This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication
24、of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2009, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by May 2009. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be he
25、ld responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finlan
26、d, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. BS EN 15635:2008EN 15635:2008 (E) 5 0 Introduction 0.1 Structural Eurocodes for l
27、oad-bearing structures and buildings The Commission of the European Communities (CEC) initiated the work of establishing a set of harmonized technical rules for the design of building and civil engineering works, which would initially serve as an alternative to the different rules in force in the va
28、rious member states and would ultimately replace them. These technical rules are known as the “Structural Eurocodes“. Because the determination of the safe load-bearing capacity of static storage systems is a structural engineering task, the Eurocodes are relevant, particularly EN 1993-1-1 and EN 19
29、93-1-3, as far as the design is concerned. The codes and guidelines produced by CEN/TC 344 are intended to amplify and clarify the requirements of the Eurocodes since they particularly apply to design while specification, installation and application and maintenance are considered as special require
30、ments for racking and shelving products. This European Standard considers application and maintenance. 0.2 Additional European Standards for racking and shelving Due to the differences in the shape of structural components, detailing and connection types, additional technical information to the Euro
31、codes is required in order to provide state of the art guidance. This guidance is for the client or consultant specifying the requirement, the designer producing a sound structural design, the installer building the structure and the user who operates and maintains the structure in accordance with t
32、he design specification. This together with the need to provide harmonized design rules, is the reason that the European Racking Federation (ERF) has taken the initiative to support this development of a range of European Standards for specific types of racking and shelving used in specific applicat
33、ions (see bibliography). 0.3 Additional information specific to EN 15635 This European Standard gives additional information to that in Eurocodes EN 1990 and EN 1991, to be used in the structural design of storage systems (see also prEN 15512) and is intended for use by: a) committees drafting desig
34、n related product, testing and execution standards; b) clients (e.g. for the formulation of their specific requirements); c) specifiers, designers, suppliers, installers and end users of the product; d) relevant building control authorities. Expertise in the technical properties of racking component
35、s and knowledge of the specific methods of calculation to determine the safe load carrying capacity data for the products shall be available normally from the manufacturer of that product. These standardized products can have infinite variation in their configuration. Structural engineering in steel
36、 requires special attention for the cold formed sections normally in use and for flexural and (overall) frame instability. Users should refer to prEN 15512 for more information on these aspects. Users of storage equipment should refer to EN 15629 to ensure that the specified layout and configuration
37、 is not in conflict with the methods of operation, ensuring safe operating conditions in the workplace. This European Standard deals with these user-defined aspects. A clear user specification for the provision of a safe storage equipment design is an essential basis to provide and complement safe w
38、orking conditions. This European Standard is also relevant to specifiers and suppliers. BS EN 15635:2008EN 15635:2008 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard gives guidelines for operational aspects relevant to structural safety of storage systems. Such systems operate with heavy mechanical handling eq
39、uipment working in close proximity to static storage equipment. This European Standard minimizes the risk and consequences of unsafe operation or damage to the structure. Some other forms of storage equipment are only partially covered and further consideration, beyond the scope of this European Sta
40、ndard, can be required. This European Standard gives guidance in conjunction with prEN 15512, EN 15620, and EN 15629 to ensure that the specifier, user and designer are aware of the constraints in each others area to allow a safe design to be produced. This European Standard specifically excludes st
41、orage equipment manufactured form materials other than steel (except for certain accessories) and equipment intended to be used for domestic storage purposes 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
