DINEN 16485:2014-07EN 16485:2014 (E) 5 Introduction European Standard EN 15804 provides core pro
26、duct category rules for all construction products and services. It provides a structure to ensure that all Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) of construction products, construction services and construction processes are derived, verified and presented in a harmonized way. This European Standa
27、rd provides rules for Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) specifically for wood and wood-based products. It complements the core product category rules for all construction products and services as established in EN 15804. An EPD communicates verifiable, accurate, non-misleading environmental i
28、nformation for products and their applications, thereby supporting scientifically based, fair choices and stimulating the potential for market-driven continuous environmental improvement. The standardization process has taken place in accordance with EN ISO 14025. All common issues are covered horiz
29、ontally for all product types in order to minimise vertical (branch specific) deviations. All common issues are covered horizontally for all wood and wood-based products in order to minimise intra-sectoral deviations. EPD information is expressed in information modules as defined in EN 15804, which
30、allow easy organization and expression of data packages throughout the life cycle of wood and wood-based products. The approach requires that the underlying data should be consistent, reproducible and comparable. In line with EN 15804, the EPD is expressed in a form that allows aggregation (addition
31、) to provide complete information for buildings. This standard does not deal with aggregation at the building level nor does this standard describe the rules for applying EPD in a building assessment. The standard deals with a limited number of quantifiable parameters as predefined in EN 15804. Futu
32、re revisions of EN 15804 may lead to the incorporation of additional predetermined parameters. This European Standard provides the means for developing a Type III environmental declaration of wood and wood-based construction products in the context of the suite of standards that are intended to asse
33、ss the sustainability of construction works. This suite of standards includes: EN 15643-1, Sustainability of construction works Sustainability assessment of buildings Part 1: General framework EN 15643-2, Sustainability of construction works Assessment of buildings Part 2: Framework for the assessme
34、nt of environmental performance EN 15978, Sustainability of construction works Assessment of environmental performance of buildings Calculation method EN 15804, Sustainability of construction works Environmental product declarations Core rules for the product category of construction products CEN/TR

36、 This European Standard provides general Product Category Rules (PCR) for Type III environmental declarations for wood and wood-based products for use in construction and related construction and in-service processes. This European Standard complements the core rules for the product category of cons
37、truction products as defined in EN 15804 and is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 15804. NOTE The assessment of social and economic performances at product level is not covered by this standard. The core PCR: define the parameters to be declared and the way in which they are collated and re
38、ported; describe which stages of a products life cycle are considered in the EPD and which processes are to be included in the life cycle stages; define rules for the development of scenarios; include the rules for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and the Life Cycle Impact Assessment underlying
39、the EPD, including the specification of the data quality to be applied; include the rules for reporting predetermined, environmental and health information, that is not covered by LCA for a product, construction process and construction service where necessary; define the conditions under which cons
40、truction products can be compared based on the information provided by EPD. For the EPD of construction services, the same rules and requirements apply as for the EPD of construction products. Additionally to the common parts of EN 15804, this European Standard for wood and wood-based products: defi
41、nes the system boundaries; defines the rules for modelling and assessment of material-specific characteristics such as carbon storage and energy content of wood; defines allocation procedures for multi-output processes along the wood chain; defines allocation procedures for reuse, recycling and ener
42、gy recovery; includes the rules for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and the Life Cycle Impact Assessment underlying the EPD, including the assessment of carbon and energy content of wood; provides guidance/specific rules for the determination of the Reference Service Life (RSL). This European S
43、tandard is intended to be used for cradle to gate or cradle to grave assessment, provided the intention is properly stated in the system boundary description.
