scope:

This European Standard specifies requirements for roofing products used for assembly into coverings for pitched roofs, made from aluminium sheet with or without additional organic coatings. This Standard establishes the general characteristics, definitions, labelling of the products, together with requirements for the materials from which the products can be manufactured, and is intended to be used either by the manufacturer to ensure that his products comply with the requirements before they are despatched from the factory or by the purchaser to verify that the products comply when purchased. It specifies the requirements for products which enable them to meet all normal service conditions. Products can be prefabricated or semiformed products as well as strip, coil and sheet for on-site-formed applications (e.g. standing seam roofs). Applies to all discontinuously laid and fully supported roofing products made of aluminium sheets. No requirements for supporting construction, design of roof system and execution of connections and flashings are included.
