Audit and certification of your Factory Production Control System (FPC) against the requirements from EN 1090-1 for execution and CE marking of steel and aluminium structures.

EN 1090-1 specifies requirements for conformity assessment of performance characteristics for structural steel and aluminium components as well as for kits placed on the market as construction products. The conformity assessment covers the manufacturing characteristics, and where appropriate the structural design characteristics.

EN 1090-1 covers also the conformity assessment of steel components used in composite steel and concrete structures. The components can be used directly or in construction works or as structural components in the form of kits. EN 1090-1 applies to series and non-series structural components including kits. The components can be made of hot rolled or cold formed constituent products or constituent products produced with other technologies. They may be produced of sections/profiles with various shapes, flat products (plates, sheet, strip), bars, castings, forgings made of steel and aluminium materials, unprotected or protected against corrosion by coating or other surface treatment, e.g. anodising of aluminium.

EN 1090-1 covers structural cold formed members and sheeting as defined in EN 1993-1-3 and EN 1999-1-4.

EN 1090-1 does not cover conformity assessment of components for suspended ceilings, rails or sleepers for use in railway systems. For certain steel and aluminium components, particular specifications for performance and other requirements have been developed. The particular specifications may be issued as an EN or as Clauses within an EN. An example is given in EN 13084-7 for single wall steel chimneys and steel liners. Such particular specifications will take precedence in case of non-compliance with the requirements of EN 1090-1.
