AASHTO T 353-14 : Standard Method of Test for Particle Size Analysis of Hydraulic Cement and Related Materials by Light Scattering
This test method covers the determination of the particle size distribution (PSD) of hydraulic cement and related compounds by means of the laser diffraction technique, reported as volume percent of particulate materials. This test method applies to analysis with both non-aqueous dispersions and gaseous dispersions. this test method is applicable to the measurement of particulate materials in the size range of 0.4 to 2000 µm.

AASHTO T 351-14 : Standard Method of Test for Visual Stability Index (VSI) of Self-Consolidating Concrete (SCC)
This test method covers determination of the visual stability index of self-consolidating concrete (SCC), both in the laboratory and in the field. SCC is defined as a highly workable concrete that can flow through densley reinforced or complex structural elements under its own weight without vibration and adequately fill voids without experiencing segregation or excessive bleeding.

Geothermal Heating and Cooling: Design of Ground-Source Heat Pump Systems
Best Practices for Designing Geothermal Systems
Geothermal Heating and Cooling is a complete revision of Ground-Source Heat Pumps: Design of Geothermal Systems for Commercial and Institutional Buildings, which is recognized as the primary reference for nonresidential ground-source heat pump (GSHP) installations. This new work takes advantage of the many lessons learned since the time of the original publication, when GSHPs were primarily residential applications. Many improvements have evolved, and performance data, both positive and negative, is now available to guide the development of best practices. This essential guide for HVAC design engineers, design-build contractors, GSHP subcontractors, and energy/construction managers also provides building owners and architects with insights into characteristics of quality engineering firms and the information that should be provided by design firms competing for GSHP projects.
This revision draws on new ASHRAE and industry research in critical areas, as well as measured data from long-term installations and optimized installation practices used by high-production GSHP contractors. Nearly all chapters and appendices were completely rewritten, and they include coverage of closed-loop ground (ground-coupled), groundwater, and surface-water systems plus GSHP equipment and piping. Additional information on site characterization has been added, including a new hydrogeological chapter. Another new chapter contains results of recent field studies, energy and demand characteristics, and updated information to optimize GSHP system cost. While other publications deal primarily with ground-coupled heat pumps, this text includes detailed coverage of groundwater, surface-water, and GSHP costs.
Tables, graphs, and equations are provided in both Inch-Pound (I-P) and International System (SI) units. As a bonus, supplemental Microsoft® Excel® macro-enabled spreadsheets for a variety of GSHP calculations accompany the text.
Keywords: ground-source heat pumps, geothermal heat pumps, ground-coupled heat pumps, groundwater heat pumps, surface-water heat pumps, water-source heat pumps, pond-loop heat pumps, lake-water heat pumps

API Std 527 : Seat Tightness of Pressure Relief Valves, Fourth Edition
This standard describes methods of determining the seat tightness of metal- and soft-seated pressure relief valves, including those of conventional, bellows, and pilot-operated designs.
The maximum acceptable leakage rates are defined for pressure relief valves with set pressures from 103 kPa gauge (15 psig) to 41,379 kPa gauge (6000 psig). If greater seat tightness is required, the purchaser shall specify it in the purchase order.
The test medium for determining the seat tightness—air, steam, or water—shall be the same as that used for determining the set pressure of the valve.
For dual-service valves, the test medium—air, steam, or water—shall be the same as the primary relieving medium.
To ensure safety, the procedures outlined in this standard shall be performed by persons experienced in the use and functions of pressure relief valves.

This standard sets forth procedures to measure the ability of elastomeric materials to withstand static exposure to sour liquid environments (e.g., hydrocarbon, water, or mixtures of each with hydrogen sulfide [H2S]) at elevated pressure and temperature, and is not designed to be a functional test. It is designed for testing O-rings or specimens of elastomeric vulcanizates cut from standard sheets in accordance with ASTM D3182.2 This standard is not applicable to the testing of cellular rubber or porous compositions.
