Most valves use some form of packing to prevent leakage from the space between the stem and the bonnet. Packing is commonly a fibrous material (such as flax) or another compound (such as teflon) that forms a seal between the internal parts of a valve and the outside where the stem extends through the body. Valve packing must be properly compressed to prevent fluid loss and damage to the valve's stem. If a valve's packing is too loose, the valve will leak, which is a safety hazard. If the packing is too tight, it will impair the movement and possibly damage the stem....

The European Championship stadium helps the Weidmoos An important step came in 2000, when nature protection compensation measures were undertaken as a result of the construction of a new stadium in Salzburg/ Klessheim. This involved the purchase of about 80 of the 136 hectare bird reserve for nature protection purposes. In this way, the future use of the site was bound by property law. In 2002, Salzburg’s Nature Protection Department contracted REVITAL, a civil engineering consultancy firm, to develop a Natura 2000 management plan.

This is an arrangement more commonly adopted for complex building construc- tions rather than for civil engineering works. Under it the promoter appoints one contractor to manage all the construction inputs by letting contracts him- self. These ‘works contracts’ are effectively sub-contracts to the management contractor. Many may be labour-only contracts, while others are for ‘supply and erect’. The promoter may retain rights to approve or disapprove appointment of a works contractor.

In January 1976, the Transportation Energy Conservation (TEC) Division of the Energy Research and Development Administration contracted with Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to prepare a Transportation Energy Conservation Data Book to be used by TEC staff in their evaluation of current and proposed conservation strategies. The major purposes of the Data Book were to draw together, under one cover, transportation data from diverse sources, to resolve data conflicts and inconsistencies, and to produce a comprehensive document.
