This document provides a transparent framework for reporting on the choices related to the procedure to determine PEFs and CO2 Emission coefficients for energy delivered to and/or exported by the buildings as described in EN ISO 52000-1:2017. Exported PEFs and CO2 Emission coefficients can be different from those chosen for delivered energy. This document can be considered as a supporting/complementing standard to EN ISO 52000-1, as the latter requires values for the PEFs and GHG Emissions factors to complete the EPB calculation. Table 1 shows the relative position of this document within the set of EPB standards in the context of the modular structure as set out in EN ISO 52000-1.

This document specifies a laboratory measurement method to determine noise radiated from a floor covering on a standard concrete floor when excited by a standard tapping machine.

This European Standard specifies sustainability requirements together with assessment methods and evaluation schemes for ceramic sanitary appliances, i.e. WC pans and WC suites in accordance with EN 997, urinals in accordance with EN 13407, wash basins in accordance with EN 14688, communal washing troughs in accordance with EN 14296 and bidets in accordance with EN 14528. NOTE This European Standard may be applicable to other ceramic sanitary appliances.

This document specifies the requirements for solid wall pipes with smooth internal and external surfaces, extruded from the same formulation throughout the wall, fittings and the system of unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) piping systems intended for soil and waste discharge applications (low and high temperature): - inside buildings (application area code "B"); - for both inside buildings and buried in ground within the building structure (application area code "BD"). NOTE 1 The intended use is reflected in the marking of products by "B" or "BD". NOTE 2 Multilayer pipes with different formulations throughout the wall and foamed core pipes are covered by EN 1453-1 [1]. NOTE 3 For use buried in ground within the building structure are intended only those components (marked with "BD") with nominal outside diameters equal to or greater than 75 mm. NOTE 4 EN 476 [2] specifies the general requirements for components used in discharge pipes, drains and sewers for gravity systems. Pipes and fittings conforming to this standard fully meet these requirements. This document is also applicable to PVC-U pipes, fittings and the system intended for the following purposes: - ventilating part of the pipework in association with discharge applications; - rainwater pipework within the building structure. This document also specifies the test parameters for the test method that are referred to. This document covers a range of nominal sizes, a range of pipes and fittings series and gives recommendations concerning colours. NOTE 5 It is the responsibility of the purchaser or specifier to make the appropriate selections from these aspects, taking into account their particular requirements and any relevant national regulations and installation practices or codes. For external above ground application additional requirements depending on the climate should be agreed between the manufacturer and the user. NOTE 6 Pipes, fittings and other components conforming to any of the plastics product standards listed in Annex B can be used with pipes and fittings conforming to this document, provided they conform to the requirements for joint dimensions given in Clause 6 and to the requirements of Table 25.

This document identifies material independent performance characteristics, except resistance to fire and smoke control characteristics, that are applicable to windows (including roof windows, roof windows with external fire resistance and door height windows), external pedestrian doorsets (including unframed glass doorsets, escape route doorsets and their assemblies). Fire resisting and/or smoke control characteristics for pedestrian doorsets and openable windows are covered by EN 16034. This document applies to - fixed windows or fixed lights, manually or power operated windows, French windows and screens for installation in vertical wall apertures and roof windows for installation in inclined roofs, complete with: - related hardware, if any; - weather stripping, if any; - glazed apertures when intended to have glazed apertures; - with or without incorporated shutters and/or shutter boxes and/or blinds; and manually or power operated windows, roof windows, French windows and screens that are: - fully or partially glazed including any non-transparent infill; - fixed or partly fixed or openable with one or more casements/sashes (e.g. hinged, projecting, pivoted, sliding); - manually operated external pedestrian doorsets or power operated external pedestrian hinged doorsets with flush or panelled leaves in construction works, complete with: - integral fanlights, if any; - adjacent parts that are contained within a single frame for inclusion in a single aperture, if any. The windows covered by this document are not assessed regarding their ability to release (to open). The products covered by this document are not assessed for structural applications. This document does not apply to: - rooflights according to EN 1873 and EN 14963; - curtain walling according to EN 13830; - industrial, commercial and garage doors and gates according to EN 13241; - internal pedestrian doorsets according to EN 14351-2; - revolving doorsets; - power operated pedestrian doorsets according to EN 16361; - windows intended to be part of internal partition.

This document describes the test methods for all building limes covered by EN 459-1. This document specifies in Table 2 the methods used for the chemical analyses and the determination of physical properties of building limes. This document describes primary methods of chemical analyses. The reference methods and, in certain cases, alternative methods in this document can be considered to be equivalent.

This document specifies the shape, dimensions and tolerances of cast concrete test specimens in the form of cubes, cylinders and prisms, and of the moulds required to produce them. NOTE The tolerances specified in this document are based on the needs of strength testing, but they can be applicable to tests for other properties.

This document specifies the method for the determination of the secant modulus of elasticity in compression of hardened concrete on test specimens which can be cast or taken from a structure. The test method allows the determination of two secant moduli of elasticity: the initial modulus, EC,0 measured at first loading and the stabilized modulus, EC,S measured after three loading cycles. Two different test methods are given. The first (Method A) is for determination of both initial and stabilized moduli, the second (Method B) is for determination of stabilized modulus only.

This document specifies a method for the determination of the velocity of propagation of pulses of ultrasonic longitudinal waves or ultrasonic transverse waves in hardened concrete, which is used for a number of applications.

This document specifies a method for determining the rebound number of an area of hardened concrete using a spring-driven hammer. NOTE 1 The rebound number determined by this method can be used to assess the uniformity of concrete in situ, to delineate zones or areas of poor quality or deteriorated concrete in structures. NOTE 2 The test method is not intended as an alternative for the compressive strength determination of concrete (EN 12390-3), but with suitable correlation, it can provide an estimate of in situ compressive strength. For the assessment of in-situ compressive strength, see EN 13791. NOTE 3 The hammer can be used for comparative testing, referenced against a concrete with known strength or against a concrete which has been shown that it has come from a defined volume of concrete with a population verified as conforming to a particular strength class.
