DANSK DS/EN ISO 16000-7 PDF

This part of EN ISO 16000 specifies procedures to be used in planning of air measurements to determine the concentrations of asbestos in indoor atmospheres. Careful planning of the measurement strategy is important, because the results may become the basis of recommendations for major building renovations, or the return of a building to normal occupancy status after removal of asbestos-containing materials.
This part of EN ISO 16000 uses the following definition for indoor environments:
- dwelling having living rooms, bedrooms, do-it-yourself (DIY) rooms, recreation rooms, cellars, kitchens and bathrooms;
- workrooms or workplaces in buildings which are not subject to health and safety inspections in regard to air pollutants (for example, offices, sales premises and warehouses);
- public and commercial buildings (for example, hospitals, nursing homes, schools, kindergartens, sports halls, libraries, restaurants and bars, hotels, theatres, cinemas, post offices, banks, airports, large stores and other functions rooms);
- cabins of vehicles, ships and aircraft.
The strategies in this standard may also be applicable to the measurement of other airborne mineral fibres.
