New and Revised Codes and Standards

(from BSI Updates February & March 2007)

BS EN PUBLICATIONS The following are British Standard implementations of the English language versions of European Standards (ENs). BSI has an obligation to publish all ENs and to withdraw any conicting British Standards or parts of British Standard. This has led to a series of standards, BS ENs using the EN number. Note: The date referenced in the identier is the date of the European standard. BS EN 1337:Structural bearings BS EN 1337-2:2004 Sliding elements Supersedes BS EN 1337-2:2001 which is withdrawn, partially
