  1. Implementation of CEN/TC 154 standards in Norway Geir Berntsen Norwegian Public Roads Administration Eastern Region

  3. Standards from TC 154 Aggregates • NS-EN 12620 Aggregates for concrete SC2 • NS-EN 13043 Aggregate for bituminous... SC3 • NS-EN 13055-1 Lightweight aggregates SC5 • NS-EN 13055-2 Lightweight aggregates (bit.) SC5 • NS-EN 13139 Aggregates for mortar SC1 • NS-EN 13242 Aggregates for unbound and.. SC4 • NS-EN 13383-1 Armourstone SC4/WG1 • NS-EN 13450 Aggregates for railway ballast SC4/WG2 • Test standards SC6

  4. New standards Guidelines/requirement specification General and special condition of contracts General and special work specifications Tender document Contract document

  5. NOTIFIED BODY notified body within the product areas reinforced concrete products, cement, reinforcing steels, aggregates, products related to concrete and products for masonry. In addition to the role as notified body Kontrollrådet is also accredited both for product certification, quality system certification and environmental certification.

  6. Aggregates - road construction • Important standards: • NS-EN 12620 Aggregates for concrete • NS-EN 13043 Aggregate for bituminous... • NS-EN 13055-1 Lightweight aggregates • NS-EN 13242 Aggregates for unbound and.. • Test standards (several standards) • Attestation of conformity system: • Unbound aggregate – module 4 • Bound aggregates - module 2+

  7. Revision of the Norwegian design guide for road construction – 01.01-2005 • NS-EN 13242 Aggregates for unbound and hydraulically... • NS-EN 13043 Aggregates for bituminous.... • NS-EN 12620 Aggregates for concrete

  8. Example – sub-base layer

  9. Example – asphalt base layer (asphalt gravel)

  10. Wearing course (asphalt concrete)

  11. Design guide - HB 018 General Specification Other requirements and national standards

  12. General Conditions of Contracts Include: Specification and quantity • Reference to HB025, 026and HB018 Special conditions Demands on: • CE-documentation • Certification • Attestation of conformity • FPC • deadlines

  13. Tender documents Contract

  14. Test standards • Translated into Norwegian • Layout changed to fit the rest of the described standards • Question: • relation to official documents? • need for this handbook? • just a working list? • paper or intranet?

  15. NS 3420- Specification texts for building, construction and installations 32 sections Example from section I5 – Roads, railroads and airports:

  16. Standards used in the concrete industry • NS-EN 12620 Aggregates for concrete • NS-EN 13055-1 Lightweight aggregates • NS-EN 13139 Aggregates for mortar Bound aggregates: Attestation of conformity system – module 2+

  17. The Norwegian Concrete Association (Norsk Betongforening, NB) is a professional society with 914 members (as per June 30, 2004). • Make publication for manufacturing concrete • updated according to 12620 • (and other EN-standards)

  18. NS-EN 13450 Aggregates for railway ballast • Jernbaneverket, the Norwegian National Rail Administration, is delayed in the implementation of the EN-standards • producers must be certified from next year

  19. NS-EN 13383-1 Armourstone • Not implemented

  20. Summarize • CEN/TC154 Standards for: • concrete industry– implementation OK • road construction – partly implemented, but still a lot of work to be done • railways – delayed • armourstone – not implemented
