This document complements the core rules for the product category of construction products as defined in EN 15804:2012+A2:2019 and is intended to be used as a c-PCR in conjunction with that standard. This c-PCR applies to products within the scope of CEN/TC 166, i.e. to products for chimneys, - which are flue liners with sections and, fittings, and where appropriate insulation, additional walls, outer walls, air supply ducts, terminals and other components which include a new category named as accessories; - with flue liners manufactured from metal, clay/ceramics, concrete or plastic. Chimneys are system chimneys, connecting flue pipes or custom-built chimneys. This document defines the parameters to be reported, what EPD types (and life cycle stages) to be covered, what rules to be followed in order to generate Life Cycle Inventories (LCI) and conduct Life Cycle Impact Assessment (LCIA) and the data quality to be used in the development of EPDs. NOTE The assessment of social and economic performances at product level is not covered by this document.

This document specifies terms and definitions, product requirements and test methods for the construction and performance of loft ladders.

Loft ladders are applicable for infrequent temporary internal access in both domestic and commercial premises.

ISO 13785-1:2002 specifies a screening method for determining the reaction to fire of materials and constructions of façades or claddings when exposed to heat from a simulated external fire with flames impinging directly upon a façade. It is intended for use by producers to reduce the burden of testing in ISO 13785-2:2002 by eliminating those systems that fail the tests described in ISO 13785-1:2002.

The test method consists of observing the behaviour of the façade panel construction to fire and the resulting flame spread on or within the façade construction.

This test method is applicable only to façades and claddings that are not free standing and that are used by adding to an existing external wall.

This test method also is applicable only to vertical elements and is not applicable to determining the structural strength of the façade or cladding.
