different from those in EN 10020:2000, EN 10021:2006, EN 10052:1993 and EN 10266:2003.
3.1.1
cold forming
process where the forming to final shape of the welded hollow section is carried out at ambient
temperature
Note 1 to entry: Circular hollow sections produced from normalized strip with a normalized weld seam and
with a cold forming ratio of D/T ≥ 20 may be classified as hot-finished hollow sections.
3.1.2
normalizing rolling (for feedstock material)
rolling process in which the final deformation is carried out in a certain temperature range leading to a
material condition equivalent to that obtained after normalizing so that the specified values of the
mechanical properties are retained even after subsequent normalizing
3.1.3
thermomechanical rolling (for feedstock material)
rolling process in which the final deformation is carried out in a certain temperature range leading to a
material condition with certain properties which cannot be achieved or repeated by heat treatment
alone
Note 1 to entry: Thermomechanical rolling can include processes with an increasing cooling rate with or
without tempering including self-tempering but excluding direct quenching and quenching and tempering.
Note 2 to entry: In some publications the word TMCP (Thermomechanical Control Process) is also used.
3.1.4
steel with improved atmospheric corrosion resistance (for feedstock material)
steel in which a certain number of alloying elements has been added in order to increase its resistance
to atmospheric corrosion, by forming an auto-protective oxide layer on the base metal under the
influence of weather conditions
Note 1 to entry: Steel with improved atmospheric corrosion resistance is often called weathering steel.
Note 2 to entry: Additional information for the use of steel with improved atmospheric corrosion resistance is
given in prEN 10219-2, Annex E.
3.1.5
quenching and tempering (for feedstock material)
process which consists of the following two steps:
— first quenching, where the steel is heated up above AC3 temperature and then rapidly cooled down
in liquids to create a process specific grain structure;
— afterwards tempering, during which the steel is heated up to a certain temperature to adjust the
desired properties and cooled down in air afterwards

4 Product characteristics
4.1 Chemical composition (durability)
The chemical composition determined by the cast analysis and reported by the steel producer shall
comply to the requirements given in prEN 10219-2:2016, Tables A.1, B.1, C.1, D.1 or E.1.
4.2 Mechanical properties (yield strength, tensile strength, elongation and impact
strength)
4.2.1 Under the inspection and testing conditions as specified in prEN 10219-2:2016, Clause 8 and in
the delivery condition as specified in prEN 10219-2:2016, 6.5, the mechanical properties of the finished
hollow section shall conform to the relevant requirements of prEN 10219-2:2016, Tables A.3, B.3, B.4,
C.3, C.4, D.3, D.4 or E.3.
Any heat treatment at more than 580 °C and any heat treatment not processed in the normalizing
temperature range may result to a reduction in the mechanical properties and is therefore not
recommended.
NOTE Flame straightening can be applied in accordance with CEN/TR 10347.
4.2.2 For impact tests, standard Charpy-V-notch test pieces in accordance with EN ISO 148-1 shall be
used. If the nominal product thickness is not sufficient for the preparation of standard test pieces, the
test shall be carried out using test pieces of width less than 10 mm, but not less than 5 mm. The
minimum average values given in prEN 10219-2:2016, Tables A.3, B.4, C.4, D.4 and E.3 shall be reduced
in direct proportion to the actual width of the test piece compared to that of the standard test piece.
Impact tests are not required for specified thicknesses < 6,0 mm.
NOTE If a Charpy test is performed at a lower temperature than specified in the standard and the impact
energy values obtained meet the requirements at the higher temperature, then the material is deemed to conform
to the standard.
4.3 Weldability
The steels specified in this European Standard are weldable as given in prEN 10219-2:2016, Annexes A
to E. General requirements for welding the products in accordance with this European Standard are
given in EN 1011-1 and EN 1011-2.
The maximum carbon equivalent value (CEV) for all grades, based on the cast analyses, given in
prEN 10219-2:2016, Tables A.2, B.2, C.2, D.2 or E.2 shall apply.
When determining the CEV the following formula of the International Institute of Welding (IIW) shall be
used:
Mn Cr++Mo V Ni+ Cu
CEV=C++ +

Care should be taken when welding in corner regions of cold formed hollow sections.
NOTE 1 For more information, refer to EN 1993-1-8, Table 4.2 and see below.
NOTE 2 When welding hollow sections, as product thickness, strength level and CEV increase, the occurrence
of cold cracking in the welded zone forms the main risk. Cold cracking is caused by a combination of the following
factors:
— high levels of diffusible hydrogen in the weld metal;
— a brittle structure in the heat affected zone;
— significant tensile stress concentrations in the welded joint.
NOTE 3 By using guidelines, specified for example in EN 1011-1, EN 1011-2 or any other relevant welding
standard, the recommended welding conditions and the various welding ranges for the steel grades can be
determined. These will vary depending on the product thickness, the applied welding energy, the design
requirements, the electrode efficiency, the welding process and the weld metal properties.
4.4 Tolerances on dimensions and shape
Tolerances of dimensions and shape shall be as specified in prEN 10219-3.
4.5 Dangerous substances
National regulations on dangerous substances may require verification and declaration on release, and
sometimes content, when construction products covered by this standard are placed on those markets.
In the absence of European harmonized test methods, verification and declaration on release/content
should be done taking into account national provisions in the place of use.
NOTE An informative database covering European and national provisions on dangerous substances is
available at the Construction web site on EUROPA accessed through:
http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/construction/cpd-ds/.
5 Testing, assessment and sampling methods
5.1 Chemical composition (durability)
5.1.1 Frequency of tests
For the purpose of FPC (factory production control) the test frequency shall be up to 100 casts per steel
grade.
5.1.2 Selection and preparation of samples for chemical analysis
The preparation of samples shall be in accordance with EN ISO 14284.
5.1.3 Test method
The elements to be determined and reported shall be those given in prEN 10219-2:2016, Tables A.1,
B.1, C.1, D.1 or E.1 for the cast analysis, as applicable and those for determining the carbon equivalent
value.
The choice of a suitable physical or chemical analytical method for the analysis shall be at the discretion
of the manufacturer.

6 Assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP)
6.1 General
The compliance of cold formed welded structural steel hollow sections with the requirements of this
standard and with the performance declared by the manufacturer in the DoP (declaration of
performance) shall be demonstrated by:
— assessment of the performance of the construction product;
— factory production control by the manufacturer, including product assessment.
The manufacturer shall always retain the overall control and shall have the necessary means to take
responsibility for the conformity of the product with its declared performance(s).
6.2 Assessment of the performance of the construction product
6.2.1 General
The assessment of the performance of the construction product shall be performed for all
characteristics included in the standard for which the manufacturer declares performances:
— at the beginning of the production of a new or modified cold formed welded structural steel hollow
section (unless a member of the same product range), or
— at the beginning of a new or modified method of production (where this may affect the stated
properties), or it shall be repeated for the appropriate characteristic(s), whenever a change occurs
in the hot finished structural steel hollow section design, in the raw material, or in the method of
production process (subject to the definition of a family), which would affect significantly one or
more of the characteristics.
Assessment previously performed in accordance with the provisions of this standard, may be taken into
account provided that they were made to the same or a more rigorous test method, under the same
AVCP system on the same product or products of similar design, construction and functionality, such
that the results are applicable to the product in question.

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 10219-1:2016
prEN 10219-1:2016 (E)
For the purposes of assessment, the manufacturer's products may be grouped into families, where it is
considered that the results for one or more characteristics from any one product within the family are
representative for that same characteristics for all products within that same family.
NOTE 1 Products may be grouped in different families for different characteristics.
NOTE 2 Reference to the assessment method standards should be made to allow the selection of a suitable
representative sample.
Products bearing regulatory marking in accordance with appropriate harmonized European
specifications may be presumed to have the performances declared in the DoP, although this does not
replace the responsibility on the cold formed welded structural steel hollow sections manufacturer to
ensure that cold formed welded structural hollow steel sections as a whole is correctly manufactured.
6.2.2 Test samples, testing and compliance criteria
The number of samples of cold formed welded structural steel hollow sections to be tested/assessed
shall be in accordance with Table 1.
