1. What is EN 1090?
EN 1090 defines European requirements for the execution of steel and aluminium structures. It supports CE marking and ensures consistency, safety, and quality through traceability and Factory Production Control.
2. Execution Classes (EXC1–EXC4)
| Class | Typical Use | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| EXC1 | Simple structures | Basic qualification and inspection |
| EXC2 | Standard buildings | Industry-standard control |
| EXC3 | High-performance structures | Enhanced traceability and NDT |
| EXC4 | Critical structures | Full documentation and rigorous control |
3. Key Requirements: Traceability, FPC and CE Marking
- Traceability: Each piece identified by QR or unique ID, tracked through all stages.
- Factory Production Control (FPC): Process monitoring and record keeping.
- CE Marking: Required for structural components sold in the EU.
