spiraloïdaux pour applications générales de structures, lorsque ceux-ci sont utilisés pour l’usage prévu et dans de
mauvaises conditions raisonnablement prévisibles par le fabricant (voir l’Article 4 de l’EN 12385-1:2002).
La présente norme s’applique aux câbles spiraloïdaux pour applications générales de structures qui ont été fabriqués

Overview

EN 12385-10:2003+A1:2008 - published by CEN - is the European harmonized standard for steel wire spiral ropes used in general structural applications. It specifies additional materials, manufacturing and testing requirements to those in EN 12385‑1 (Part 1) for spiral ropes that incorporate zinc or zinc‑alloy coated wires. The standard addresses safety, foreseeable misuse, and conformity with the Machinery Directive (informative Annexes ZA/ZB). It applies to spiral ropes manufactured after publication and includes informative data (typical breaking forces and mass) in annexes.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope & safety: Covers significant hazards and hazardous situations relevant to spiral ropes when used as intended or under reasonably foreseeable misuse.
  • Wire requirements: Round and shaped wires must meet EN 10264‑2 / EN 10264‑3 requirements; hot zinc coated wires have additional ductility, adherence wrap and % total elongation criteria (Annex A).
  • Rope manufacture:
    • No planned outer‑layer wire joints in in‑service rope lengths; welds in outer layer must be ≥10 lay lengths apart and ≥1 lay length from terminations.
    • Weld tensile strength ≥50% of wire grade and outer wire joints must be corrosion‑protected.
    • Wire finish: zinc, zinc‑alloy or combination, but uniform within any one layer.
  • Dimensional tolerances:
    • Measured rope diameter: between 0% and +3% of nominal.
    • Difference between any two diameter measurements (four taken) must not exceed 2% of nominal.
  • Breaking force:
    • Specified as a minimum breaking force, determined by the manufacturer; typical values for common constructions are given in Annexes B (full‑locked coil) and C (spiral strand).
    • Sampling and acceptance testing follow EN 12385‑1 (A.2).
  • Designation & classification: Conform to EN 12385‑2.

Applications

  • Structural engineering uses where spiral ropes are load‑bearing components: bridges, architectural tension systems, balustrades, stay cables and other general structural supports.
  • Situations requiring corrosion‑protected steel wire ropes (zinc/zinc‑alloy coated) and defined mechanical performance under service and foreseeable misuse.

Who should use this standard

  • Rope manufacturers and designers specifying spiral ropes for structural work
  • Structural and civil engineers, specifiers and procurement teams
  • Test laboratories and conformity assessors verifying rope manufacture, dimensions, coating and breaking force
  • Safety/maintenance personnel ensuring compliance with EN 12385 series

Related standards

  • EN 12385‑1 (General requirements) - essential baseline requirements
  • EN 12385‑2 (Designation & classification)
  • EN 10264‑1 / EN 10264‑2 / EN 10264‑3 (steel wire for ropes)

1) The length mass will be increased by approximately 8 % when the rope is preserved with a compound or blocking agent during manufacture. 2) In the case of ropes with a parallel lay centre of round wires, the nominal metallic cross-sectional area, minimum breaking force and approximate nominal length mass should be increased by approximately 4,5 %.
