Download or read book A Guide to Attestation of Conformity Under the Construction Products Directive written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Construction Products Directive, CPD, establishes provisions for a single European Market in construction products. It gives six broad essential requirements which the works must satisfy according to the regulations in each Member State. Products must enable any construction works in which they are incorporated to meet the Essential Requirements. As a New Approach Directive the CPD is supported by European technical specifications. Products which comply with the specifications will be eligible for CE marking and therefore to be placed legally on the market throughout the European Community. The Directive requires assessment of conformity of products as a basis for the attestation, or declaration, of conformity of the product with a European technical specification. This declaration enables a manufacturer to place the CE marking on the product. CE marking indicates a presumption of conformity only with health and safety requirements in the Member States: it should not be treated as a quality mark. This Digest describes the legal requirements of the Directive and explains the conformity assessment and attestation procedures. It outlines the implications for manufacturers, specifiers/users, regulators and assessment bodies, and the significance for Building Control, Trading Standards and (in Northern Ireland) Environmental Health Officers. It should be read in conjunction with Digest 397, which gives the background to the Directive and supporting European technical specifications.
