Wood poles for overhead lines - Strength grading criteria
This European Standard specifies the requirements for the handling and storage and the characteristics for inclusion in regional/national/local/buyer standards of visual strength grading of softwood and hardwood poles. It also specifies the marking requirements.
This standard identifies the characteristics for which, as a minimum, limits shall be given in visual grading standards or specifications.
This standard applies to both softwood and hardwood poles.
This standard covers only single poles under cantilever and/or compression loading. For example, this standard does not cover poles used as beams.
The provision of poles for use in any overhead line or cable infrastructure shall take into account a range of factors not covered by this standard which will necessitate the specification by the end user of complementary and synonymous attributes to those defined in this standard. This refers to requirements for a number of factors including safety, overhead plant, handling, fittings, installation machinery and working practices including climbing.
Holzmaste für Freileitungen - Kriterien zur Festigkeitssortierung
Die vorliegende Norm legt die Anforde-run-gen an den Umgang und die Lagerung sowie die charakteristischen Merkmale zur Berücksichtigung in regionalen / natio-nalen / lokalen / Anwender-Normen für die visuelle Festigkeits-sortierung von Laubholz- und Nadelholzmasten fest. Sie definiert auch die Anforderungen für die Kennzeichnung.
Die vorliegende Norm kennzeichnet solche charakteristischen Merkmale, für die in Normen oder Festlegungen zur visuellen Festigkeitssortierung unbedingt Grenzwerte festzulegen sind.
Die Norm gilt für Laubholz- und Nadelholzmaste.
Die Norm gilt nur für einstielige Maste als Kragarm und/oder unter Druckbeanspruchung. Diese Norm berücksichtigt zum Beispiel nicht die Verwendung von Masten als Biegeträger.
Der Einsatz von Masten in Freileitungen, erfordert die Berücksichtigung einer Reihe von Faktoren, die in der vorliegenden Norm nicht erfaßt sind; der Betreiber kann seine speziellen Anforderungen mit ergänzenden Anforderungen zu den in der vorliegenden Norm definierten vervollständigen. Das betrifft Anforderungen im Hinblick auf die Eignung einer Anzahl von Faktoren, einschließlich Sicherheit, Freileitungsanlage, Handhabung, Zubehör, Hilfsmittel für die Errichtung und Arbeitsvorgängen einschließlich Mastbesteigung.
Poteaux en bois pour lignes aériennes - Critères de classement de la résistance
La présente norme spécifie les exigences de manutention et de stockage, ainsi que les caractéristiques à introduire dans les normes régionales/nationales/locales/propres à l'acheteur concernant le classement visuel selon la résistance qualifiant les poteaux en bois résineux et en bois feuillus. Elle définit également les exigences relatives au marquage.
La présente norme identifie les caractéristiques pour lesquelles des limites doivent être définies, en tant que minimum, dans les normes ou spécifications relatives au classement visuel.
La présente norme s'applique aussi bien aux poteaux en bois feuillus qu'en bois résineux.
La présente norme s'applique uniquement aux poteaux simples soumis à une charge en porte-à-faux et/ou à une charge en compression. La présente norme ne concerne pas les poteaux utilisés comme poutres, par exemple.
Lors de l'utilisation de poteaux en bois pour un usage au sein de toute infrastructure aérienne de lignes ou de câbles, il est nécessaire de prendre en compte une série de facteurs sortant du domaine d'application de la présente norme, et nécessitant de la part de l'acheteur final, la spécification de prescriptions supplémentaires et synonymes de celles qui sont définies dans la présente norme. Cette nécessité a trait aux prescriptions de conformité à l'égard d'un certain nombre de facteurs relatifs à la sécurité, aux installations aériennes, à la manutention, aux équipements, aux machines d'installation et aux pratiques d'usage, y compris l'escalade.

EN 12510:2001 (E)4IntroductionThis standard is one of five standards covering requirements for visual or machine grading, test methods,determination of characteristic values, methods of specifying durability and sizes.There are many different visual strength grading rules for timber in use in Europe. These have come into existenceto allow for: different species or groups of species; geographic origin; different dimensional requirements; varying requirements for different uses; the quality of material available; historic influences or traditions.Because of the diversity of existing standards for wood poles for overhead lines in use in different countries it iscurrently impossible to lay down a single set of acceptable visual grading rules for all member states.This standard on visual grading rules therefore gives basic principles which shall be followed when drawing upregional, national, local or buyer requirements for some characteristics and sets limits for others.In laying down visual grading rules two main factors should be borne in mind: they should clearly define and limit the strength affecting characteristics in poles so that buyers shall have avery high confidence that poles supplied meet the required characteristic strength value; the rules and the text should be easily understood and be capable of implementation by grading personnel.Examples of standards currently in use and which meet these principles are listed in annex A (informative).SIST EN 12510:2002

Such breaks may be due to internal strains resulting from unequallongitudinal shrinkage, fibres being crinkled by compression or other external forces3.3decaydecomposition of wood by fungi or other micro-organisms resulting in softening, progressive loss of mass andstrength, and often a change of texture and colourSIST EN 12510:2002
