Anti-glare screens for roads - Part 1: Performance and characteristics

This standard specifies the characteristics of an anti-glare system in terms of their optical effectiveness and the mechanical performance of its elements. Performance criteria are specified in relation to tests provided in the accompanying EN: Anti-Glare Systems - Test Methods. Optical performance of the AGS may also be determined by calculation as specified in the present standard, clause 5.1.1. This standard also makes recommendations for the design of AGS to minimize maintenance.

General modification
In the title, and in the text of the standard, we replace "anti-glare systems" by "anti-glare screens".
4.4.2 Metallic elements
Replaced the last sentence " After exposure of the metallic elements of the anti-glare system to the salt spray test,
as described in ISO 9227, there shall be no evidence of corrosion, such as rust stains or blistering of the coating."
by the following:
"Hot dipped galvanised steel components shall conform to ISO 1459 and ISO 1461."
4.5 Effectiveness with respect to glare
4.5.1. General
Add the following at the end of 4.5.1 :
"Two types of products are distinguished:
. those designed in order to "block out all the incident rays". They have to comply with the geometrical
condition tan aj ‡ 0,33. This condition is checked by calculation (4.5.2);
. those which do not comply with the condition tan j 0,33, designed in order to "block out partiallya‡
the incident rays". They have to fulfil the threshold value indicated in 4.5.3. This characteristic is
determined by test (4.5.3)".
5 Marking
To make the following modification on the first paragraph "Each anti-glare screen shall carry the
following information, affixed in a readable way on a screen element at least every four meters over the
length of the device.
6 Evaluation of conformity
(Clause to be added to the standard)
6.0 General
The evaluation of conformity is based on :
. initial type testing ;
. factory production control.
6.1 Initial type testing
6.1.1 Controlled elements
The evaluation of conformity relates to the following elements:

a) harmonised characteristics, dependent on the strength of the horizontal loads and the capability of
filtering of the light :
. resistance to wind, in accordance with the indications of 4.7;
. light screening capability, in accordance with the indications of 4.5.2 and 4.5.3;
. durability of light screening capability in screens with synthetics material in accordance with the
indications of 4.4.1
. durability of light screening capability in screens with metallic elements in accordance with the
indications of subclause 4.4.2.
. durability of resistance to wind in screens with synthetics material in accordance with the indications
of 4.4.1
. durability of resistance to wind in screens with metallic elements in accordance with the indications
of 4.4.2.
b) Other characteristics (not harmonised according to the mandate)
. attachment unit, in accordance with the specifications of 4.1;
. provisions with respect to maintenance in conformity with the indications of 4.2;
. characteristics of accessibility in conformity with the indications of 4.3;
. side visibility, in accordance with the specifications of 4.6;
6.1.2 Nature of control
The manufacturer specifies the conditions that have guided the choice of the prototype, and that
guaranty the representativeness of sample tested compared to the production.
He provides description of the product (nature of constituents including raw materials, geometrical
dimensions), to allow the traceability of the product and its constituents.
A new test of the type is necessary for any modification of:
. form;
. nature of materials;
. method of manufacture, for synthetic materials;
. conditions of fixing on the support.
This new test relates to the characteristics or performances influenced by this modification:

6.2. Factory production control
6.2.1 Aim of the control
The manufacturer is responsible for the organization of the effective implementation of his system of
control of production in factory. The aim of this control is to give confidence in the conformity of the
product. It is appropriate, for this reason:
. to consign in writing the tasks and responsibilities for each person involved in the control of the
production;
. to write and to keep the documents defining the control of production in factory.
