Commentary to CSA Preliminary Standard S474-M1989, Concrete Structures
1. Scope
The requirements of the Standard are based on engineering design practices and
research that have evolved during the development of concrete structures for
the exploitation of offshore oil and gas resources. The Standard is not
intended to be a detailed design manual and does not provide complete design
procedures. The Standard and the Commentary are intended to supplement, not…
Hot environments — Analytical determination and interpretation of thermal stress using calculation o...
Describes a method of calculating the heat balances as well as the sweat rate that the human body should produce to maintain this balance in equilibrium. The various terms used show the influence of the different physical parameters. It does not predict the physiological response of individual subjects, but only considers standard subjects in good health and fit for the work they perform.
