Overview

EN 1916:2002 is a CEN European Standard that specifies performance requirements and test methods for precast concrete pipes and fittings - unreinforced, steel‑fibre and reinforced - with flexible joints. It applies to units used mainly for the conveyance of sewage, rainwater and surface water under gravity or occasionally at low head of pressure in generally buried pipelines. The standard covers nominal circular bores up to DN 3200 and egg‑shaped bores up to WN/HN 1400/2100 and defines joint seal options (integrated or supplied separately).

Key Topics and Technical Requirements

  • Material and concrete quality: requirements for concrete materials, water/cement content, chloride limits and water absorption.
  • Unit geometry and finish: dimensional and surface finish requirements for precast units.
  • Joints and joint seals: definitions and test/calculation methods (Annex A) for flexible joint seals, including hydrostatic and joint assembly tests (Annex E).
  • Structural performance:
    • Crushing strength test methods and expression of results (Annex C).
    • Longitudinal bending moment resistance tests (Annex D).
    • Serviceability and durability criteria.
  • Special requirements: provisions specific to steel‑fibre concrete, reinforced concrete and jacking pipes (including jacking loads and concrete cover).
  • Testing and conformity: initial type testing, factory production control (FPC), further factory sampling and tasks for certification bodies (conformity evaluation).
  • Marking: required product identification and traceability information.

Practical Applications

EN 1916:2002 is intended for practical use where reliable, tested precast concrete pipes are required:

  • Gravity sewer and stormwater drainage networks
  • Surface water conveyance and culverts
  • Buried pipeline installations subject to low internal pressure
  • Pipe jacking installations (with specific jacking provisions)

This standard ensures products meet minimum structural, watertightness and durability performance for long‑term service.

Who Uses This Standard

  • Precast concrete manufacturers and product engineers (production and design)
  • Civil and drainage system designers and consulting engineers
  • Testing laboratories and certification bodies (initial type tests, FPC)
  • Contractors, utilities and municipal authorities specifying products for sewer and stormwater systems

Related standards and governance

EN 1916:2002 is a European Committee for Standardization (CEN) technical standard adopted by national bodies; users should reference relevant national transpositions and complementary standards for materials, installation and environmental exposure where applicable.

The SIST EN 1916:2003 standard provides a comprehensive framework for the performance assessment of concrete pipes and fittings, including unreinforced, steel fibre, and reinforced varieties. This standard specifically addresses products designed for the conveyance of sewage, rainwater, and surface water, establishing rigorous performance requirements that ensure functionality and safety in real-world applications. One of the key strengths of this standard is its detailed specification of testing methods, which aligns with the requirements outlined in table 1. This rigorous approach guarantees that all precast concrete pipes and fittings are evaluated under consistent criteria, fostering reliability in performance and durability. The inclusion of various types of concrete pipes, including those with flexible joints and integrated seals, showcases the standard's versatility and comprehensiveness. Moreover, the nominal sizes defined within the standard - not exceeding DN 3200 for circular bore units and WN/HN 1400/2100 for egg-shaped bore units - ensure that a wide range of applications can be accommodated. This is particularly relevant for entities involved in the construction and maintenance of sewage and drainage systems, as it provides assurances regarding the structural integrity of the products used. The relevance of SIST EN 1916:2003 extends beyond just compliance; it plays a critical role in the sustainable management of water resources and infrastructure development by ensuring that concrete pipes and fittings meet necessary safety and performance standards. By setting clear guidelines for testing and quality assurance, this standard helps mitigate risks associated with the conveyance of environmental water, ultimately supporting better public health and environmental protection initiatives. In summary, the SIST EN 1916:2003 standard is vital for manufacturers, engineers, and construction professionals, providing a robust foundation for the quality and performance of concrete pipes and fittings. Its thorough scope, clear performance requirements, and adherence to rigorous testing methods establish it as a cornerstone document in the field of civil engineering and infrastructure development.

Die Norm SIST EN 1916:2003 befasst sich umfassend mit Betonrohren und -formstücken, die unarmiert, stahlfaserverstärkt sowie verstärkt sind. Der Anwendungsbereich dieser europäischen Norm umfasst präferenzielle Anforderungen, die in Tabelle 1 festgelegt sind, und beschreibt die Prüfmethoden für Rohre und Formstücke, die sowohl mit flexiblen Verbindungen als auch mit integrierten oder separat gelieferten Dichtungen ausgestattet sind. Diese Standards decken Nennweiten bis zu DN 3200 für Einheiten mit kreisrunder Bohrung oder WN/HN 1400/2100 für Eierbohrungen ab. Die Stärken der Norm liegen in ihrer umfassenden Definition der Leistungsanforderungen sowie den klar beschriebenen Prüfmethoden, die eine hohe Sicherheit und Qualität in der Verwendung der Produkte gewährleisten. Darüber hinaus wird die Norm durch ihre Anpassungsfähigkeit an verschiedene Verwendungszwecke, insbesondere für die Abwasser- und Regenwasserableitung, die im Wesentlichen unter dem Einfluss der Schwerkraft oder gelegentlich bei niedrigem Druck betrieben wird, gestärkt. Die Relevanz der SIST EN 1916:2003 ist in der heutigen Bau- und Umweltindustrie unbestreitbar, da sie nicht nur die technische Qualität der Produkte sichert, sondern auch sicherstellt, dass die Materialien den modernen Anforderungen hinsichtlich Nachhaltigkeit und Effizienz entsprechen. Durch die Berücksichtigung unterschiedlichster Anwendungsszenarien in Rohrleitungssystemen, die in der Regel vergraben sind, trägt die Norm dazu bei, die Umweltbelastung zu minimieren und die langfristige Funktionalität der Infrastruktur zu garantieren.

La norme SIST EN 1916:2003 établit un cadre essentiel pour les tuyaux et accessoires en béton, qu'ils soient non armés, en fibres d'acier ou renforcés. Son champ d'application inclut des exigences de performance spécifiques, énoncées dans le tableau 1, et des méthodes d'essai rigoureuses. Ces spécifications sont cruciales pour garantir la qualité des tuyaux préfabriqués, permettant une utilisation efficace dans le transport des eaux usées, des eaux pluviales et des eaux de surface, principalement sous gravité ou, dans certains cas, à faible pression. Parmi les points forts de cette norme, on trouve la clarté des exigences de performance, qui sont adaptées aux applications pratiques. Les dimensions nominales, ne dépassant pas DN 3200 pour les conduits à section circulaire et WN/HN 1400/2100 pour ceux de forme œuf, sont spécifiquement définies pour assurer une compatibilité et une interchangeabilité entre les éléments. Cela permet de simplifier la conception et l'installation des systèmes de drainage. De plus, la norme traite des joints flexibles avec des joints intégrés ou fournis séparément, offrant une souplesse dans la mise en œuvre. Ce détail est crucial pour le transport horizontal des fluides, surtout dans les configurations de réseaux enterrés, qui sont fréquentes dans les infrastructures urbaines. La pertinence de SIST EN 1916:2003 est également évidente par son alignement avec les besoins contemporains en matière de durabilité et de résistance des matériaux. En intégrant des méthodes d'essai robustes, la norme garantit que les produits en béton répondent aux exigences de performance à long terme, ce qui est essentiel pour la durabilité des infrastructures. En somme, la norme SIST EN 1916:2003 est un document fondamental qui non seulement définit des standards de qualité pour les tuyaux en béton, mais aussi assure leur efficacité dans des applications cruciales pour la gestion des eaux. Sa rigueur et sa clarté en font un outil indispensable pour les professionnels du secteur.
