PD CEN/TR 16816:2015 CEN/TR 16816:2015 (E) 4 1 Scope The scope of WG28 Performance Classification is expressed in this Technical Report: Guidance on the determination of end use performance of w
14、ood products: utilization and improvement of existing test methods to estimate service life, in order to give input to the harmonized product standards dealing with the durability requirement of the CPD and future Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 (The Construction Products Regulation CPR). This Technical
15、 Report brings together the evaluations and discussions to date that have occurred within CEN/TC38/WG28 Performance Classification. This technical report does not address panel products specifically. 2 Background 2.1 General The development of performance-based design methods for durability requires
16、 that models are available to predict performance in a quantitative and probabilistic format. The relationship between performance during testing and in service needs to be quantified in statistical terms and the resulting predictive models need to be calibrated to provide a realistic measure of ser
17、vice life, including a defined acceptable risk of non-conformity. Service-life prediction or planning is a process for ensuring that, as far as possible, the service life of a building will equal or exceed its design life, while taking into account (and preferably optimising) its life-cycle costs (I
18、SO 15686 1). For a long time, the international organizations CIB and RILEM have been leading this development, which has had an impact on standardization work nationally, regionally, and globally through ISO. Service-life prediction should be integrated into the design process for constructions, bu
19、t it is also applicable to existing buildings and other construction works. Drivers for establishing service-life planning methodology and routines include the need for building owners to be able to forecast and control costs throughout the design life of a building or construction. It also influenc
20、es the reliability of constructed assets, and hence the health and safety of users. The construction sector is under pressure to improve its cost effectiveness, quality, energy efficiency and environmental performance and to reduce the use of non-renewable resources. A key issue for the competitiven
21、ess of wood is the delivery of reliable components of controlled durability with minimum maintenance needs and life-cycle costs. The importance of service-life issues is reflected in the Construction Products Directive (CPD) with its six essential requirements, which should be fulfilled by construct
22、ion products during a reasonable service life. 2.2 ISO/TC 59/SC14 “Design life” The development of performance-based design methods for durability requires that models are available to predict performance in a quantitative and probabilistic format. The relationship between performance during testing
23、 and in service needs to be quantified in statistical terms and the resulting predictive models need to be calibrated to provide a realistic measure of service life, including a defined acceptable risk of non-conformity. Service-life prediction or planning is a process for ensuring that, as far as p
24、ossible, the service life of a building will equal or exceed its design life, while taking into account (and preferably optimising) its life-cycle costs (ISO 15686 1). For a long time, the international organisations CIB and RILEM have been leading this development, which has had an impact on standa
25、rdization work nationally, regionally, and globally through ISO. PD CEN/TR 16816:2015 CEN/TR 16816:2015 (E) 5 Service-life prediction should be integrated into the design process for constructions, but it is also applicable to existing buildings and other construction works. Drivers for establishing
26、 service-life planning methodology and routines include the need for building owners to be able to forecast and control costs throughout the design life of a building or construction. It also influences the reliability of constructed assets, and hence the health and safety of users. The construction
27、 sector is under pressure to improve its cost effectiveness, quality, energy efficiency and environmental performance and to reduce the use of non-renewable resources. A key issue for the competitiveness of wood is the delivery of reliable components of controlled durability with minimum maintenance
28、 needs and life-cycle costs. The importance of service-life issues is reflected in the Construction Products Directive (CPD) with its six essential requirements, which should be fulfilled by construction products during a reasonable service life. 2.3 CEN/TC 350 Sustainability of Construction Words C
29、EN/TC 350 is responsible for the development of voluntary horizontal standardized methods for the assessment of the sustainability aspects of new and existing construction works and for standards for the environmental product declaration of construction products. The objective is to ensure that LCA-
30、based data for environmental product declarations are consistent, comparable, verifiable and scientifically based. Since the life cycle has to be defined, it is essential to include information on service lives, including reference service lives. Methods for sustainability assessments should be base
31、d on a performance-based approach, and should cover environmental, social and economic performance. 2.4 CEN/TC 351 Construction Products: Assessment of release of dangerous substances The work of CEN/TC 351 is directed to the area covered by the Biocidal Products Directive and REACH. Indicators, cri
32、teria and developed standards will have significant influence in the future on the materials available for construction products and on service-life design options. 2.5 COST Action E37 sustainability through new technologies for enhanced wood durability The Task Force Performance Classification (TFP
33、C) was established at the COST Action E37 workshop in Ljubljana in 2004 2. Its aim was to outline principles for a performance-based classification of wood durability, in particular in using the natural durability of untreated wood and for modified wood products, traditional and non-traditional trea
34、tments and non-biocidal measures for wood protection. The COST Action ended in September 2008, and the TFPC submitted a final report for inclusion in the overall documentation of the Action 3. Standards for durability of wood and wood-based products, not least those produced by CEN/TC 38 Durability
35、of wood and wood-based materials, were of primary interest to the TFPC. They considered that the present standards could not deliver adequate performance-based data. One goal of the Task Force was therefore to address the way durability is treated in standardization. It was conceived that well-found
36、ed proposals on amalgamating modern, material-independent methods of service-life prediction and design with traditional wood assessment methods would be of direct use, e.g. to CEN/TC 38 and the construction industry. The TFPC recognized the use of Reference Service Life (RSL) as a basis for estimat
37、ions of Estimated Service Life (ESL). The estimates are not necessarily reached by use of the Factor Method as in ISO 15686, but the basic principle is useful. To develop a range of performance classes, the scientific community must connect better and cooperate with user groups and stakeholders and
38、define reference products that can be evaluated under reference service conditions. Test results on any commodities, products and components will then be compared with agreed RSLs, and this can form the foundation for a range of performance classes. During this development, existing use classes have
39、 to be taken into account and, if necessary, adapted to suit a PD CEN/TR 16816:2015 CEN/TR 16816:2015 (E) 6 forthcoming system for performance classification. As an input to Factor A (Quality of components) in the Factor Method, it will be necessary to define a range of Resistance Classes to feed in
40、to the assessments. This work is carried forward in CEN/TC 38 WG28 and the WoodExter project. 2.6 WoodExter project The WoodExter project 4 (2007 2010) was a collaborative pan-European-funded research project supported by WoodWisdom-Net and the Building with Wood industry initiative. Its objective w
41、as to take the first steps towards introducing performance-based engineering design for wood and wood-based building components in outdoor above-ground situations. This enables capture of the benefits of design for durability and has delivered a practical engineering tool for service-life estimation
42、 based on a novel methodology. The project focused on cladding and decking as two test case products to rigorously assess this methodology. The project aims were to: characterize climatic influence on performance of timber cladding; characterize new and existing techniques as in-service indicators o
43、f performance prediction; combine the above in an engineering-based model; calibrate and rigorously test the model for the selected Use Class 3 products, cladding and decking; transfer knowledge to enable confident specification of timber cladding and decking. A pilot model has been developed in the
44、 WoodExter project incorporating key input data and the interactions between them that influence performance of cladding www.kstr.lth.se/guideline. The consequence class depends on the severity of consequences in case of non-performance and is described by the factor d . The exposure index I skis co
45、nceived as a characteristic (safe) value accounting for uncertainties. The exposure index is assumed to depend on: geographical location determining global climate; local climate conditions; the degree of sheltering; distance from the ground; detailed design of the wood component; use and maintenanc
46、e of coatings. 2.7 Design value I Rdfor resistance factor depending on material The design resistance index I Rdfor selected wood materials is determined on the basis of resistance class according to Table 1. This is a simplified first step for a material resistance classification based on a balance
47、d expert judgment of moisture dynamics and durability class. The resistance class term is based on a combination of durability class data according to EN 350-2, test data, experience of treatability and permeability for wood species as well as experience from practice. Biological durability is the k
48、ey factor determining performance for wood in different use classes. The robust laboratory and field test methods that exist make it possible to assign a durability rating to timber linked to the intended use class according to EN 335, assuming a worst case scenario. Other factors determine the like
49、lihood of the worst case scenario occurring in practice. PD CEN/TR 16816:2015 CEN/TR 16816:2015 (E) 7 The natural durability of wood is classified into durability classes as described in EN 350-1 and presented as durability classes for heartwood of timber species in EN 350-2. Durability class is a classification on five levels from non-durable to very durable. This is based on decades of data from ground contact field trials for use class 4. The natural durability for a wood species can vary widely. Table 1 Resistance classification
