-   die Erzeugnisformen, Sorten und Werkstoffzustände von Knet- und Gussaluminium sowie Aluminium-Knet- und -Gusslegierungen, die für diese Anwendung eingesetzt werden dürfen, zusammen mit Daten für Knet- und -Gusslegierungen über ihre zulässigen Arbeitstemperaturbereiche;
-   die zulässigen Legierungen/Werkstoffzustände, die in den Tabellen A.1 und B.1 für Knetlegierungen und in den Tabellen A.2 und B.2 für Gussstücke angegeben werden;
-   die Technischen Lieferbedingungen, die Grenzwerte der mechanischen Eigenschaften sowie die Grenzabmaße und Formtoleranzen mit Verweisung auf die zutreffenden Europäischen Normen für Knet- und Gussaluminium sowie Aluminium-Knet- und -Gusslegierungen; und
-   zusätzliche spezifische Anforderungen für die Anwendung in Druckgeräten.
Sie gilt für warmgewalzte Platten, kaltgewalzte Bleche/Bänder/Ronden, stranggepresste oder stranggepresste und gezogene Stangen und Rohre, für stranggepresste Voll- und Hohlprofile sowie für Schmiede- und Gussstücke.
In dieser Europäischen Norm werden lediglich die für Druckgräte vorgesehenen Werkstoffe aufgeführt, Herstellung oder Fertigungsverfahren für Druckgeräte werden nicht erfasst; Angaben dazu können in den zutreffenden Europäischen Normen gefunden werden, die unter den Literaturhinweisen aufgelistet sind.

Prescriptions de sécurité des installations à câbles transportant des personnes - Câbles

La présente Norme européenne définit les exigences de sécurité applicables :
-   aux critères de sélection des câbles et de leurs attaches d’extrémité
-   aux coefficients de sécurité (à l'exclusion des câbles freins)
-   aux critères de dépose
-   au stockage, à la manutention, au transport et à l'installation (y compris la mise en tension, le raccordement et/ou l'épissurage) ;
-   à l'épissurage des câbles tracteurs, porteurs-tracteurs et de remorquage à 6 torons
-   aux attaches d’extrémité
-   au contrôle, à la réparation et à l'entretien
et les exigences minimales applicables :
-   aux dispositifs de contrôle magnétique de câble (MRT), visuels et radiographiques et aux modes opératoires pour l'examen des câbles en acier.
La présente norme ne s'applique ni aux installations de transport des marchandises par câble, ni aux ascenseurs inclinés.
Elle comporte des exigences concernant la prévention des accidents du travail et la protection des travailleurs, sans préjudice de l'application des réglementations nationales. La présente norme ne modifie pas les réglementations nationales du secteur de la construction, ni les dispositions de nature réglementaire, ni les dispositions visant à protéger des groupes particuliers d'individus.
NOTE   Dans les pays où elles s'appliquent, les réglementations fédérales, régionales ou locales sont considérées comme des réglementations nationales au regard de la présente norme.
