Building, building structures and materials
Standards for structural bearings used for bridges, industrial buildings etc.. These standards describes different types of bearings, give specifications of materials, provisions for design, production and installing, acception and test criteria;
Standards for earthworks performance including classification of earth and rock soils, test methods and improving of structural soils;
Standards for execution of special geotechnical works as piles, nailing pilots, diaphragm walls, sheet pilings, injection and earth anchors, micro pilots, reinforced embankments etc.

Earthworks
Earthworks
Terminology for earthworks (terms and definition); Test methods (characterisation for earthworks of natural soils and rocks) in laboratory and in situ- including improved soils treated with binders or lime or other "additives" used in earthworks. Classification systems of soils and rocks suitable for use in embankment construction, possibly leading to a unified classification system or principles/rules for classifying soils and rocks for earthworks purposes; Characterisation of extraction ability ("excavatability"); Design of earthworks; Quality control of works and monitoring.
