses are for information and comparison only.

Preface

This is the third edition of CSA S304, Design of masonry structures, using limit states design principles. It supersedes the previous editions published in 2004, under the designation CSA S304.1, and 1994, under the designation CSA S304.1 and the title Masonry Design for Buildings (Limit States Design). Prior to the limit states design edition in 1994, there were two working stress design editions, CSA S304-M84 and the first edition of CSA S304 issued in 1977 (imperial version) and 1978 (metric version). Major changes have been made in this edition. The largest changes involve new and revised seismic provisions, including the creation of a separate clause (Clause 16) dedicated to this subject. Clause 16 includes requirements for new and increased seismic ductility-related force-modification factors and the related design limitations. Other new content includes clauses on anchor bolt design and arch design. The empirical design requirements contained in Annex F have been revised and significant changes to design of dimension cut stone and manufactured stone veneer have been introduced into Annex A. Other major changes include (a) revised reinforcement provisions for shear walls, including minimum spacing for horizontal reinforcement and continuity requirements for vertical reinforcement; (b) new strut stiffness provisions for analysis of buildings containing infill shear walls; (c) revised shear capacity of beams, including the introduction of both a general and a simplified method of calculating shear capacity of beams based on compression field theory; (d) revised requirements for reinforcing at intersections between walls; (e) revised requirements for intermediate longitudinal reinforcement in beams; and (f) revised limit on maximum bar size allowed from 30M down to 25M. Users of this Standard are advised that many other clauses contain minor technical and editorial changes to correct or clarify previous requirements. The masonry industry in Canada has provided funding for the development of this Standard through the CMCA Annual Conference sponsorship.

Scope

1.1 General This Standard specifies requirements for the structural design of unreinforced, reinforced, and prefabricated masonry structures and components in accordance with the limit states design method of the National Building Code of Canada. This Standard also provides requirements for the structural design of prestressed masonry beams, walls, and columns in accordance with the limit states design method of the National Building Code of Canada. In addition, this Standard provides requirements for the empirical design of unreinforced masonry in Annex F. Note: This Standard assumes that review of the structural work designed under this Standard and review of the inspection and test results required by this Standard will be carried out during construction by the designer or another suitably qualified person to determine general conformance with the design. 1.2 Other masonry standards Requirements for mortar and grout for unit masonry, masonry connectors, and masonry construction are specified in CSA A179, CSA A370, and CSA A371, respectively. These Standards include requirements that affect the design and are required for use with this Standard. 1.3 Vehicular bridges This Standard does not apply to the structural design of vehicular bridges. 1.4 Partitions This Standard applies to the structural design of partitions subject to unusual loads such as wind loads, significant internal air pressure differences, or large eccentric loads mounted to the wall. Where it can be shown that the masonry partitions are not subjected to these unusual loads, the masonry partitions may be designed using Annex F. 1.5 Thin veneers secured by mortar adhesion This Standard does not apply to the structural design of thin veneers individually secured by mortar adhesion to a structural support or to the structural design of rough stone veneer. See CSA A371 for prescriptive requirements and limitations. 1.6 Rough stone masonry This Standard does not apply to the structural design of rough (rubble) stone masonry, except as covered in Annex F. See CSA A371 for prescriptive requirements. 1.7 Terminology In this Standard, "shall" is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; "should" is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; "may" is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard. Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material. Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements. Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.
