Foreword
This document (EN 771-1:2011/FprA1:2014) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 125
“Masonry”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This document is currently submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Regulation(s).
For relationship with EU Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
NOTE Due to fact that the Framework Partnership Agreement between the Commission and CEN & CENELEC is not
signed yet, there are currently no New Approach Consultants in place for 2014. Therefore the provisions of CEN-
CENELEC Guide 15 cannot be met.
This shall not prevent the processing of draft standards nor the offering of harmonized standards to the Commission. In
particular, draft standards can be sent to vote without Consultant assessment.
This note will be removed from the Foreword of the finalized publication.

“6.2 Designation code
A designation code may be used as part of the designation as shown in Table 2.
If the designation code of Table 2 is used, unit type, intended use and values for the characteristics with a
position number in the table shall always be declared, but NPD may be used. For the other characteristics,
that do not have a fixed position number in the table, a system with given default values can be used.
NOTE NPD means ‘No Performance Determined. For the use of NPD option, see Annex ZA.
If the declaration by the manufacturer in the declaration of performance (DoP) of one of those characteristics
matches the given default value of the chosen set in the table, then the characteristic can be omitted in the
code.
If the declaration does not match the default value then the specified code of characteristic followed by the
declared value shall be given. All the values – also NPDs – as given in the last three columns of Table 2 have
to be looked upon as default values. If for characteristics the NPD option has been declared instead of the
given default value from the table, the relevant code of each of those characteristics shall be given at the last
position in the designation code.
In Table 2 three different sets (A, B and C) of default values are defined. Set A is a set of default values for
units used in protected masonry. Set B is a set of default values for high precision units used in protected
masonry and set identification C is a set of default values for units used in unprotected masonry.
A manufacturer can create his own sets of default values related to the intended use and the unit type if they
are properly identified and explained.
