9、 has been completely restructured and compiled on different principles than previously. Consequently, this part of BS 6100 represents a full revision of the standard.A general introduction to and explanation of the BS 6100 vocabulary is given in BS 6100-0, which provides an alphabetical index of all
10、 the terms in all parts of BS 6100. It is intended that individual parts of BS 6100 are used in conjunction with BS 6100-0 because they do not contain indexes themselves.BS 6100-1 reproduces verbatim ISO 6707-1 and provides a vocabulary of general terms for the building and civil engineering industr
11、y. It is essential that individual parts of BS 6100 are read in conjunction with BS 6100-1. BSI 2008 iiiBS 6100-4:2008BS 6100 does not repeat (or provide alternatives for) terms defined in other standards or in other parts of BS 6100. However, it does refer to where definitions can be found and incl
12、udes a bibliography of all referenced standards.Presentational conventionsDetails of the structure, layout and presentational conventions used in this part of BS 6100 are given in Clause 2.Contractual and legal considerationsThis publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions o
13、f a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from legal obligations.iv BSI 2008 This page deliberately left blankBS 6100-4:2008 BSI 2008 3BS 6100-4:20081 ScopeThis part of BS 6100 defines civil engineering terms that relate
14、 to road, rail and air transport.This standard does not include building types (covered in BS 6100-3), tunnels and bridges (covered in BS 6100-4), building services (covered in BS 6100-8) and water transport, pipelines and ducts (covered in BS 6100-6).2 Vocabulary structureThis part of BS 6100 does
15、not contain its own index. Instead, a comprehensive index of terms is given in BS 6100-0. As a result, it is intended that this part of BS 6100 is used in conjunction with BS 6100-0.The layout of this vocabulary is designed in accordance with ISO 10241 with terms arranged in a classified order and n
16、umbered in accordance with ISO 2145.Each term has an individual number consisting of seven digits in two parts, the first of two digits, the second of five. Each number tells the following information about the term.a) The first two digits represent which part of BS 6100 the term belongs to.b) The t
17、hird digit represents which group of terms it belongs to within the part.c) The fourth digit represents which subgroup of terms it belongs to within the group.d) The fifth to seventh digits determine the location of the term within the subgroup.Bold words within a definition indicate terms that are
18、defined elsewhere in this part of BS 6100, other parts of BS 6100 or other standards. Reference to where the term is defined is given in parenthesis after the bold word.NOTE 1 References to terms defined in BS 6100-1 are shown giving only the part number, e.g. (01); references to terms defined in al
19、l other parts of BS 6100 are shown using their full reference number, e.g. (06 59005).NOTE 2 Where more than one definition source could be referred to, the reference containing the definition of most general applicability is given.Alternative terms are given in medium type below preferred terms whi
20、ch are given in bold type. All alternative terms have the status of being deprecated. Abbreviations are given in bold type below the terms to which they relate.In the vocabulary, terms of more than one word are written in their natural word order, e.g. pedestal elbow, and the word order is not inver
21、ted, e.g. elbow, pedestal. However, inverted forms of a term are included in the index in BS 6100-0.Terms are only given in the singular form, even when the plural form is more common (unless the term is only found in the plural form).BS 6100-4:20084 BSI 20083 Road transport (04 1xxxx)3.1 Works (04
