Introduction to this Guideline
Water resources management infrastructures comprise one of the largest pools of capital
stock owned and operated by municipal, provincial, and federal governments in
Canada. In turn, every day Canadians rely on this infrastructure to help sustain their
health and safety, protect their livelihoods, safeguard property, as well as to protect
natural systems such…

Wind turbines — Part 3: Design requirements for offshore wind turbines
1 Scope
This part of IEC 61400 specifies additional requirements for assessment of the external
conditions at an offshore wind turbine site and it specifies essential design requirements to
ensure the engineering integrity of offshore wind turbines. Its purpose is to provide an
appropriate level of protection against damage from all hazards during the planned lifetime.
This standard focuses on…
Radio interference characteristics of overhead power lines and high-voltage equipment - Part 2: Meth...
CISPR 18-2:2010(E), which is a technical report, applies to radio noise from overhead power lines and high-voltage equipment which may cause interference to radio reception. The frequency range covered is 0,15 MHz to 300 MHz. A general procedure for establishing the limits of the radio noise field from the power lines and equipment is recommended, together with typical values as examples, and…
TECHNICAL GUIDE - Infrastructure in permafrost: A guideline for climate change adaptation
1 INTRODUCTION TO THE GUIDELINE
1.1 Need for this Guideline
Engineering projects in the North often encounter permafrost in their foundation
environment. The ability of frozen ground to support these structures depends mostly on
local climatic conditions, ground temperatures, soil/rock material properties, and ground
ice conditions.
Since significant climate warming is anticipated in…
