This document provides product category rules (PCR) for Type III environmental declarations for rooflights and roof hatches to be used on upstands in flat and slightly inclined roofs. This document complements the core rules for the product category of construction products as defined in [1]. This document is used in conjunction with [1] and does not replace it. The core PCR: — defines the parameters to be declared and the way in which they are collected and reported; — describes which stages of a product’s life cycle are considered in the EPD and which processes; are to be included in the life cycle stages; — defines rules for the development of scenarios; — includes the rules for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and the Life Cycle Impact Assessment underlying the EPD; including the specification of the data quality to be applied; — includes the rules for reporting the predetermined, environmental and health information that is not covered by Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for the product, construction process(es) and construction service(s), as relevant; — defines the conditions under which construction 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. This document applies to rooflights and roof hatches with upstands as well as rooflights and roof hatches supplied without an upstand, intended for use on upstands. The rooflights and roof hatches may be individual or continuous types. The main purpose of rooflights is to transmit daylight into the building. Roof hatches provide mainly access to the roof. But beside their primary purposes these products can be used for different additional functions e.g. — natural ventilation; — fire compartmentation and smoke control; — emergency exit; — natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilation in accordance with [2]. So the functions and the products are not fixed linked to each other. Construction products covered by these complementary product category rules are: — individual rooflights and individual rooflights with upstands; — roof hatches; — continuous rooflights and continuous rooflights with upstands.

 

This document provides product category rules (PCR) guidance for the development of Type III environmental declarations for prefabricated reinforced components of autoclaved aerated concrete or lightweight aggregate concrete with open structure according to EN 15804. This document defines the parameters to be reported, the EPD types (and life cycle stages) to be covered, the rules to be followed in order to generate life cycle inventories (LCI) and conduct life cycle impact assessments (LCIA) and the data quality to be used in the development of EPDs. In addition to the common parts of EN 15804, this document provides guidance for elements made as prefabricated reinforced components of autoclaved aerated concrete or lightweight aggregate concrete with open structure: - defines the system boundaries; - defines the modelling and assessment of material-specific characteristics; - defines allocation procedures for multi-output processes along the production chain; - defines allocation procedures for reuse and recycling; - includes the rules for calculating the LCI and the LCIA underlying the EPD; - provides guidance/specific rules for the determination of the reference service life (RSL); - gives guidance on the establishment of default scenarios; - gives guidance on default functional units for elements. This document is intended to be used for cradle to gate, cradle to gate with options or cradle to grave assessments, when the intention is clearly stated in the system boundary description.

 

The test described determines the rate of leakage of ambient (cold) and medium (warm) temperature smoke from one side of door and shutter assemblies to the other under the specified test conditions. This test method is applicable to door and shutter assemblies and self-closing operable glazed elements of different configurations intended for the purpose of controlling the passage of smoke in case of fire. Wherever door and shutter assemblies are referred to in this document, it also applies to self-closing glazed elements. The fire resistance of glazed elements is determined by tests in compliance with ISO 3009. The acceptable leakage rates for different situations are not addressed in this part of ISO 5925, but rather are specified by the regulations of the controlling authorities. Annex A includes a brief explanation of the test, Annex B describers the test apparatus and Annex C provides guidance on the use of the test data.

 

This International Standard (ISO 13571-1) is one of many tools available for use in fire safety engineering. It is intended to be used in conjunction with fire test data such as those detailed in ISO 13571-5 and models for analysis of the initiation and development of fire, fire spread, smoke formation and movement, chemical species generation, transport and decay, and people movement, as well as fire detection and suppression. This International Standard is to be used only within this context. This International Standard is intended to address the consequences of human exposure to the life-threatening components of fire. The time-dependent concentrations of fire effluents and the thermal environment of a fire are determined by the rate of fire growth, the yields of the various fire gases produced from the involved fuels, the decay characteristics of those fire gases and the ventilation pattern (see B.1). Once these are determined, the methodology presented in this International Standard can be used for the estimation of the time at which individuals can be expected to experience compromised tenability. This guidance can also be applied to estimation of the time limit for rescuing people who are immobile due to injury, medical condition, etc. This International Standard establishes formulae to evaluate the life-threatening components of fire hazard analysis in terms of the status of exposed human subjects at discrete time intervals. It makes possible the estimation of the time at which occupants can experience compromised tenability (see A.2). It enables estimation of a compromised tenability endpoint for each of the fire effluent components, with the most important endpoint being the earliest to occur. The life-threatening components addressed in the 13571 series include fire-effluent toxicity, heat, and visual obscuration due to smoke. In cases where the effluent composition is available, the toxic gas model is used for assessment of fire-effluent toxicity. For those cases where the effluent composition is unknown, an additional mass-loss model using generic toxic potency values is provided in ISO 13571-5.

 

ISO 23693 part 1 aims to simulate the mechanical loads that could be imparted to passive fire protection (PFP) materials and systems by explosions resulting from releases of flammable gas, pressurised liquefied gas, flashing liquid fuels, or dust that may precede a fire. Explosions can give rise to pressure and drag forces and damage to PFP materials in a gas explosion can be caused by the direct effects of pressure and drag loads and by the deflection of the substrate supporting the PFP material. This part of the ISO 23693 series deals with tests to assess the performance of PFP material to the combined effects of pressure and drag loads that occur in the flow path of a gas explosion. This part of the standard excludes specimens whereby the substrate is subject to plastic deformation or brittle failure.

 

This document specifies methods for the calculation of the thermal and fluid dynamic characteristics of chimneys serving one combustion appliance. The methods in this part of this document are applicable to negative or positive pressure chimneys with wet or dry operating conditions. It is valid for chimneys with combustion appliances for fuels subject to the knowledge of the flue gas characteristics which are needed for the calculation. The methods in this part of this document are applicable to chimneys with one inlet connected with one combustion appliance

 

This document specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of non-loadbearing walls. This document is used in conjunction with EN 1363-1. It is applicable to internal non-loadbearing walls (partitions), with and without glazing, non-loadbearing walls consisting almost wholly of glazing (glazed non-loadbearing walls) and other internal and external non-loadbearing walls with and without glazing. The fire resistance of external non-loadbearing walls can be determined under internal or external exposure conditions. In the latter case the external fire exposure curve given in EN 1363-2 is used. This document is not applicable to: a) curtain walls (external non-loadbearing walls suspended in front of the floor slab), unless explicitly permitted under EN 1364-3 or EN 1364-4 which contain details of the methodology to be used; b) non-loadbearing walls containing door assemblies that are tested according to EN 1634-1. Specific requirements for testing glazed elements or non-loadbearing walls incorporating glazing are given in Annex A. Specific requirements relating to the testing of non-loadbearing external and internal walls designed to span horizontally between two independently proven fire resisting vertical structural elements are given in Annex B.

 

This document specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of air transfer grilles (ATG). It is applicable to air transfer grilles intended for installation in building components (typically walls, floors or ceilings). The orientation of the installation of the air transfer grille can be vertical or horizontal. The closing mechanism of the air transfer grille can come from expansion of material and/or from any mechanical or electrical closing device. This test method is valid for fire resistant or fire resistant and smoke control air transfer grilles. An additional test configuration is valid for fire resistant or fire resistant and smoke control air transfer grilles in applications where flame impingement is a risk during open state from start of fire (Annex A). This test method evaluates the behaviour of the air transfer grille when exposed to the standard fire curve described in EN 1363 1 and the standard pressure described in EN 1363 1. It is not the intention of this test to provide quantitative information on the rate of leakage of smoke and/or hot gases or on the transmission or generation of fumes under fire conditions. Such phenomena are only noted in describing the general behaviour of test specimens during the test. The rate of leakage of smoke at ambient temperature or at 200 °C as an optional requirement for ATG with declared smoke control will be confirmed in accordance with EN 1634 3. This test method is not valid for determining the fire resistance of air transfer grilles that are used in ducts because ATG are considered as separating elements. The test method for ATG, used in ducts is described in the corresponding duct standards. This test method is not valid for determining the fire resistance of a fire damper or a fire barrier connected to a duct on either or both sides because an ATG is tested as a fire-separating element on its own. Fire dampers are tested according to EN 1366 2. Non-mechanical fire barriers are tested according to EN 1366 12. This test method is not valid for determining the fire resistance of air transfer grilles in fire doors, shutters and openable windows as specified in EN 1634 1 and EN 1364 2, because the deformation of fire doors, shutters and openable windows in fire conditions differs from the deformation of flexible/rigid walls. Moreover, the location of thermocouples in the door standard is too specific to be handled in this document. All values given in this document are nominal unless otherwise specified.
