This standard forms part 5 of the series ISO 18674, as described in ISO 18674-1: Part 1. General rules the methods and gives rules for measurement of total stresses in geotechnical engineering or more general in foundation engineering. Stresses in soil or rock are needed to judge the loading of engineered construction in the ground.

This European Standard specifies product characteristics, and test/assessment methods and compliance criteria of the test results for smoke barriers which comprise the barrier itself, with or without associated activation and drive devices. It does not cover barriers made of part of the building’s structure. Smoke barriers are intended to be installed in smoke control systems in construction works.

This European Standard defines limits for physical contacts between machines and humans that are caused by movement of the machine as part of its intended use or foreseeable misuse. It covers all types of machines that are designed to function where people can be present without physical barriers and as a result can contact those people. It also covers hazardous mechanical contacts of humans with surroundings that are caused by human fall originated by the movement of a machine. It includes machines that contact people as part of their function and machines that do not require human contact. It encompasses interactions that are intentional or unintentional. Machines include but are not limited to, fixed robots, mobile robots, collaborative robots, vehicles, machine tools, moving equipment, doors and powered doors, flying robots, exoskeletons, care and domestic servant robots, hand tools. Requirements that are mandated by local, national or international regulations take precedence over this standard. Medical devices are not covered by this European Standard.

This European Standard describes the conditioning procedures for test specimens which will be tested according to the European standards for reaction to fire. The rules for the selection of substrates for construction products when carrying out reaction to fire tests are also detailed in this European Standard. This European Standard does not contain requirements for - the pre-drying of test specimens for the non-combustibility test according EN ISO 1182; - methods of cleaning (e.g. washing) and other methods for the assessment of durability aspects, which are dealt with in the relevant product standards.

This document specifies requirements for the construction and performance of residential sprinklers as well as test methods for their type approval, which are operated by a change of state of an element or bursting of a glass bulb under the influence of heat, for use only in automatic sprinkler systems for domestic and residential applications as defined in EN 16925:− . This standard does not cover representative fire and other tests for special sprinklers that are intended to provide for specific fire hazards, nor does it cover fire and other tests for sprinklers for commercial and industrial sprinkler systems as in EN 12845. Those test requirements are covered by EN 12259-1. NOTE 1 All pressure data in this European Standard are given as gauge pressures in bar. NOTE 2 Sprinklers according to EN12259-1 can also be used in residential and domestic applications if the system is designed according to EN 12845.

This part of EN 45545 specifies the reaction to fire performance requirements for materials and products used on railway vehicles as defined in EN 45545-1. The operation and design categories defined in EN 45545-1 are used to establish hazard levels that are used as the basis of a classification system. For each hazard level, this part specifies the test methods, test conditions and reaction to fire performance requirements. It is not within the scope of this European Standard to describe measures that ensure the preservation of the vehicles in the event of a fire.

This European Standard specifies a fire test method and an assessment procedure for determining the contribution of fire protection systems to the fire resistance performance of circular and rectangular steel bars used as tension members. This Standard applies to fire protection materials that have already been tested and assessed in accordance with EN 13381 4 or EN 13381-8 unless all the testing is carried out in accordance with Annex B using a minimum length of 2 000 mm. If testing to EN 13381 4 or EN 13381-8 has not been carried out then loaded testing shall be carried out in accordance with Annex B. For other section shapes such as angles, channels and flats, reference should be made to EN 13381 4 and EN 13381 8. This standard does not include steel or any other cold formed bar used as reinforcement in concrete construction. For other solid bar geometries such as oval or triangular cross section, these should be subject to a separate test package in accordance with the principles of Clause 5 of this Standard. Fire protection performance is determined by testing of unloaded tension members, although additional loaded test evidence may be required for certain product types subject to certain conditions specified in the Standard. The method is applicable to all fire protection systems used for the protection of solid bar up to a maximum diameter of 130 mm and includes sprayed fire protection, reactive coatings, cladding protection systems and multi-layer or composite fire protection materials. In the case of rectangular bar, the maximum side length should be limited to 130mm with a maximum aspect ratio of 2:1 against the shorter side length. For dimensions greater than 130mm it is appropriate to use rectangular or circular hollow sections tested and assessed in accordance with EN 13381 4 and EN 13381 8 provided they have been tested in the same orientation. The evaluation is designed to cover a range of thicknesses of the applied fire protection material, a range of steel bar dimensions, a range of specified temperatures and a range of valid fire protection periods. The test method is applicable to fire protection systems which are intimately in contact with the bar, or which include an airspace between the bar and the protection system as given in EN 13381-4. This standard also provides the assessment procedure, which prescribes the analysis of the test data and gives guidance on the procedures to undertake interpolation. This Standard caters for testing in both vertical and horizontal orientations. Results from horizontally orientated bar may be applied to any orientation, whilst results from vertically orientated bar should only be used for horizontal bars when the data has been corrected in accordance with Annex C. This standard gives the fire test procedures, carried out to provide data on the thermal characteristics of the fire protection system, when exposed to the standard temperature/time curve specified in Clause 5.1.1 of EN 1363 1. The assessment procedure is used to establish: a) on the basis of data derived from testing steel bar, any practical constraints on the use of the fire protection system under fire test conditions (the physical performance); b) on the basis of the temperature data derived from testing steel bar the thermal properties of the fire protection system (the thermal performance). The limits of applicability of the results of the assessment arising from the fire test are defined together with application of the results to different steel types and sizes over the range of thicknesses of the applied fire protection system tested.

This European Standard specifies general requirements and verifications for methods of identification of waste containers and/or determination of the quantity of waste including: ¾ safety requirements; ¾ interface requirements and performances; ¾ data to be treated and their integrity. This European Standard is applicable to systems for handling containers conforming to EN 840. NOTE Although this European Standard does not cover systems for handling containers not conforming to EN 840, it is recommended to apply the requirements of this document to these systems as far as possible. This European Standard is applicable to systems both for billing and not for billing.

This European Standard specifies characteristics and related requirements, assessment methods, the marking and assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) procedures for prefabricated secondary treatment units for populations up to 50 inhabitants. Prefabricated secondary treatment units in accordance with this European Standard are: - used for the treatment of effluent from product in accordance with EN 12566 1 or EN 12566 4; NOTE Equivalent septic effluent may come from existing septic tanks. - made of concrete, steel, PVC-U, Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), Glass Reinforced Polyester (GRP-UP), Polydicyclopentadiene (PDCPD), PVC and/or EPDM; - used on the top of the ground (outside the building) or buried in the ground; - with or without extension shaft; - made of components that are packaged or site-assembled and placed on the market as a kit by one manufacturer. This European Standard does not cover prefabricated secondary treatment units: - where vehicle loads apply to it; - with direct infiltration into the ground (non-watertight); - made of retrofit kits (see definition in 3.1.7). The assessment methods specified in this European Standard establish the performance of the prefabricated secondary treatment unit, needed to verify its suitability for the condition in which it is normally installed.
