15、EN/TR 16496:2013CEN/TR 16496:2013 (E) 3 Foreword This document (CEN/TR 16496:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 351 “Construction products - Assessment of release of dangerous substances”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of
16、the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. This Tec
17、hnical Report gives guidance for the selection and integration of the recommended horizontal product testing protocols on dangerous substances harmonised by CEN/TC 351 into hENs and EADs. Since the work in CEN/TC 351 in cooperation with the European Commission and its Expert Group on Dangerous Subst
18、ances (EGDS) and the product TCs is a work in progress, some subjects and issues remain open for the time being. However, the results of the work of CEN/TC 351 are now mature enough for practical implementation in product standards and EADs. This document takes into account relevant information that
19、 had become available by March 2013 through the activities in the working groups and task groups of CEN/TC 351 as well as the guidance provided by the European Commission. This document is intended as easy-to-use guidance especially for product TCs and EOTA Working Groups (or equivalent groups under
20、 the Construction Products Regulation). Where reference is made to Product TCs, EOTA WGs are also meant where appropriate. PD CEN/TR 16496:2013CEN/TR 16496:2013 (E) 4 1 Introduction 1.1 General The Construction Products Directive 89/106/EEC (CPD) contained six essential requirements for works that g
21、ave rise to a number of essential characteristics for products that had to be covered by European Technical Specifications (ETS) for construction products (harmonised European Standards (CEN) and European Technical Approvals (EOTA). As derogation from this rule, essential requirement No 3 “Hygiene,
22、health and the environment” (ER3) was dealt with via a convention in the ETS which did not take it directly into account, mainly due to the absence of European harmonised test methods. In order to solve this problem, the European Commission gave CEN, the European Committee for Standardization, a man
23、date (M/366) in 2005 to develop European harmonised test methods for the assessment of release or emission of dangerous substances from construction products. From July 2013 the CPD has been replaced by the Construction Products Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 305/2011, CPR). The fundamental principl
24、es of the CPR are the same as for the CPD. The CPR now refers to basic requirements for construction works (BRCWs) instead of ERs, but the same six functional requirements as for the CPD are still there, supplemented by a seventh, the “Sustainable use of natural resources”, and BRCW 3 is extended to
25、 the construction and demolition phase. However, it is expected that the work in CEN/TC 351 according to mandate M/366 will be carried out under the terms and conditions of the CPD with a focus on release and emission in the use phase of construction works. Mandate M/366 requires that CEN develops h
26、orizontal test methods that, as far as possible, are based on existing test methods. This means that European harmonised test methods will not be developed for each construction product separately. The methods should be preferably applicable to all constructions products as defined in the CPR as far
27、 as they are covered by BRCW 3. The intention is to avoid the unnecessary and onerous development of product specific test standards for a multitude of construction products and to minimise the amount of costly testing. The horizontal approach is described in detail in CEN/TR 16098. Furthermore, acc
28、ording to the guidance of the EC (Decision 192, CEN/TC 351 meeting in Berlin on 2013-02-11/12), CEN/TC 351 is asked to provide horizontal methods reflecting the state of the art. Different test methods or testing options can be considered by CEN/TC 351 when technically justified because of different
29、 conditions of use, different end uses or product characteristics, but not because of differences in regulations. In order to apply the horizontal test methods correctly to individual construction products, some product specific additions remain necessary. For example, aspects such as pre-treatment
30、and preconditioning of test specimens cannot be completely specified horizontally but require product specific additions. The necessary product specific additions to the horizontal test standards must be included in the harmonised product standards for the implementation of BRCW 3. The European Comm
31、ission has recently amended ten and is currently amending some further existing construction product mandates issued to CEN to include detailed requirements for BRCW 3. The updated mandates include the requirements for each harmonised product standard. For each hEN or mandated prEN, the relevant rel
32、ease/emission scenarios and the relevant regulated dangerous substances1)are listed. The CEN product TCs are obliged to amend their product standards using the mandate amendments as a checklist for including BRCW 3-related requirements. This Technical Report (TR4 of mandate M/366) gives instructions
33、 on which aspects related to the horizontal test methods are important to address when amending product standards. The report is intended as guidance for CEN product TCs for the revision of product standards in regard to dangerous substances. The report focuses on the use of the harmonised test stan
34、dards. The 1) The term regulated dangerous substances refers to dangerous substances for which performance criteria have been defined in notified regulations in the EEA. PD CEN/TR 16496:2013CEN/TR 16496:2013 (E) 5 possibilities to avoid testing through the use of e.g. descriptive elements like posit
35、ive or negative lists in product standards are not covered by this report. With respect to this issue, the product TCs may consult the guidance given by the European Commission including the amended product mandates. The examples described in Annex A and Annex B show how the guidance given in this T
36、echnical Report can be adopted in a product standard. They illustrate a possible way to implement the horizontal test standards of CEN/TC 351 into product standards by product TCs. The examples are inspired by work in progress on existing harmonised product standards. Their intention is to provide g
37、eneric, non-product specific assistance; they are not the only possible solution confirmed by the powers that be. 1.2 Mandate amendment for BRCW 3 and the product TCs answer The European Commission describes in the amendments to the various product mandates for dangerous substances the tasks the pro
38、duct TCs are expected to carry out, when preparing an answer to the mandate amendment. Hereunder, as an example, the relevant text from mandate M/103 rev.1 on Thermal Insulation Products is cited2)the specifications in the other amendments are comparable. Description of the mandated work The attache
39、d annex provides an overview on national notified regulatory requirements that have been linked by several experts of the Commissions expert group on dangerous substances to products covered under mandate M/103. CEN/TC 88 has to assess the list and to take it completely into consideration when descr
40、ibing and justifying its selection of substances and their relevance in its work programme, in particular on the following aspects: If these substances may be present in products covered by mandate M/103 and in all existing harmonised product standards or harmonised product standards under developme
41、nt; If these substances are likely to emit from the above mentioned products and if these emissions are close to existing limit values in regulations referred to in this document6); If there is available data, particularly where the above mentioned products have been tested in the past on either con
42、tent or emission of these substances by national authorities/bodies7). NOTE The work programme of the product TC will be used for further discussion in the EGDS between the Commission, national experts and experts of the product TC and CEN/TC 351. CEN has to provide in existing harmonised product st
43、andards or harmonised product standards under development either clear and transparent definitions of products8)that will make further requirements for testing for dangerous substances obsolete or/and a set of clear and transparent requirements for products which will be laid down in product standar
44、ds for these specific product families or relevant sub-families. Execution of the mandate The standards resulting from this amended mandate will have to be delivered by no later than 12 months after the adoption of technical specifications developed under the mandate M/366. 2) See: http:/ec.europa.e
45、u/enterprise/standards_policy/mandates/database/index.cfm?fuseaction= search.detail a list of all product standards considered to require declaration categories for the potential release or content of regulated dangerous substances to enable fulfilment of regulatory requirements; the timetable for t
46、he development and the publication of each amended standard; if not all regulated dangerous substances can be dealt with in one phase or generation of the standard, it should be explained how and when to handle the other substances and which steps still need to be taken. 6)The possibility of excludi
47、ng products, components or substances from testing will be dealt with in detail in another document describing a system of defining products “Without Testing” or “Without Further Testing”. 7)If products have not been subject to testing for dangerous substances (or specific substances now mentioned i
48、n this document have not been assessed in the past), it will be helpful to assess the priority given by regulators or the lack of useful technical instruments for the assessment, but does not necessarily indicate that Member State authorities might not insist on these specific requirements during th
49、e development of a standard or after it has been finalised. Therefore, each substance should be assessed carefully by the TC and in case of doubt clarification should be requested from the Commission. 8)If necessary with regard to materials, constituents, admixtures, etc. 1.3 FAQs on mandate amendments for dangerous substances These questions on mandate amendments were posed in the CEN/TC 351/TG2 workshop on 8 March 2011 by the representatives of product TCs. The answers have been provided by the Commission Services and updated afterwards
