Overview

EN 40-4:2005 - Lighting columns, Part 4, sets European requirements for reinforced and prestressed concrete lighting columns. It applies to columns up to 20 m high for post‑top lanterns and up to 18 m for side‑entry lanterns. The standard focuses on structural performance (wind resistance) and passive safety (vehicle impact), plus production, durability and marking requirements for precast concrete lighting columns.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Scope and application: Reinforced and prestressed concrete lighting columns, heights as above; includes spun concrete variants and precast production rules.
• Structural performance: Resistance to horizontal (wind) loads verified in accordance with EN 40-3 series (EN 40-3-1, EN 40-3-2, EN 40-3-3) - verification may be by testing or calculation.
• Vehicle impact (passive safety): Performance under impact assessed using test methods in this document or referenced standards (e.g., EN 12767).
• Materials and concrete classes: Reinforced columns - minimum concrete class C30/37; prestressed columns - C35/45 or higher (EN 206-1 referenced).
• Durability and cover: Durability requirements follow EN 13369; concrete cover minimums and life‑expectancy provisions (Annex A) are included.
• Surface and cracking limits: Surface blemishes are permitted within limits (diameter ≤ 25 mm, depth ≤ 5 mm); maximum permitted crack width in cement‑rich layer 0.2 mm.
• Reinforcement detailing: Rules for spacing, transverse reinforcement and minimum transverse reinforcement ratios for spun concrete (e.g., 0.15% for foot diameters ≥ 800 mm, 0.05% for < 400 mm).
• Impact protection for doors: Type test to IK08 (EN 62262) for access doors; five impacts around the door area required.
• Production tolerances and marking: Total length and mass tolerances (mass ±10%); durable marking with manufacturer, year, standard reference and unique product code; technical documentation and conformity control procedures defined.
• CE marking & conformity: Annex ZA defines CE marking application and relationship with EU Construction Products Directive and relevant Eurocodes (EN 1992-1-1).

Practical applications

• Design and manufacture of street lighting, motorway and urban lighting columns made from reinforced or prestressed concrete.
• Specification and procurement guidance for municipalities, road authorities and utilities requiring compliant, durable lighting columns.
• Test laboratories and conformity assessment bodies evaluating wind-resistance, impact resistance and production controls.
• Manufacturers producing precast concrete columns seeking CE marking and compliance with European market requirements.

Who uses this standard

• Concrete lighting column manufacturers
• Structural designers and bridge/road engineers
• Specification writers, procurement authorities and asset managers
• Testing laboratories, notifiers and conformity assessment bodies
• Installers and maintenance contractors

As it is not in the current version of EN 40-1, it is repeated above. 4 Materials Materials shall conform to EN 13369:2004, 4.1. 5 Geometrical properties 5.1 General Product dimensions shall conform to EN 40-2 and where applicable defined on the basis of the specific design and calculations. 5.2 Production tolerances Production tolerances shall conform to EN 40-2, the total length being measured from ground level. Dimensions shall be measured in accordance with 13.2.2. The tolerance on column mass shall be ± 10 %. 6 Design and design verification The column shall be designed to safely sustain the dead loads and the wind loads specified in EN 40-3-1, and shall be verified in accordance with one of the following methods: a) Clauses 7.1 and 12.2.2
b) Compliance with 7.1 and EN 13369 (for common rules), and the following: • geometrical data (main dimensions and main cross sections, including tolerances) of the lighting column as Clause 5 and 7.5; and
• properties of the materials and constituents products used that are needed to determine, according to the national provisions valid in the place of use, or possible use, the resistance to horizontal loads.
c) Compliance with the purchaser's specific design It may be assumed by the manufacturer that where he is requested to produce the lighting column following the provisions of the client’s specific design details supplied by the purchaser, such provisions are compliant with requirements for regulatory marking in the place of intended destination.

The manufacturer shall declare the test method used. NOTE A single test method will be adopted when the EN 40 series of product standards is revised. The number of impacts shall be five and shall be applied around the circumference at the mid height of the door. For circular columns these shall be equally spaced around the remaining circumference excluding the door. For octagonal columns these shall be on each of the adjacent faces excluding the door. After testing, no visible crack shall appear. The test shall validate those products with an outside diameter (or flat dimension) equal to or less than the diameter being tested, with the same wall thickness and material strength. For mechanical impact test, a type shall be defined by the shape, the dimensions and type of concrete/reinforcement of the section at mid door height. For sections other than circular or octagonal, the provisions defined above shall apply.

The manufacturer shall choose one of the three following methods. 12.2.2.2 Verification by calculation Verification by calculation shall be conducted in accordance with EN 13369:2004, 4.3.3.2 and EN 40-3-3 for each product family defined by the manufacturer.

The tested samples shall cover the range of design stress of the products’ sections for each product family defined by the manufacturer. When this calculation method is applied to other plants, with the same production conditions, complementary verification tests covering the stress range shall be performed on two sample columns of the yet untested production from each other plant. Type test result shall be considered positive when each individual test is positive. 12.2.2.4 Verification by testing Verification by testing shall be conducted in accordance with EN 13369:2004, 4.3.3.4 and EN 40.3.2. Two tests shall be performed (one on a product with approximately the maximum length, one with approximately the smallest length) for each product family defined by the manufacturer. Type test result shall be considered positive when each individual test is positive. 12.3 Sampling For random sampling the minimum number of articles from each lot to form the control sample shall conform to Table 1. A lot shall consist of columns with or without brackets of the same nominal height/projection, type and design strength. Table 1 — Control sample size related to lot size Number of articles in the lot Minimum number of articles in the control sample 1 to 3 1 4 to 500 3 501 to 1 200 5
12.4 Dimensional verification All dimensional parameters given in EN 40-2 and applicable to the lot shall be verified. These include: a) length/projection; b) cross-section – at each end and at all changes in cross-section; c) door opening; d) cable entry slot; e) planting depth; f) flange plate dimensions; g) base plate dimensions; h) lantern fixing diameter, length and angle. Tolerances shall be in accordance with EN 40-2:2004, Clause 5.

12.6 Material verification The material specification shall be verified by a manufacturer’s inspection in accordance with EN 10204. Records shall be in place to establish that the verified material(s) have been used in the articles in the lot.
12.7 Design verification Design shall be based on loads specified in accordance with EN 40-3-1, and shall be verified in accordance with Clause 6.
