Obvaezna odredba u europskoj uniji za "bilo koji proizvod
koji je proizveden za standardnu ugradnju prilikom
izvoenja graevinskih radova, ukljuujui objekte
visokogradnje i niskogradnje"
Ciljevi:
Osigurati nesmetan protok svih graevinskih proizvoda
unutar EU.
Ukloniti tehnike barijere za slobodnu trgovinu.
Osigurati isti standard kvaliteta za sve zemlje EU.

DGP osnovni
zahtjevi:
Usklaenost sa esencijalnim zahtjevima:
Harmonizirani (usklaeni) europski standardi (tehniki i
proizvodne zahtjevi za svaki graevinski proizvod).

Svaki usklaeni standar pokriva poseban proizvod.


Potpuna lista usklaenih standarda te njihov status

IZVRNE KLASE (EXECUTION CLASSES - EXC)
12
"Izvrne klase" su jedan od najvanijih novih koncepata koji su
predstavljeni u standardu EN 1090.
Preuzete su iz Eurokoda (Eurocode) 0 (EN 1990) i bit e
prebaene u aneks Eurocoda 3 (EN1993).
To su klasifikacije konstrukcija prema:
The consequences of a hypothetical collapse (life
or economic losses).
The risks associated with the use of the structure (static
actions, fatigue, earthquake ...)
Risks associated with the execution (grades of steel, welded
or bolted joints, ...)
IZVRNE KLASE (EXC)
13
The choice of the EXC is a decision of the designer of the
structure.
Many requirements of EN 1090 are determined according to
the EXC, either in execution or in quality control. Table EN
1990-2 A3 exhaustively listed the requirements for each
EXC.
4 execution classes are established:
EXC1 (the less strict) -> EXC4 (the most strict).
The EXC suppose a rationalization of the design and the
execution. The cost of the structure increases with its EXC.
The EXC can be applied to the whole structure or to single
parts or specific details . A structure may include several EXC.
EXECUTION CLASSES (EXC)
14
How to choose the EXC:
1. Choose the Consequence Class (CC1, CC2 or CC3).
The CC are indicated in Eurocode 0 (EN 1990
Annex B). The National Annexes may give additional
instructions.

CE MARKING (EN 1090-1)
23
The CE marking is a legal declaration of the fabricator of the
structure that their product fully complies with EN 1090-1 and
therefore meets the Construction Products Directive (CPD).

Basic requirements:
Initial Type Testing (ITT) or Initial Type Calculation (ITC).
Factory Production Control (FPC), including the Welding
Quality Management System (WQMS).
The role of the Responsible Welding Coordinator (RWC).
Regular surveillance audits in factory and certification of the
manufacturer, by a Notified Body (NB).

Scope of EN 1090


CE MARKING (EN 1090-1)
25
Initial Type Testing (ITT) or Initial Type Calculation (ITC).

Their objective is to obtain the performance of
each product manufactured.
Since most of times the steels structures are fabricated as
made-to-measure, EN 1090-1 accepts the ITC as a
method of conformity assessment.
The ITC developed for the design of the structure will have
to be based on the Eurocodes (EN 1990, EN 1991, EN
1993, EN 1994, EN 1998)

Factory Production Control (FPC).

EN 1090-1 defines the factory production controls required
to ensure that the structural steel components meet the
minimum technical requirements, as defined in EN 1090-2.
The aim of the FPC is to ensure that the fabricator
can consistently produce their structural components
without changes to their characteristics.
The FPC of the standard EN 1090-1 is similar to the Quality
Control of the standard EN ISO 9001 .
The FPC should include the Welding Quality Management
System (WQMS).



CE MARKING (EN 1090-1)
28
Factory Production Control (FPC).

FPC basis:

To perform regular maintenance and calibration of
equipment and tools.
To develop regular checkups to ensure conformity of
the manufactured products.
To develop systematic management of non-conforming
products.
Suitability of staff qualifications and work procedures.

In general, if the production is done in agreement with EN
1090-2, most of the EN 1090-1 requirements are fulfilled.

Welding Quality Management System (WQMS).

WQMS basis:

To consider the process of welding as a special
process, therefore controlling it constantly and with a
follow-up of the whole process.
To develope and to control the internal procedures for
the execution of weldings.
To control and to document that the staff that executes
the weldings holds a relevant and suitable
qualification.
CE MARKING (EN 1090-1)
31
Welding Quality Management System (WQMS).


The quality requirements must conform to
EN ISO 3834, depending on Execution Classes (EXC):

EXC1: EN ISO 3834-4 Elementary
EXC2: EN ISO 3834-3 Standard
EXC3: EN ISO 3834-2 Comprehensive
EXC4: EN ISO 3834-2 Comprehensive

32
Welding Quality Management System (WQMS).

The manufacturer must draw up their own welding
procedure specifications (WPS) (EN ISO 15609, EN ISO
14555, EN ISO 15620).

WPS must be qualified by a welding procedure
qualification method (WQPR), according to the Execution
Class (EXC).

Welders must be approved according to each WPS and
each welding position.

Ensuring welding personnel are appropriately qualified;
Suitability of welding and associated equipment;
Writing welding procedure specifications (WPSs);

Tasks:
Initial inspection at the factory and review of
the PFC and WQMS, its procedures and successful
implementation.
Issue the corresponding certificate, which will have a shelf life of 1

HR bolts are less sensitive to the excesses of preloaded,

HV bolts are more sensitive to the excesses of preloaded,
compared with HR bolts. In addition, if applied load exceeds

the fault is hard to detect.

Inspection of erection


The condition of the erected structure shall be inspected
for any indication that components have been distorted or
overstressed, and to ensure that any temporary
attachments have been removed.

Geometrical position of connection nodes:
A survey of the completed structure shall be made.

CONCLUSION
The new European standard for fabrication and execution, EN
1090, will be mandatory from 2014.
EN 1090-1: Regulates the CE marking in steel structures.
EN 1090-2: Comprehensively explains the minimum technical
requirements for the fabrication and execution of steel
structures.
The choice of the Execution Class determines the cost of the
structure (affects fabrication methods, level of inspections,
etc.).
EN 1090 requires greater designer's involvement in the
requirements for fabrication, execution and quality control.
