DESCRIPTION

The Construction Product Regulation - CPR- (EU Regulation 305/2011) defines a Basic Requirements for Construction Works: the sustainable use of resources. Member States and the building sector seem to be are struggling with this Basic Requirement to works. IF Member States set requirements for this on works (buildings) and IF this results in demanding additional information on construction products then EN15978 and EN15804 are the appropriate tools for specifying the methodologies and indicators. The rules (especially the recitals) in the CPR show the way.

CPR – Recitel 1

• The rules of Member States require that construction works be

designed and executed so as not to endanger the safety of persons,

domestic animals or property nor damage the environment.

8

Page 9: CPR - BRCW #7: using cen tc350 standards for implementation

CPR – Recitel 2

• Those rules have a direct influence on the requirements of

construction products. Those requirements are consequently

reflected in national product standards, national technical approvals

and other national technical specifications and provisions related to

construction products. Due to their disparity, those requirements hinder

trade within the Union.

9

Page 10: CPR - BRCW #7: using cen tc350 standards for implementation

CPR – Recitel 3

• This Regulation should not affect the right of Member States to

specify the requirements they deem necessary to ensure the

protection of health, the environment and workers when using

construction products.

10

Page 11: CPR - BRCW #7: using cen tc350 standards for implementation

CPR – Recitel 12

• The methods used by the Member States in their requirements for

construction works, as well as other national rules relating to the

essential characteristics of construction products, should be in

accordance with harmonised technical specifications.

CPR & EPD - Recital 55

The basic requirement for construction works on sustainable use of

natural resources should notably take into account the recyclability of

construction works, their materials and parts after demolition, the

durability of construction works and the use of environmentally compatible

raw and secondary materials in construction works.

12

Page 13: CPR - BRCW #7: using cen tc350 standards for implementation

CPR - Recitel 57

• Wherever possible, uniform European methods should be laid down

for establishing compliance with the basic requirements set out in

Annex I.

BRCW #7 = works

• Building performance on “defined” parameters

• We need:

– Building scenarios

– Product information & scenarios that meet the building scenarios

– Process information & scenarios that meet the building scenarios

• The standards provide the methodology for quantification of the

performance

36

Page 37: CPR - BRCW #7: using cen tc350 standards for implementation

Construction products are intermediate products

37

• The end use product is the building (works)

Product performance is defined in the building

? one layer-two layer? climate indoor-outdoor? type of building? building life time? application? maintenance scenario? end-of-life scenario? ………
