17、BS EN 16648:2015EN 16648:2015 (E) 4 Introduction Increases in the worldwide mobility of cultural heritage and the emergence of new participants have had significant consequences on packing and transport. In previous years there have been several initiatives to regulate all aspects of collection mobi
18、lity. Therefore the need to structure and harmonize packing and transport practices and to define responsibilities has become more important than ever. Transportation of cultural heritage requires an appropriate range of knowledge, skills and competencies of those involved in the process. This Europ
19、ean Standard is the result of a collaboration of a large range of professionals from most European countries. It is intended for all parties involved in the transport of cultural heritage. This European Standard defines the successive steps of moving objects, using relevant means of transport. This
20、European Standard lists requirements (the word shall is used) and provides recommendations (the word should is used) for the safe and secure transport of cultural heritage. BS EN 16648:2015EN 16648:2015 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard defines principles to be considered when transporting movabl

33、 shall comply with national and international law and regulations. Sustainability should be taken into account when using this standard. Transport shall only take place following an agreement between the owner/custodian, the commissioner, the transport agent and confirmed in writing. Many different
34、parties can be involved in arranging and undertaking transportation.

Responsibility for the object(s) shall be clear at all stages of the transport. The ch
35、oice of the transport agent and his subcontractors shall be approved by the owner/custodian. Other involved parties (e.g. insurers) may request involvement in the decision.

All relevant documents shall be archived according to legal requirements. 6 Before transport 6.1 Risk assessment Any transport of an object involves risks. The plannin
38、g of the transport shall begin with the assessment of these risks, in order to choose the mode of transport appropriate to the particular situation, to take necessary measures to avoid damage to the object(s) and whether to send a courier (see Annex A). The risk assessment of a transport is based on
39、 the characteristics of the object (see EN 15946:2011, 5.1.2 “Risks related to the object”) and issues related to moving (see EN 15946:2011, 5.1.3 “Risks related to moving cultural property”).

40、ments. This decision should be approved by all parties involved. The significance of the object(s) shall be taken into account when planning shipments.

41、 shall be adhered to. 6.2 Qualifications of the transport agent The transport agent shall have the solvency, resources, capacity, knowledge, training, qualifications, technical expertise and management capabilities required for delivering a safe and secure, high quality and specialized transport ser

43、conditions applying to the transport which have been agreed between the commissioner and the owner/custodian. 6.4 Transport planning and coordination Transport planning identifying all steps of the operation as well as orders shall be done as far in advance as possible. Transport planning shall be i
44、n accordance with the specifications provided by the commissioner. Transport planning shall take into account the following: a) the routing (e.g. access at collection and delivery points, size of vehicle, load plans); b) any insurance/indemnity terms and conditions; c) all human and material resourc
45、es needed at each stage of transport; d) transshipment and scheduled stops. The transport agent should appoint a coordinator with the appropriate experience and provide backup cover as necessary. The transport agent and the commissioner shall maintain regular communication and keep each other fully
46、informed of relevant issues. 6.5 Insurance / indemnity cover The commissioner and the owner/custodian shall inform the transport agent the start and end dates of cover and all insurance/indemnity conditions relevant to the shipment.
