7、the draft EN for the following reasons. 1. For some types of vertically moving doors, compliance with 4.3.4 wil require the introduction of safety devices to cover components that do not fail in a dangerous manner. This is beyond the requirements of the following UK regulations. Management of Health
8、 and Safety at Work Regulations 1999; Workpiace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992; Requirement K5 of Building Regulations, Engiand and Wdes and parallel provisions in the Bdding standards (Scotland) Regulations and the Bdding Regulations (Northern Ireland). 2. No consideration is given t

22、0 Foreword This European Standard was prepared by CENTTC 33 “Windows, doors, shutters, building hardware and curtain walling“ for which the secretariat is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsem
23、ent, at the latest by October 2000, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by October 2000. According to the CENICENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium,
24、 Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Parts of this European Standard have been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the Europe
25、an Free Trade Association, and support essential requirements of EU Directives. For the relationship with EU Directives, see informative Annexes ZA and ZB, which are integral parts of this standard. This standard is part of a series of European standards for industrial, commercial and garage doors a
26、nd gates, which are identified in prEN 13241. No existing European Standard is superseded.

Whenever the term “door“ is used in this standard, it shall be deemed to cover the full scope of types and variances of doors, gates and barriers defined in EN 1243
36、3-1. 4 Requirements 4.1 Basic principles 4.1 .I General Doors should be designed and constructed so that they are capable of being installed, maintained, repaired and used in a safe manner. Doors should withstand both the static and dynamic forces they will be subject to in normal use. Wear, fatigue
37、 and corrosion under normal conditions should also be considered. Significant hazards commonly associated with doors are listed in Annex A. Other hazards may exist in addition to those listed. Where such hazards are present, proper actions should be taken to eliminate such hazards. Mechanical hazard
38、s shall be avoided within the basic design of the door or eliminated by use of suitable guards. Where this is not possible, the hazard locations or remaining risks shall be identified by suitable warning signs. NOTE This standard does not apply to doors already in use at the time of coming into effe
39、ct of this standard, but does apply if existing doors are subsequently upgraded to power operation. 4.1.2 Particular safety considerations in connection with normal use of the door A door should not cause injuries or damages due to - unintentional or uncontrolled movements of a door leaf due to exte
40、rnal influences, such as wind, snow, water, etc., - unintentional or uncontrolled movements of a door leaf due to disintegration of the door system in any way, such as falling down, derailment, overrunning of terminal positions, broken components of the leaf suspension, etc., - intentional movements
41、 of a door leaf (opening or closing) thereby trapping or crushing persons or objects in any position, - lack of recognition due to material (.e. glass), colour etc. causing a person to run or walk into a door leaf or not being aware of the movement of the panel, Q BSI 08-2000 STD-BSI BS EN 12b04-ENG
42、L 2000 9 Lb24bb7 08b8229 838 9- Page 6 EN 12604:2000 - lack of predictability of behaviour (doors opening on to a driveway etc.), - lack of proper operating instructions or instructions which are difficult to understand or to follow, - parts of a door leaf breaking off. Safety arrangements fitted on
43、 doors are not intended to prevent deliberate misuse of the door system. 4.1.3 Mechanical specifications of door characteristics The manufacturer shall provide all technical information to enable the door to be correctly selected and the opening prepared for it. The number of full operational cycles
44、 which the product is designed/constructed for, has to consider the planned maintenance and replacement of parts subject to normal wear and fatigue and shall be permanently stated in a prominent position on the product. For the interpretation of the mechanical performance of doors the following spec
45、ifications should be given: - structural opening sizes and dimension details; - frequence of operation; - operation mode; - degree of automation; - position in building (inside, outside); - provision of pass door; - transparent surfaces; - building materials to be used; - position and types of fixin

NOTE 2 Additional data in regard of mechanical aspects may be requested for specific conditions on site. 4.1.4 Verification The methods
47、 to verify the various requirements of this standard are given in EN 12605, and a summary of the relevant items is given under Annex D. 4.2 Design and construction 4.2.1 General All parts of door installations, whether fixed or movable, including the fixings, should in all respects be of good constr
48、uction, suitable material, adequate strength and free from obvious defects for their intended working life. 4.2.2 Strength The door and its components, including its fixings for attachment to the building, shall be designed so that, during normal operation, no part of the door, including the fixings
49、, shall be permanently deformed. Normal operation does not include the engaging of antidrop devices. The design shall be in accordance with recognized technical rules using adequate safety factors taking into account the most unfavourable static and dynamic forces occurring during the operating cycle or the use of the safety equipments of the door. 8 BSI 08-2000 Page 7 EN 12604:2000 The minimum safety factors specified in Table 1 shall generally be used for design purposes unless an EN Standard exists for a particular component which allows the use of a lower safety fa
